The front is rather prominent. The inner orbital tooth is bilobed, 

 its outer lobe with the four median teeth making six unequal frontal 

 teeth, not including the inner lobe of the bilobed orbitals, of which 







Mr. Ordway was very patriotic and took great interest in the exciting events of 

 the time. Probably the unusual excitement of that time and place had much 

 to do with his entering the army a little later. 



When the war broke out he immediately enlisted and remained in the Army 

 of the Potomac through the entire war. He distinguished himself for bravery 

 and efficiency on various occasions and was rapidly promoted. At the close of 

 the war he had attained the rank of Brevet Brigadier General, Aug. 13, 1865. 

 After Richmond was captured he was appointed Provost Marshal of the city. 

 He eventually married there and continued to live there some years, engaged in 

 business, but he never resumed his zoological studies after the war. 



He afterwards resided in Washington, D. C., and was Commander of the 

 National Guard of the District of Columbia, and at one time Commander of 

 the Loyal Legion. He was also president of the American Ordnance Company. 



General Ordway was born in Boston, 1843. He died in New York, Nov. 21, 

 1897. 



* The figure given by A. M. -Edwards, in this work, represents a species from 

 the coast of Chili. It is evidently distinct from the one figured in his subse- 

 quent work from the West Indies. Which of the two is the true sjiiniiiiinina 

 of Latreille seems doubtful, but the name is now commonly applied to the West 

 Indian species, or to both. 



Probably all the early writers, cited above, confounded two or more species 

 under this name. Their descriptions are too brief and indefinite to determine 

 species of this genus. Probably the figure of the Chilian species given by 

 A. M.-Edw. affords the earliest means for the accurate determination of any of 

 those included under this specific name. If so, the name ought to be restricted
