Anmerkung zu Amalopteryx Eaton von G. H. Verrall, 

 Observations on the Insccts collected in Kcrguelen Islands 1879: 



It may be mentioned, that the only known species of the nearest 

 allied British genus Hecarnede has somewhat similar habits, 

 beeing found on fresli marine rejectamenta and but seldom attemp- 

 ting to fly. Amalojderyx ist apparently less strictly coniined 

 to the shore, being commonest among the grass bordering the 

 beach and among the birds uests in the cliffs.
