 The writer hopes to improve upon the present table when he 



is better acquainted with more of the genera, and for this reason he 



would be pleased to receive for examination or exchange any 



species in list C and the type species of list B. 



The writer takes this opportunity to thank Dr. L. Melichar 



for the gift of many species representing most of the European 



genera upon which the classification of the family is chiefly based. 

 In using the table it will be necessary to run the genus down 



in each section, as we are ignorant of the characters employed in 



so many instances. 



The writer regrets that he has not been able to procure 



specimens of any of Mr. Distant's Indian genera as he feels sure 



some are at present wrongly placed in his table, but the nature 



of the spur is not stated in any instance. 



(To be continued).
