Abstract

The location of types of Bruchus limbatus Horn, B. pruininus Horn, B. sordidus Horn, B. pauperculus LeConte, and B. distinguendus Horn is discussed, and lectotypes designated where needed. The confusion in American literature involving the names Bruchus obtectus Say, B. obsoletus Say, and B. distinguendus Horn is reviewed. Bruchus erythrocerus, inadvertently validated by Riley (1871), is synonymized with Meibomeus musculus (Say).
