1915.] Leng, List of the Carabide of Florida. 579 
hind angles of the thorax, and especially his comparison with Stenolophus 
ochropezus, absolutely disagree with the larger insect. Leconte in 1846, 
guided perhaps by specimens received from Melsheimer, Ziegler or Halde- 
man, who were likely to have derived the name from Say, treated rectus 
as it Is treated here; and he appears to have hastily changed his identifica- 
tion later on observing the printed length. His later description of the hind 
angles is incorrect, differing from his own earlier description and from Say’s 
original description. 
Loxandrus rectangulus Leconte. Enterprise, two specimens 
(Schwarz). Rests upon these original specimens and possibly a synonym. 
Loxandrus crenatus Leconte. Not rare (Schwarz); Jacksonville 
(Slosson Coll. January-March); Enterprise (Schaupp Coll.); Lakeland, 
Nov. 9, caught by sifting leaves on shore of Lake Parker; Sebastian, Aug. 
(Genung). Confined to Florida and Alabama, Mobile Co. (Léding). 
In addition, Blatchley cites L. saphyrinus Chaudoir, which name was 
also used by Austin for specimens from Tampa, but it appears to me that 
Florida specimens are all reflecus. There is very little to separate reflexus 
from saphyrinus, of which it seems to be the Floridian representative, but 
if Leconte’s name is used, it must exclude Chaudoir’s. Mr. Léding in Ala- 
bama finds also lucidulus, lucens, minor and iris. It may be noted in con- 
cluding the tribe Pterostichini, that feebly represented as it is in Florida 
(thirty species against forty-six in New Jersey), that representation is 
mainly composed of the genera Loxandrus, Evarthrus and Ferestria, hardly 
known near New York; the typical Pterostichus and Amara of northern 
woods having scarcely any standing in Florida. Furthermore, a glance at 
the localities given shows that it is mainly the northern half of the State 
that shelters what remains of the tribe, especially in Evarthrus and Lopho- 
glossus. It's therefore in keeping with these facts that Loxandrus, the one 
strongly Floridian genus, should be the only one known in Cuba, its beach 
environment being possibly suggestive of the method of transportation. 
Tribe LIcrINInI. 
Diplochila laticollis Leconte. Biscayne Bay, Lake Worth (Slosson 
Coll. January-March); Ormond, March 17, beneath bark (Blatchley); 
Fort Myers, March 30, at light (Davis). Extends northward to Connecticut 
(Champlain, Psyche, XVIII, p. 36), westward to Nebraska. Common 
at light in Mobile Co., Ala. (Léding). 
Diplochila major Leconte. Common (Schwarz); Lake Worth (Hamil- 
ton); Biscayne Bay (Slosson Coll. January-March); Fort Myers, March 30,
