In all probability, when we know more of the early stages of the above four genenx they will be 

 found to ditfer considerably ; a comparison of the pupa of C. florella with those of C P/iilea, P. minn^- 

 I'l and A. OrhiK reveals sutficieiit differences to suggest non-affinitj\ 



* The genus Pliabe, used in C'ulcoj>lera, is more recent. 



t This gvnas not hnving been pn-viously adopted, it is allow,il)le to take any of the ajKrii's cited as the type : I 

 therefore take one from the centre of the genus.
