Taxonomic review of the Neotropical Tetragonoderus quadriguttatus assemblage (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Cyclosomini) with description of T. deuvei, new species, and new West Indian and Nearctic locality records

The Tetragonoderus (Peronoscelis) quadriguttatus assemblage is a postulated monophyletic part of the intersectus complex. This assemblage is characterized against a background that includes review of a classification of the genus and comparison, in the form of a key, to other unrelated Western Hemisphere genera that share elongate tibial spurs with Tetragonoderus Dejean. The principal, easily observed feature that unites the three members (T. laevigatus Chaudoir, 1876; T. deuvei, new species (type locality: Cuijaba, Mato Grosso, Brazil), and T. quadriguttatus Dejean) of the quadriguttatus assemblage is the four-spotted elytra (two spots per elytron). These species are treated in detail, including key, synonymy (as required), comparisons, description (external and male genitalic features), habitat (if known), locality data, and geographical range map. Also, T. subfasciatus Putzeys, 1846, the elytral color pattern of whose members may be confused with the spotted pattern of the quadriguttatus assemblage, is treated similarly. The following new synonymies were established: T. quadriguttatus Dejean 1829 = T. columbicus Steinheil 1875 = T. lacordairei Chaudoir 1876 = T. tetragrammus Chaudoir 1876; and T. laevigatus Chaudoir 1876 = T. chaudoiri Liebke 1928 (replacement name for the junior homonym, T. unicolor Chaudoir, 1876). Lectotypes are designated for T. unicolor Chaudoir, T. lacordairei Chaudoir, and T. subfasciatus Putzeys. A neotype is designated for T. quadriguttatus Dejean. New distribution records in the West Indies for T. quadriguttatus are recorded for the islands of Grand Cayman, Jamaica and Hispaniola. These records may be the result of recent natural overseas dispersal from northern South America, or they may be the result of human-mediated accidental introduction, or a combination of both. The southern Floridian (Nearctic) records for T. laevigatus probably represent a recent accidental introduction through commerce, followed by dispersal through flights of adults

A taxonomic review of the subtribe Pericalina (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Lebiini) in the Western hemisphere : with descriptions of new species and notes about classification and zoogeography

A taxonomic review of the lebiine sub tribe Pericalina in the Western Hemisphere, this paper includes a treatment of the genus-groups, a key to the genera, keys to subgenera, species groups, and species of each polybasic genus, descriptions of new species and new subgenera, new locality records for previously described species, re-rankings, and new synonymy. In total, 111 species and subspecies are treated, 26 of which are described as new

A taxonomic review of species of the Neotropical pericaline genus Oreodicastes Maindron, 1905 (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Lebiini)

Based on adult character states, a key is provided to the seven known species of Oreodicastes Maindron 1905 (type species Oxyglossus subcyaneus Chaudoir 1843). Two new species (with type locality) are described: O. virginia (Fa zenda dos Campos, Virginia, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil) and O. zikani (Macieiras, Itatiaia, state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)

I\u27ll Change the Shadows to Sunshine

Is that a tear in your eye, dear? Is that a sigh I hear? Why be so sad and so lonesome When there is someone so near? Let me but share in your sadness, Always be near when you’re blue, I’ll change the sadness to gladness I’ll take the shadows from you. CHORUS I’ll change the shadows to sunshine, I’ll kiss the tears away, I’ll change the snows of December, Into the flow’rs of May. I’ll change the sighing to smiling, And all the long years thru I’ll change the shadows to sunshine, Sweetheart, for I love you. If you’ll just say that you love me, Sunshine will creep in your heart. We’ll make life only a story And love shall play the big part I’ll build a garden of Roses, And if the storms come some day, I’ll hold you close in my arms, dear,Till all the clouds pass away
