BULLETIN.

The matter in the ‘Bulletin’ consists of about 24 to 36 articles per volume, which
relate about equally to Geology, Paleontology, Mammalogy, Ornithclogy, Entomology,
and (in former volumes) Anthropology, except Vol. XI, which is restricted to a ‘Cata-— i
logue of the Types and Figured Specimens in the Paleontological Collection of the Geological
Department,’ and Vols. XV, XVII, and XVIII, which relate wholly to Anthropology. Vol-
ume XXIII and the later volumes contain no anthropological matter, which is now issued
separately as ‘Anthropological Papers.’

Article V.— SUPPLEMENT TO PRELIMINARY LIST OF THE
COLEOPTERA OF THE WEST INDIES.

By Cuarues W. Lene, B. S., Honorary Curator OF COLEOPTERA
AND ANDREW J. MutTcHueEr, ASSISTANT.

In the preface to the Preliminary List of the Coleoptera of the West
Indies! we asked our readers to communicate any papers or manuscript
notes bearing on the subject and expressed the hope of publishing later the
records of the collections in this and possibly other museums. We have
received a number of such communications in response to our request and
have examined the material in the National Museum. To all who have
thus aided us we are grateful, but particularly to Mr. E. A. Schwarz, to
whose great knowledge of the subject and great patience and liberality in
communicating his knowledge to us we owe much more than we can repay.
In addition to the identified specimens, now added to the published records,
there exists in this and other museums, a mass of unidentified material con-
sisting largely of undescribed species of which at present no satisfactory
records can be published. The additions (about 200), corrections, and
notes that follow are derived either from the sources named or from the ex-
tensive West Indian material accumulated in American Museum and are in
each instance credited to the proper source by an abbreviation. The ex-
planation of such abbreviations and, concurrently, the authorities are given
in the following list.

Wickham, H. F. In letters.

The statement in the Preliminary List “ total absence of the Silphide’”’,
requires modification. While true of Silpha and Necrophorus and of Bury-
ing Beetles in the sense we intended, it is not true of all Silphide, as that
family is composed in the Henshaw Check List. There is a species of
Aglyptonotus in the British Museum from St. Vincent and Grenada (Ent.
Mont. Mag., LI., p. 121). Mr. Schwarz has collected a species of Aglyp-
tonotus at Cayamas, Cuba, and the National Museum contains specimens
of a Ptomophagus or Choleva from Porto Rico. These are certainties; there

is furthermore a probability that species of Scotocryptus or Parabystus will
be found, as they are inquilinous on Melipone bees, which occur in the West
Indies (Schwarz).

The islands of Trinidad and Tobago, which are politically part of the
West Indies, are situated close to the mainland of South America, of which
faunistically they become part. In Cicindeline the introduction of Trin-
idad records would require the addition of four species of the genus Odon-
tochila (Trinidad Field Nat. Club, I, 1892, p. 109, and Walther Horn in
Gen. Ins.) and, in other families, many similarly alien records. We shall,
therefore, in future omit from the West Indian List species and genera
occurring only in the islands above named.

In the following pages the additional records of distribution and the
species to be added to our Preliminary List, the latter being indicated by
asterisks, are arranged according to that List; errors which have been
noticed are corrected, and various other items of interest are included. It
will be noted that an atmosphere of doubt, necessarily surrounding records
based on the various identifications of different authors in difficult groups,
is indicated, but this eannot be dissipated until each of such ‘groups is
studied in detail.

Family I. CARABID.

Subfamily CIcINDELINE.

The authors have published (Bull. American Mus. Nat. Hist., XXV,
1916, pp. 681-698) a Descriptive Catalogue of the West Indian Cicindelinze
which involves the separation of the records for Tetracha sobrina and Cicin-
dela suturalis to show the distribution of their varieties, the revival of
Fleutiaux and Sallé’s variety pallipes under argentata, the description of a
new variety of 7. sobrina from Antigua, and of two new species of Cicindela
from Cuba. On account of these changes and of numerous additional rec-
ords, we think it advisable to publish a complete revised list of this sub-
family.

Tetracha Hope.

Tetracha acutipennis (Dejean). Hispaniola, Cuba.

Tetracha sobrina (Dejean). St. Bartholomew?.

Tetracha sobrina var. infuscata (Mannerheim). Hispaniola, Porto
Rico, St. Croix, St. Bartholomew. ;

Tetracha sobrina var. antiguana Leng and Mutchler. Antigua.

Tetracha carolina (Linné). Cuba.

Tetracha carolina var. occidentalis (Klug). Cuba, Grand Cayman.

Tachyta autumnalis Bates. Cuba, Montserrat (U.S. N. M.).

* Pterocharis eggersi Ehlers. St. Thomas (Tr. Am. Ent. Soc., 1883, p. 36).

