It is to be observed that the subfamilies of the Lamndcp. 

 are divisions of higher grade than the subfamilies of the 

 Ceramhycidce and Prionidw; and, according to M. Lacor- 

 daire's system, will be broken up into smaller groups 

 co-ordinate or corresponding in rank with those of tiiie 

 last two families. 



Of the 291 genera and 1046 species, 132 genera and 

 734 species are here described for the first time. 



Of the remaining 159 genera and 312 species which 

 had been previously characterized, 104 genera and 215 

 species were described in the recent publications of 

 Mr. Pascoe and Mr. James Thomson, principally from 

 the collections of Mr. Wallace. 



In round numbers, then, Coleopterists are indebted 

 to Mr. Wallace's labours for the knowledge of more 

 than 200 new genera and about 900 new species of 

 Malayan Longicorns.
