Cicindela - Antennae filiform; clypeiis shorter than the labrum; maxilla monodactyle
with two very distinct palpi, of which the latter hairy; mentum trifid, the
divisions nearly equal in length; feet slender, elongated; anterior tibia -
without a sinus near the tip - Page 9, 17, 21, 30, 32, 40 for species
Scarabaeus, Lin. Lat. Antennae ten jointed, the club composedof oblong oval
lamellae, which have an almost common insertion; body ovoid, convex;
mandibles with their external edges crenulated; maxillae cornlus,
dentated; labrum entirely concealed; palpi filiform. (Geotrufies Fab.)
Pages, 26,40, 41, 42
Blaps - Mentum small, or moerately large; quadrate or orbicular; palpi terminated
by a larger joint; terminal joint of the maxillary palpi securiform;
mandibles naked at their base; clypeus terminated by a straight
line; laburm transverse; antennae moniliform at tip, 3rd joint minch
longer than the fourth; back flat; thorax almost quadrate; elytra
acute at tip - page 18. | p.5Coleoptera Genera
