Abstract
Authors have followed Kirby in referring American specimens ofEntomoscelisChev. to the EurasianadonidisPallas.. One female, without label, and two male examples ofadonidisfrom the Elbruz Mountains of northwestern Persia are before me, and they differ from American specimens, which are described below asamericanan. sp., in the form of the aedeagus and in slight characters of color and sculpture.E. adonidisis said to occur from southern France and Germany to Persia and southern Siberia. There is no reason at present to believe that its distribution is continuous with that of the American form.
