"A key to the species of Machilanus Silvestri and the description of the new species hebraeus, insensilis, lapidicola, schmidi, and swani are presented. The last four species are from the Himalayas, some collected from as high as 19,000 feet; the first is from Israel, a considerable extension westward of the range of the genus, known formerly only from Central Asia. The close relationship of Machilanus to the genus Stachilis Janetschek from the Balkans is shown. Characters of the first males reported for the genus Praetrigoniophthalmus Janetschek and for Silvestrichilis trispina (Wygodzinsky) are briefly described"--P. 3.
