Tlic expression " petiole of the iiist siil)m;ir<;iiiiil cell " 

 is, I realize, incomprehensible to anyone not familiar with 

 the vocalmlary of scientific entomoloo-y. Therefore on 

 tlieaccompanyinsf cuts are indicated this first submarf^iual 

 cell and its jiotiole. The j^etiole is the vein which runs 



from the end of the cell h.ick 

 to the first cross-vein, and 

 the relative length of this 

 ]ietiole and of the cell it- 

 self are of importance in 

 the classification. 



The names nsed in this 

 series of tal)les, an<l in this 

 book, as a whoh^ diller in 

 some slight decree from 

 those which have l)een nsed 

 in the previous writings of 

 the author, and of Mr. Co- 

 (piillett. Cidvx td'w'atfis, for 

 example, a name which was 

 used in Bulletin 25, hns been 

 decided to b(^ ;i synonym of 

 Stegoiiii/id f(fsri(/f((. In this 

 conclusion ^Nlr. (\)(jnill('tt is 

 joined by Mr. Theobald, the 

 Englisli autlior. Ciile-v exclhuis of Jbdletin 25, is stated by 

 Mr. The()l)ald to l)e also a synonym of S. j)fsii<ff</, from a
