The genera Murrotiiuia and J'leiirariu/i are Oriental. The former genus ha.^ pr-Klmcd 

 local race.-* in Celebes and in vnvU of the areas into wljicli the Oriental Hegion proper has Iwren 

 divided above, with the single oxception of the Indian I'eninHula where it is rcplacml by tho 

 latter genus (pp. 1 jo 1 .2 1 ). 



The I.,<»ptaularinae appear to be centred in the Malayan Subregiun ami t<» be undergoing 

 rapid development and exjiansion (p. 1 :3). 



The Aulacotyclinae appear to be a very highly specialized subfamily, n«i\v on the 

 decline. The genera Ceracuftes and Cylindrocaalus appear to be the senile repre.'wntatives 

 of an old group, in .some respects more primitive than the forms at present dominant in tho 

 .subfamily. Thi'y are only found towards and bfvond the limits <if distributinn <.f tlic rest 

 of the .subfamily (p. 1 20). 



The SoleniMVclinae appear to b«- peculiar in ilic Kilimpi.in Kegioii, and tiic I'seuda- 

 canthinae. Prcx-ulinae and I'a.s.salinae t(t Ainerita. The information at present available 

 a.H to their distribution is much le.ss complete than is that available conceniing Indo- 

 Australian fonns (pp. 5 & 124).
