Uivision CAPSARIA. 

 Capsaria, Bent. Bih. Vet.-Ak. Hand!, iii, 1, p. 6 (1875). 



Eeuter has subsequently amalgamated his previous division 

 Phytocaria with the Capsaria, but I thiuk unnecessarily. The 

 Capsaria may always be distinguished by the more profound 

 cuneal fracture as well as by more apparent though superficial 

 characters. 



This may be taken as the largest and most typical division of 

 the Capsidse, and its representatives are universally distributed.
