Genus CORIXA. (Vol. Ill, p. 49.) 



In previously dealing with this genus I was only able to 

 enumerate one species for British India ; I am now, principally 

 owing to the exertions of Dr. Annandale, in a position to add 

 seven more to the fauna, making eight in all. Of course this 

 must be considered anything but final.
