APPENDIX. PELOGONID^. 



P. spasmce, Waterb,, found on the Bat Mer/aderma spasnia, L., 

 from Java, may be perbaps a larval stage of P. talpa ; should this 

 be proved by specimens found later, the much older name given by 

 AVaterhouse has priority. 



Speiser considers that the above-mentioned specimen, found by 

 Dr. Annandale, proves that the Polyctenidse may now be placed in 

 close affinity with the Cimicidoe (vol. ii, p. 410).
