Excerpt from Catalogue of the Coleoptera of America, North of Mexico, 1920 The names of authors are usually abbreviated to the first three or four letters of their names; the few cases which are differently treated are explained below in the list of signs and abbreviations used. Authors' names are usually in parenthesis if the Species was originally described in a different genus; the correct placing of the parenthesis involved reference to many books and is not entirely complete. The citations are indicated by figures following the author's name; the first two are the final figures of the year in which the description was published; the remainder, separated by a hyphen, give the page on which the description occurs. In conjunction with the chrono logical list of each author's papers at the end of the book, the citation is thus given in the most condensed form possible.
