Molopsida debilis (Sharp, 1886) = Trichopsida debilis (Sharp, 1886); Molopsida<br />

diversa (Broun, 1917) = Trichopsida diversa (Broun, 1917); Molopsida optata<br />

(Broun, 1917) = Trichopsida optata (Broun, 1917); Molopsida oxygona (Broun,<br />

Trichopsida robusta (Broun, 1921); and Molopsida simplex (Broun, 1903) =<br />

Trichopsida simplex (Broun, 1903).<br />

Thirteen new synonymies are established (valid names listed after equal<br />

sign): Sympiestus fallax Broun, 1893 and Sympiestus frontalis Broun, 1917 =<br />

Selenochilus syntheticus (Sharp, 1886); Tropopterus sulcicollis Bates, 1874<br />

The species Carabus nemoralis O. F. Müller, 1764 is deleted from the <strong>New</strong><br />

<strong>Zealand</strong> fauna. The Rhysodini (four genera, six species) are catalogued as a<br />

carabid tribe for the first time in the <strong>New</strong> <strong>Zealand</strong> literature.<br />

An updated checklist <strong>of</strong> the <strong>New</strong> <strong>Zealand</strong> Carabidae fauna, known from<br />

7 subfamilies, 20 tribes, 97 genera, 518 species, and 18 subspecies, is also<br />

provided.<br />

are listed alphabetically (A=Adventive; E=Endemic;<br />

N=Native, but not endemic to <strong>New</strong> <strong>Zealand</strong>).<br />
