A NEW NAME FOR NEBRZA VANDYKEI
DARLINGTON
It is my painful duty to announce that the name Nebria vandykei, used by me in Psyche 37,
1930, p.
104, for a
species from Paradise Valley, Mt. Rainier, is preoccupied. The preoccupying name is Nebria vandykei Banninger (Koleopterologische Rundschau 14, 1928, p. 5), which has been applied to a species quite different from mine, although from the same locality. I therefore propose the name Nebria paradisi, nom. nov., for the species described as N. vandykei Darlington.
I am indebted to Dr. M. Ban-
ninger and Dr. M. H. Hatch for calling my attention to Dr. Banninger's paper.