Lachnophorus leucopterus Chevrolat. Porto Rico (A. M. N. H.).

Selenophorus alternans Dejean. Porto Rico (Gundlach).

Selenophorus chalybeus Dejean. Jamaica, Bahamas (U. S. N. M.);

Selenophorus propinquus Putzeys. Antigua (Putzeys).

Selenophorus pyritosus Dejean. Porto Rico (Gundlach).

Selenophorus sinuatus (Gyllenhal). Antigua (Putzeys).

Putzeys (Stett. Ent. Zeit., 1878) treats S. cwprinus Dejean as a synonym
ot S. discopunctatus Dejean and S. eneocupreus Dejean as a form of S.
beauvoist Dejean, established on darker specimens with the sides of thorax
less rounded and other details.

Stenous tibialis (Chevrolat). Porto Rico (Gundlach).

* Panageus fasciatus Say. Porto Rico (Gundlach).

* Panageus thome Schaum. Cuba (U. 8S. N. M.). This has been
treated as a synonym of the Mexican quadrisignatus but is possibly distinct.

Panageus quadrisignatus Chevrolat. Cuba, Porto Rico (A. M. N. H.).

Aspidoglossa vulnerata Putzeys. Cuba, Porto Rico (Gundlach).

* Clivina bipustulata (Fabricius). Cuba (A. M. N. H.); it is possible
that this and the preceding records refer to the same insect.

Oxydrepanus rufus (Putzeys). Guadeloupe (Fleutiaux).

Stratiotes tracundus Putzeys. Dominica (A. M. N. H.).

Morio monilicornis (Latreille). Porto Rico, Culebra, Jamaica, Haiti;
possibly introduced in pine lumber from the United States (Schwarz).

Rhombodera flavipes (pallipes err. typ.) Leconte. Occurs also in Jamaica
FEE. IN: ML).

Rhombodera bicolor Leconte which may be a variety of flavipes (Leconte),
(compare G. H. Horn, Tran. Am. Ent. Soc., X, p. 159) and possibly not
different from atrorufa Reiche. Porto Rico (Gundlach and Van Zwaluwen-
burg).

Lebia viridis Say. Dominica, Porto Rico (A. M. N. H.).

Lebia biteniata Chevrolat. Dominica, Porto Rico (U.S. N. M.).

* Lebia elevata (Fabricius)? Guadeloupe. The identity of the Guade-
loupe insect is doubtful. See Fleutiaux, Ann. Ent. Soe. Fr., 1889, p. 361.

* Apenes opaca Leconte. Bahamas (Wickham).

Apenes parallela Dejean and A. morio (Dejean) may be synonymous.

Apenes parallela (Dejean). Bahamas (A. M. N. H.).

* Apenes variegata (Dejean). Antigua (Putzeys). Under thisname both
Van Zwaluwenburg and Gundlach record a species from Porto Rico in the
genus Cymindis; it seems probable, however, that all the West Indies species
recorded in that genus really belong to Apenes.

* Zuphium americanum Dejean. Porto Rico (Gundlach, A. M. N. H.).

Brachinus gilvipes Mannerheim. Porto Rico (Gundlach).

Galerita beauvoist Chaudoir. Barbados (Cockerell).

* Casnonia insignis (Chaudoir). Porto Rico (Gundlach).

Calosoma alternans Fabricius. St. Croix (U. S. N. M.); St. Vincent,
Barbuda (W. I. Bull.).

The American species, * C. calidum (Fabricius) is also credited to Porto
Rico by Van Zwaluwenburg, but the identification may be subject to revi-
sion.

Megadytes fraternus Sharp. Porto Rico (Gundlach, U.S. N. M.).

Megadytes giganteus (Castelnau). Porto Rico (Gundlach and Van
Zwaluwenburg). The Cuban species may not be identical; it is labelled
Vherminiert in U.S. N. M. Coll.

Eunectes occidentalis White is a synonym of E. sticticus (Linné); also
the citation on p. 398 of Eretes sticticus (Linné) for the Guadeloupe species is
an error, there being but one species involved. The author of FE. occidentalis
appears to be Erichson.

Stethoxus intermedius (Jacquelin Duval). Culebra (U.S. N. M.).

According to Mr. F. Wintersteiner, who has studied our collections of
Hydrophilide, the West Indian species intermedius (Duval) is not identical
with the Central American species ater (Olivier).

. The record of Hippodamia 13—punctata (Linné) from the Antilles is
questioned by Mr. Schwarz; the species being distinctly northern and its
occurrence almost impossible unless introduced. In the same category may
be placed the recent records of * H. convergens Guérin, Porto Rico (Van
Zwaluwenburg); and * Coccinella 9-notata Herbst, Cuba (A. M. N. H.).

Euzxestus piciceps Gorham is the same as E. minor (Sharp), see Champion
Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. 1913, p. 79, and E. erithacus (Chevrolat) is probably
not more than a variety of E. parki Wollaston.

