4 Coleoptera Genera
Pyrochroa? Last joint of palpi larger subsecuriform; penultimate joint of the torri
remarkably bifid; joints of the antennae subcylindrical; antennae inserted in
a groove of the eye. (Hents.)
Chauliognathus, Hents. Antennae nearly as long as the elytra, mandibles are =
mated, entire, apex acute; maxilla with the upper lobe, at least,
extensible during life; palpi with their last joint larger, subsecuriform;
body soft; elytra shorter than the abdomen; head generally attenuated behind
[Family Lampyrides - Gen. Cantharis Lin. Telephorus, Olis. Malthinus Lat]
Macrosiagon, Hentz. (Rifilphorus Bose Teal) Tarsi with all their joints simple; palpi
subfiliform; anyennae pectinated; maxillae with the upper lobe filiform,
longer than the palpi; scutellum not apparent; abdomen abruptly trun =
cated; elytra dehiscent, longer than the abdomen. [ Family Mordellonae]
Amblycheila Say [ Matricola - Jour Aead.] Labrum transverse; mandible, prominent,
toothed; labial palpi elongated; mentumy tooth robust, prominent
canaliculate before, acute; antennae 2d joint 2/3 the length of the 3d;
wings none; elytia united; eye very small hemispherical entire;
clypeus at tip entire 21
Aretharia, Say [ Near Cicindela & Lebia] Elytra truncated; terminal joint of the
maxillary palpi acicular; anterior tibia simple. /2 33
Spheracra Say [ Odacantha in Vol. 2] Elytra entire; tibiae emarginate; terminal
joint of the tarsi profoundly bilobate; nails simple; head as long
behind the eyes as before them; thorax subcylindric; anntenae much
shorter than the body; basal joint much shorter than the head; joints
excepting the 2 not very unequal in length, subcylindric; babrum emarginate
palpi with terminal joint somewhat fusiform, subacute; mentum with a
prominent acute central tooth. p 10
Coptotomus, Saoy. Tarsi 5= jointed; posterior feet natatory, base of the thighs naked;
antennae 11 = jointed, at least as long as the head & thorax, filiform; scutel
distinct; terminal joint of the palpi somewhat compressed at tip and
emarginate p 35
Molosoma, Say. Labrum entire; palpi filiform terminal joint of the maxillaries
much longer than the 2d, slightly attended at the tip; antennae before
the eyes, inserted under the margin, gradually thicker at tip, four
last joints larger; body cylindric; thorax truncate at base; abdomen
with the penultimate segment longest; tibia spinous a little arquated.
[ near Oxytelus.]

Cerambyx Lin. Fab. Antennae ceatceous; feelers four; thorax spinous or gibbous; elytra linear
jaws obtuse & armed with a single tooth. Feelers filiform; lip bifid.

Prinos Fab. Feelers 4, filiform; jaw cylindrical & entire; lip short & membraneous; antennae
setaceous. Eyes reniform embracing the base of the antennae; thorax flat, marginate
body oblong, depressed

Lamia Fab. Feelers 4, filiform; jaws horny, bifid; lip cleft, horny; antennae setaceous,
and elongated; head large obtuse declining; eyes reniform, embracing the base
of the antennae; thorax cylindrical & uneven; elytra as long as the abdomen
body cylindrical

Stenocorus Fab. Antennae 4, anterior ones filiform, posterior elevated; antennae setaceous
long & filiform; eyes reniform embracing the base of the antennae; thorax
rounded; elytra length of the abdomen, frequently with two teeth at the
apex; body somewhat cylindrical.

Callidium Fab. Feelers 4, elevated; jaw membraceous & bifid; lip 2=cleft
antennae setaceous. Head ovate obtuse, inserted; thorax flat with rounded & rather prom=
inent margin; elytra rigid, length of the abdomen; body flatish somewhat depressed and
