not very perfect, but as my object is to sketch an arrange- 

 ment, it would tend to destroy its usefulness were 1 to 

 introduce species unknown to me as they miglit chance 

 to be placed in wrong sections, or might not even belong 

 to the genus. The following species I have ascertained 

 from the examination of specimens must be excluded. 



Had I felt the sV^'^^^'^st wish to extend the list of spe- 

 cies, I believe, the materials iu mv j -^loii w. uld have 

 enabled me witliout dip uhy lo have duiu ., but being 

 anxious on the contrary railur to reduce than extend the 

 list of doubtful sp ,:,, 1 Lave been careful to add none 

 of my own on which a doubt can exist- Most of those 

 I have named as ucw species, will shortly be ii^ured in 

 the Icones.
