The correct name for this genus is by no means settled, and though Triops is in general 

 use at tlie present in continental Europe, I believe that only Apiis has been used by the vari- 

 ous authors who have treated of the genus in the Indian region. The arguments for this 

 usage are so well presented by Stebbing (1910) and Gurney (1923,1924), particularly the 

 former, that I feel constrained to follow their usage in this paper.
