p'^ THE AiNNALS AND MAGAZIiNE OF NATURAL UlSTOllY [NINTH SERIES.] No. 26. FEBRUARY 1920. XXI. — Further Notes on the Fahrician Types 0/ Heteroniera (Coleopiera) in the Banks Collection. By K. G. Blair, B.Sc, F.E.S. (Published by permission of the Trustees of the British Museum.) In the ' Annals ' for May 1914 (ser. 8, vol. xiii. pp. 482-490) I published notes on the Fabrician types of Tenebrio-nidaj in the above collection. The present paper supplements these with notes on the types belonging to other families of the Heteromerous series. A few species not included in the Heteromera that were placed by Fabricus in the genus Cistela are also noted, with a brief indication of their true systematic position. Wliere no comment is added the species may be taken as being generally well known and correctly identified. Family Alleculidae [Cistelidce). I. Lobopoda lurida. Helops luridus, Fab. Syst. Ent. 1775, p. 258. Brazilia. I have not been able to identify this with any other described species, and as the name appears to have been drop])ed from recent catalogues a rcdescription of the species may be of value : — Elongate-ovate, moderately nitid, dark reddish brown Ann. tt; Ma(/. N. J list. Ser. 1). Vol. v. 11
