the groups above indicated. In tlie first place I give an 

 analytical table of the individual groups, as far as the species 

 are really known to me, or can be arranged from the existing 

 descriptions. I am not unaware of its deficiencies, but am 

 yet of opinion that to some extent it will facihtate the re- 

 cognition of the species. 



[This analytical table I tried in vain to reduce to a prac- 

 tical form, and have, thei-efore, omitted it altogether. 



The descriptions of the species (thirty-three in number) 

 would manifestly occupy too much of our space, and I am, 

 therefore, reluctantly obliged to stop here, — possibly I may 

 succeed in persuading the editor of the Zoologist to admit 

 the translations of those descriptions in the pages of his 

 journal. — Ed. E. A.]