The genus Botrodus Casey belongs probably to Murmidiinz; the same
applies to the genus Lapethus Casey (Grouvelle, Ann. Soe. Ent. France, 1912,
pp. 297, 298). The genera Stylulus and Cryptzoon are misplaced, but there
is some doubt as to their family position.

Synchita laticollis (Leconte). Montserrat, Cuba (U.S. N. M.).

Family XVII. MON(DID.

There is a question as to whether the genus Monadus was described by
Horn or Leconte. The description of the type species appears in a paper by
Horn but Leconte’s authorship of the species is clearly indicated by Horn’s
statement that Dr. Leconte communicated the description. The author of
the genus, nevertheless, appears to be Horn and our citation should be cor-
rected.

tion of the genus Chelonariwm is uncertain; its species live on bushes, not
on the ground like the Byrrhide. It is treated as a separate family by Brues
and Melander, and is placed in the subfamily Chelonarine under Byrrhide

Polycesta thome Chevrolat is a synonym of P. porcata (Fabricius); P.
angulosa Jacquelin Duval is a synonym of P. excavata Blanchard; Acmeodera
contigua Kerremans is a synonym of A. flavomarginata (Gray); Halecia
aureomicans (Nonfried) and Hilarotes chalcoptera (Jacquelin Duval) are both
synonyms of Halecia nitidicollis (Castelnau); Gyascutus carolinensis Horn
belongs in Hippomelas.

The identity of Ps:loptera aurifera (spelled in error aurifer) and aurata is
questionable. .

Family XLII. MALACHIID/.

The spelling of the family name requires correction, as above.

Family XLII. CLERID.

Thanoclerus should read Thaneroclerus and the locality Guadeloupe
should be inserted for 7. girodi Chevrolat; Fleutiaux (Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr.,
1889, p. 417) records 7. buqueti (Lefebvre) with T. girodi as a synonym, but
buqueti bemg East Indian Sse aa in Gen. Ins.) girodi is probably the
the Guadeloupe species.

Champion’s paper, in Trans. Entom. Soc. Lond., 1913, makes some
changes in this family: Ozognathus is not Antillean and the species referred
thereto may be a Cryptorama; Petaliwm pulicariwm (Gorham) is a synonym
of P. antillarum (Pic); Muirosternus levis Gorham belongs to Eupactus
Leconte; Priotoma brevis? Gorham is P. insularis Champion. —

Xylographus belongs in Cioide.

*Canthidium melanocephalum (Olivier). According to Olivier (Ent.,
I, 3, pp. 173, 174,) the type of this species was described from Guadeloupe
but von Harold, in Coleopterologische Hefte, I, pp. 29-30, gives Brazil as
the locality for the species and more recent authors have followed the latter
record, excepting Fleutiaux and Sallé, who very likely followed Olivier, as
they had no specimens of this species to verify the records.

* Epitrix cucumeris (Harris). Porto Rico (Jones, Van Zwaluwenburg).
The identity of the Porto Rican insect with E. cucumeris of the United
States is insisted upon by Mr. Schwarz, who made the identification.

Systena basalis Jacquelin Duval. Haiti (A. M. N. H.).

Lactica scutellaris (Olivier). Jamaica (A. M. N. H.). as

Aphthona compressa (Suffrian). Haiti, Bahamas, Culebra (U.S. N. M.).

* Calaspidea grossa (Linné). Jamaica (Spaeth).

* Oxynodera variegata (Linné). Antilles (Spaeth).

* Physonota gigantea Boheman. Antilles (Spaeth).

Strike out Aspidomorpha bajula Boheman, which according to Spaeth
is a synonym of the East Indian A. sancte crucis (Fabricius).

A number of changes in position, ete., are proposed in Coleopterorum
Catalogus, pt. 62, as follows: Mesomphalia enea (Olivier) is placed in Pseu-
domesomphalia Spaeth; M. exclamationis (Linné) is placed in Hilarocassis
Spaeth; Chelymorpha angusticollis Suffrian, C. flavicollis Boheman and C,
swartzii Thunberg are placed in Stoiba Spaeth; C. argus (Lichtenstein) is
treated as a variety of C. cassidea (Fabricius) and C. polysticha Boheman
as a variety of C. multipunctata (Olivier). The other generic names under
which Spaeth catalogues the species formerly placed in Coptocycla are not
yet adopted by the authors.

Coptocycla bistripunctata Olivier. Antigua (U.S. N. M.). This name
was probably cited in error by Fleutiaux and Sallé for sexpunctata Olivier.

* Coptocycla propinqua (Boheman). Haiti (A. M. N. H.).

