Mr. Beaulne states in reference to the above Stapliylinids that mostly all were 

 taken in greenhouses and that there isa possibility of their having been introduced 

 from the Western States with nursery stock. It is also pointed out by Mr. Fall 

 that the descriptions of many of Fauvel's species of StaphyUnidae have never 

 been published. It is therefore thought advisable to strike oflf for the time
