In the first part of my « Revision of the Notooectidae » (Trans. Ent. 

 Soc Lond. 1807) I gave an analytical table of the Notonectinae (p. 395), 

 which the examination of Martarega proves incorrect. 



As the second part of ray « Re vision » may not be published for some 

 while yet, I take this opportuni ty of giving a revised table. 



1. Eyes not contiguous at the base (2); posterior fé mora not reaching 

 to the apex of the elytra, the latter divided into areas. 2 



— Eyes contiguous at the base; pronotum very transverse; elytra noi 

 [or indistinctly) divided into areas. 4 



2. Pronotum not transverse, a large rounded fovea not present near 

 each antero-lateral angle 3 



— Pronotum very transverse, a large rounded fovea near each antero- 

 lateral angle; ultimate and penultimate segments of antennae subequal ; 

 anterior tarsi 2 -segmentate cfj, posterior tarsi with long claws. 



Enithares Spin. 



3. Comparatively fiat and broad ; ultimate segment of antennae mudi 

 shorter than penultimate; anterior tarsi bisegmeutate cfj ; posterior tarsi 

 without claws. Notonecta Linn. 



— Very convex dorsally, and slender ; ultimate segment of antennae 

 much longer than penultimate; posterior tarsi with claws, anterior tarsi 

 I-segmentate d, 2-segm. .5. Anisops Spin. 



4. Posterior femora reaching beyond apex of elytra; ultimate segment 

 of antennae much longer than penultimate; intermediate tarsi bisegmen- 

 tate cfj. Nychia Staol 1859 = [Aniipalocoris Scottj. 



— Posterior femora not reaching tho apex of elytra; ultimate segment 

 of antennae much shorter than penultimate; intermediate tarsi I-seg- 

 mentate <f, 2-segm. 9. Martarega F. B. White [= Signoreiiella Berg.j. 



(1) Martarega F. B. White 1879 = Signoreiiella Berg 1883. 



(2) In some species of Anisops, the eyes in the <$ are almost contiguous at 

 the base, rarely aetually tonching; in Martarega and Nychia, the iuner mar- 

 gins of the eyes are contiguous for at least one — tliird of their dorsal lengtli 

 from the base.