Coptocycla subsignata (Boheman). Haiti, Porto Rico, Cuba (A. M.
IN Se): ;

Coptocycla guttata (Olivier). Porto Rico (Van Zwaluwenburg, Jones);
Cuba, Jamaica, Haiti (U.S. N.M.). (Champion, in Biologia).

* Coptocycla guttata var. fuliginosa (Olivier). Guadeloupe (Champion,
in Biologia Cen. Am., Col., VI, pt. 2, pp. 194-195).

According to Champion, J. c., guttata Boheman nec Olivier, 1808, and
hamulata Boheman are synonyms of signifera (Herbst), but he appears to

have overlooked the discrepancy between Olivier’s original publication in
1790 and his later work (Cf. H. S. Barber, Proc. Ent. Soc. Washington,
. XVIII, 1916, pp. 117-118) by which guttata (Olivier) is validated.

Family LIT. BRUCHID.

Bruchus chinensis (Linné). Porto Rico (Van Zwaluwenburg).

* Bruchus amicus Horn. Porto Rico (Van Zwaluwenburg).

* Bruchus sallei Sharp. Porto Rico (Van Zwaluwenburg).

Bruchus obtectus Say should be substituted for B. obsoletus Say, when
that name is used for the bean weevil; add the locality Porto Rico (Van
Zwaluwenburg). .

Bruchus rufimanus, change author to Boheman.

Bruchus sinuatus Fahraeus (fide Horn) is a variety of B. quadrimaculatus
Fabricius.

Bruchus tetricus Gyllenhal. Cuba (U.S. N. M.).

* Caryoborus nucleorum (Fabricius). Cuba (U.S. N. M.).

Spermophagus hoffmanseggi Gyllenhal was proposed to replace robinie
Olivier nec Fabricius. It is not equivalent to robinie Fabricius as we have
it in the Preliminary List but to robinie erroneously cited in Olivier, Ent.,
IV, 1795, no. 79, p. 7, pl. 1, fig. 4 a, b.

Family LI. TENEBRIONID.

By a regrettable error, the records for the genus Celotazis derived from
Guadélupe Island in the Pacific Ocean, were included in our Preliminary
List. ’ They should all be stricken out, as well as the record for Conibius
on page 461.

Dacoderus dominicensis Horn. Cuba (U.S. N. M.).

* Phaleria variabilis Quedenfeldt. Porto Rico (Gundlach).

Strike out Rhipidandrus micrographus, as a misidentification of Eutomus
cornutus.

Strike out Cherostus as synonymous with Eutomus and C. jamaicensis as
synonymous with E. cornutus.

Change Eutomus sulcatus Gorham to Rhipidandrus sulcatus (Gorham).
Numerous references to these genera are given in two papers: Proc. Ent.
Soc. Washington, XV, 1913, pp. 188-193 and XVI, 1914, pp. 175-177. A
letter from H. S. Barber states that he has recently examined larvee of Huto-
mus fulvomaculatus (Dury) and E. cornutus (Arrow) and finds that they
agree closely with the larvee of Hledona and Bolitotherus.

Family LIV. ALLECULID.

Allecula flavipes Jacquelin Duval. Bahamas (U.S. N. M.). The ref-
erence of West Indian species to Allecula, which is possibly an exclusively
Old World genus, is questionable in the opinion of Mr. Schwarz; as is also
the identification of Isoméra sericea Say, which should perhaps read J. valida
Schwarz, described from Florida.

our Preliminary List may be more properly placed in Alleculide and, though
we have information of species of Orchesia, Canifa and Conomorphus occur-
ring in Cuba from Mr. Schwarz, not one of them has been described.

Family LXX. SCOLYTID.

The studies of Dr. A. D. Hopkins have made many changes necessary.
The family name Scolytidz is restored and many species names are added,
though it may be that some of them are intended to represent taxonomic
units, which may later be shown to constitute a smaller number of biological
units. Assuming for the present that each represents a species, the following
list of Cryphaline is to be substituted (fide Hopkins, Rept. 99) for that given
in our Preliminary List.

In addition, the following notes are derived from various sources: Kleine
treats Hypothenemus eruditus Westwood and plumerie as identical; he also
cites Cryphalus mucronifer Wollaston from St. Vincent.

Xyleborus ferrugineus (Fabricius). Porto Rico (Gundlach).

Xyleborus inermis Eichhoff. Cuba (Kleine); Porto Rico (Van Zwaluwen-
burg).

Xyleborus grenadensis Hopkins. Porto Rico (U.S. N. M.).

Xyleborus sacchari Hopkins. Porto Rico (U. S. N. M.).

XAyleborus perforans (Wollaston). St. Kitts, Barbados, St. Vincent
(Barber); Jamaica (Cockerell).

It is to be noted that where these names are not repeated in Dr. Hopkins’s
list it is possible that the same insect is there recorded as a new species.
Until his paper on Scolytid synonymy is published such matters can not be
definitely treated.
