* I was on my way to the printers, with the MS. of these notes in my 

 pocket, when accidentally meeting Mr. Westwood, I learned that the Rev. 

 F. W. Hope was about to publish figures and descriptions of several new 

 species of this genus : I have therefore withdrawn the descriptions I had 

 written, lest my new species should clash with Mr. Hope's.
