It will 1)(> noticed that tlic s[),'('i('s of the ]\u'iti«' Isluiuls arc all very 

 .small. 



If this species inhabited some continental ai'ea. it would not appear 

 worth while to describe the inadecpiate material ot)tained; hut the 

 occurrence of a Vrfonicclhi in Tahiti is so intei-cvstino- thnt it seems 

 desirable to call attention to it. The marine currents appear to set 

 from Tahiti toward the Fijis, New Caledonia, etc., so it does not seem 

 likely, on the surface of thin«js, that the Ycrov'ieclhi reached Tahiti on 

 floating' trees. Tahiti also seems to be out of the Avay of commerce 

 from the islands westward, thouuli this is a matter on which I am not 

 well informed. 



It may })e useful to give a list of the species of TT/v;y//fv/A^ descril)ed 

 from the Asiatic and Pacific islands sim-e the publication of the check- 

 list of sluy'S in 1S{»3.
