I assume that this gentleman is a (great?)-grandson of Élie Magloire Durand, as that gentleman's first name is sometimes Americanized as Elias.

with key to genera

E. A. Bessey: "A very valuable work with full descriptions of all species and illustrations of many of them."
To which I would add that this is a taxon in which lack of color in the illustrations makes less of a difference than in most.
