 may be referred to in the text by its common name. References to groups 

 of animals are given in the Subject Index. References to tables are given 

 in italics and to figures in heavy type. The systematic position of each 

 genus is indicated in brackets, following as a rule the relevant classifica- 

 tions given in either Imms, A. D. (1957), A General Text Book of Entomo-
