74 REPORT OF THE AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE 



(it) Rhynchota to Mr. W. L. Distant. Much of the- 

 new material has been utilized in Volume VI of 

 Rhynchota, lately published in the " Fauna of 

 British India " series. Some of our material 

 has been received back. 



(Hi) Rutelidee to Mr. G. J. Arrow, who will use this 

 material for his " Fauna " volume on this group. 

 Specimens returned, named. 



(iv) Carabidse to Mr. H. E. Andrewes, who is work- 

 ing on the Indian species of this group. Partly 

 returned, named. 

 (v) Trypaneidas to Professor Mario Bezzi of Turin. 

 The specimens were named and we were advis- 

 ed of their return, but they have not been 

 received and were presumably lost in the S.S.. 

 " Persia." Types of eight new species had 

 fortunately been sent direct to the British 

 Museum by Professor Bezzi. 



(vi) Parasites of Trypaneidse to Professor Silvestri, 

 Portici, Italy. Not yet returned. 



(vii) A Dryinid parasite on nymphs of Pyrilla spp. 

 to Mr. J. C. Crawford. Named as Chloro- 

 dryinus fallidus, Crawf. 

 (viii) Cecidomyiadse to Professor E. P. Felt. They 

 have been named and the collection retained for 

 the present. 

 (iw) Sphegidae to Mr. Rowland Turner. Not yet- 

 received back. 



(pc) Apidse to Mr. G. Meade-Waldo, whose recent 

 untimely death has deprived us of a most valu- 

 ed correspondent who was always willing to give 

 us every help in identification of our specimens. 

 This collection remains at the British Museum, 

 and will probably be transferred to Professor 

 Cockerell for examination. 

 (xi) Curculionidae to Mr. G. A. K. Marshall. Partly/ 

 named and returned.
