Catalogue des Hemipterks Hkteropteres, Cicadines et Pstllides 



D'EriiOPE ET DTI Basin DE la MiCDITEURANICE. 



Under this title, has recently been published the 2nd edition of Dr. Puton's 

 Catalogue of the Ilemijjtera of Europe, &c. The first came out in 1869, but tho 

 new species described since then, and the alterations in synonymy, &c., have been so 

 numerous, that a new edition was much wanted, and will be most acceptable to all 

 who study European Hemlptera. The increase in the number of species given in 

 the present Catalogue over that in 1869 is 260, but this docs not represent all the 

 new species that have been discovered, because a large number of the so-called species 

 of 1869 have now been sunk as synonymous with others. The present is a full 

 synonymic list of all the European species of Ileteroptera, including also those of 

 the Mediterranean basin, and has been extended also to the Jlomoptera. It is printed 

 in two forms ; one a catalogue of reference, in two columns ; the other for labelling, 

 in one column. They are admirably got up, and the only thing to be wished is that 

 the labelling catalogue had been printed on thicker paper. Tliero is, however, one 

 error that must be pointed out, viz., that Oiico(t/hts pilosus, given as a species on 

 p. 42, is only a variety of Macrocoleus solilarius, as noticed by Messrs. Douglas and 

 Scott in this Magazine, vol. x, p. 277. There arc still many species given as doubtful, 

 which we may yet hope to sec cleared up ; for instance, it may well be believed that 

 the niunber of species in the genus Corixa (GS) will have to be considerably reduced. 

 We are sure all Ilemipterists will unite in thanking Dr. Puton for this and his other 

 excellent works on llemiptera. — E. S.
