Sectio XII. The few species I have brought together 

 into this group have all some resemblance. They have a 

 more or less distinct split in the hinder corner of the first 

 truncal segment, either the margin of the epimer itself 

 has the split or the split is on the upperside above the 

 margin. The antennae and also the legs are long and slen- 

 der. But some species have also affinities to the species 

 of the preceding group, others to the species of the follow- 

 ing group, and when more species of Spherillo are found 

 an other grouping perhaps shall be more natural.
