A worthless memoir by the notorious inventor of " Gihocellum.^^

 This volume (pp. 1-76 and three plates) contains a general 



account of the false-scorpions and a particular account of the 

 French species. Acknowledgments are made to L. Koch (19) : 

 " Cette excellente revision nous servira de guide, et nous aurons 

 meme peu de chose a y aj outer, ayant communique, il y a quelques 

 annees, toutes nos especes au Dr. L. Koch, pour en donner les 

 descriptions " ; but the work contains much that is new, and 

 none has become more widely known or has been more often 

 quoted. England appears, in the extra-French distribution, 

 under several species ; e.g. Chelifer Degeerii C. L. Koch. = Cheli- 

 fer Latreillii Leach.

At this period our animals were being studied in several coun- 

 tries. Simon's account of the French species (22) has been re-
