Blattidae. 



By 

 K. Slielford. 



The small collection of Blattidae which Prof. Dr. W. Kuken- 

 thal has been good enough to entrust to me for examination contains 

 only 1 species which is new to science; the remaining species, 10

 Indian islands with the exception of Nyctibora noctivaga Rehn and 

 Epilampra grisea de Geee.
