With regard to the Lygseidse as a whole not much can be said. 

 There is a predominance of forms found also in Assam, Burma and 

 Malaya, few of which extend either to the nearest sub-tropical area 

 or to the tropical regions in the north-west. The palsearctic forms 

 which have migrated from Sind into North India have not reached 

 the Western Gangetic Plain. Unfortunately the I^ygaeidse are little 

 collected ; they are small, not easy to identify, uninteresting as 

 " specimens," and very little known. Many more of the obscurer 

 forms of Pusa remain to be found and described probably, and a 

 number are with Mr. Distant or are awaiting description. Such 

 forms, however, being new, offer no data with regard to faunal 

 zones.

In this sub-family, the only notable thing is the complete 

 absence in Tirhut of Lohita grandis which has, apparently, not got 

 beyond the limits of the Gangetic Plain, East. Our three Larginge 

 are all common to Assam and Burma.
