Stæger dubitanter missa, parum a femina differre ; Of Stæger's specimens we have four in our coUection labelled as femoratus, one male and three females, but the females were all neglectus, and the female of femoratus was thus not known to Zetterstedt. Zetterstedt continues that he had found similar females in Scania, but as these no doubt also belong to neglectus, the species femoratus is probably not known north of Denmark; to be sure Wahigreen records it (Entom. Tidskr. à rg. 33, 1912, 33, 4), but as he puts a querry after it, I think he is not sure. 4. C. pulchellus Kow. 1874. Kow. Verhandl. zool. bot. Gesell. Wien, XXIV, 461,3, Taf. XIII, Fig. 15. â 1903.
