I had followed Champion who had (Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. 

 1898, p. 68) fixed the type of Stephanitis as the Neotropical 

 species S. mitrata, Stal, which caused me to propose the genus 

 Cadamustus for the Indian species. Subsequently Kirkaldy, for 

 similar reasons, proposed a genus Moecenas for a similar purpose, 

 as regards two Pala^arctic species. Since then Hor\ath has shown 

 that Stal had restricted the genus to the Palaearctic species, and 

 that a new genus was required for the Neotropical ones, thus 

 leaving Stephanitis aA'ailable for the Palaearctic and Oriental 

 representatives.
