Chlaenius (Pachydinodes) hamifer Chaudoir, 1856 View in CoL

Chlaenius bihamatus Chaudoir, 1856 a View in CoL junior synonym of this species was described from specimens originating in Hong Kong, and is listed under that name by Chaudoir (1876b) and Bates (1889). Andrewes (1919a) questioned whether these specimens originated from Hong Kong "when C. bihamatus View in CoL was described (Bull. Mosc. 1856, iii, 210). Chaudoir said he had received two examples taken by Capt. Boys in N. India, and another from Tranquebar; C. hamifer View in CoL (I.c. 209) was said to come from Java. In the Monograph (Ann. Mus. Civ. Gen. 1876, 62) he tells us that he has two examples of C. bihamatus View in CoL from Java and one from Hong-Kong, while G. hamifer View in CoL now inhabits " toute la presqu'ile Cisgangetique." It is evident to me that in 1856 he transposed the localities, but no word of this appears in the Monograph, where the necessary rectification is made.Listed as occuring in Hong Kong by Saha et al.
