Book Description
Excerpt from Supplement 1919 to 1924 (Inclusive) To Catalogue of the Coleoptera of America, North of Mexico It has seemed necessary to depart from the plan, strictly followed in the catalogue, of accepting the views Of the most recent author. In the Cicindelidae, for instance, this would have exalted some recently described forms by comparison. We have endeavored in such cases to indicate their relation to previously described species. In the case of certain catalogues and revisions printed in Europe, ignorance Of American species has caused a few evident errors which we have not followed. But as a general rule, we have not attempted to review the work for six years Of 213 authors, a manifestly impossible task.

Besides the usual information pertaining to author(s), date and page of publication, the type locality, location of name-bearing type, first reference establishing each synonym, and etymology for many patronymic names are provided for species-group names. Genus-group names are listed with the author(s), year of publication, page citation, type species with manner of fixation and etymology for most. The geographical distributions of all species-group taxa are briefly summarized and their state and province records are indicated. About 2500 references are listed with publication dates for many in order to assess priority of names.Several new nomenclatural acts are introduced including one new genus-group taxon, one new replacement name, three changes in precedence, five new genus-group synonymies, 65 new species-group synonymies, one new species-group status, and 12 new combinations.The work includes also a discussion of the notable private North American carabid collections, a synopsis of all extant world geadephagan tribes and subfamilies, a brief faunistic assessment of the fauna, a list of North American fossil Geadephaga, a list of North American Geadephaga larvae described or illustrated, a list of species described from specimens mislabeled as from North America, and a list of unavailable names listed from North America.

Book Description
Excerpt from Second and Third Supplements, 1925 to 1932 (Inclusive), To Catalogue of the Coleoptera of America, North of Mexico In the second supplement to the Catalogue of Coleoptera of America, north of Mexico, we record the species, subspecies, and aberrations, described during the period from January 1, 1925, to December 31, 1930. As in the catalogue and first supplement, the new species are serially numbered, With subspecies and varieties indicated by the addition of a letter to the serial number of the species with which they are allied. An unusual number of names have been proposed for so-called aberrations; these have not been numbered, but are not necessarily synonyms. Many are recog nizable variations which, however, have been regarded by some author or reviewer as of less than subspecific rank.
