By Major T. Broun, F.E.S. 

 [Bead before the Auckland Institute, 3rd December, 1913.] 



PART IV. 



The researches of Messrs. A. Philpott, of Invercargill ; M. 0. Pasco, of 

 Queenstown; F. R. Field, of Opotiki; W. and L. Burrows, of Methven; 

 and Mr. T. Hall, within the past twelve months, have enabled me to 

 prepare the following record. 



Exclusive of fifteen species of Pselapkidae in my own collection, one 

 from Mr. A. Brookes, of Mount Albert, and two of the Carabidae from 

 Mr. Field, these six new genera and 105 species were almost all found 

 in the South Island, half of them by Mr. T. Hall whilst he resided at 

 Methven. 



In the following list the numbers are in continuation of those in 

 Bulletin No. 1, Part III. published by the New Zealand Institute.
