Bergroth now brings up the geniis Dandinns and objects that I 

 should bave followed Schouteden in transferring it to tbe Graplio- 

 somatinse. D'' Schouteden is quite compétent to give bis own rea- 

 sons for tbat location. I regret tbat on wing venation at présent I 

 can ofïer no illumination to D"" Pergroth. He writes that « 1 put 

 my ligbt under a busbel » a course, as is well known, be does not 

 personally practice; but still he nmst be patient with a writer wbo 

 for nearly twenty years bas afforded him an opportunely for cons- 

 tant animadversions — good, bad and indiffèrent, though respect to 

 Bergroth demands tbat one should not take bis critical assertions 

 too seriously. Time is required for ail investigations. Bergroth's 

 promised monograpb of tbe Henicocepbalidse is now some twenty 

 years overdue, white bis paper on some Rhyncbota of Australia 

 published in 1894 contains the announcement « In a second paper I 

 shall continue thèse description and give a list of ail species » 

 Tbis is another publication we are slill anxiously awaiting. » By ail 

 means let us know ail about it » D"" Bergroth.
