Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs on the Coleoptera, 1911, Vol. 2 Since publishing the last paper on new Myrmedoniids (mem. Col., I have carefully arranged all the Aleocharinae in my col lection and find many undescribed forms; these are defined in the present paper. The material in my collection has been obtained from many sources. That most expert of collectors Herbert H. Smith, contributed a very large set of admirably perfect specimens in all parts of the series, from the Catskill Mountains, and Prof. H. F. Wickham and Rev. J. H. Keen have also sent me very full sets, the former from various parts of the Rocky Mountain system and Iowa, the latter from Metlakatla and Queen Charlotte Islands, British Columbia. In addition, Mr. H. C. Fall many years ago, gave numerous well mounted examples from southern California, and others were sent me by Emil Brendel from Iowa. Norman Criddle from Manitoba, C. F. Baker from California and Chas. Dury from Cincinnati; these were augmented by occasional species from numerous other collectors forming a goodly number in the aggregate. Finally, I have myself collected them with assiduity during the past quarter century in California, Texas and parts adjacent, St. Louis, Vicksburg, maritime Virginia, in Rhode Island and elsewhere, so that the material at hand can well be imagined to be tolerably full. The present paper completes the description of virtually all the species known to me from these sources. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
