PREFACE 



To carry out my intention of giving descriptions of the 

 new species of Insects in my Collection, I have requested 

 Mr. F. Walker to examme my Homoptera, and the following 

 paper is the result of his labours, irrespective of his papers 

 on the Homoptera collected by Mr. Wallace in the Malay 

 Peninsula and East India Islands, which will be foimd in 

 the 'Journal of the Proceedings of the Linnean Society.'
