the Evaniidai ; from the former it differs by the mode of the inser- 

 tion of the abdomen , from the latter by the multiarticulate antennœ ;

 of the peduncle of the abdomen being inserted at considerable 

 elevation upon the metathorax — a character which seems con- 

 fined to the Evaniidaî — I place it for the present in that family. » 

 The type of the genus Aulacodtis is A. nigriventris Cresson 1. c. 

 (Cuba).
