Many more species have yet to be added to the list of 

 Australian Diurni, several of which wiU doubtless prove 

 new to science, and many species contained in Mr. Masters' 

 Catalogue besides those I have mentioned will have to be 

 erased, as our acquaintance with the Australian fauna 

 progresses, many being unquestionably assigned as Aus- 

 tralian without foundation, and many other of the names 

 being synonyms or representing mere varieties or sexes. 



The want of a Avork embracing not only a list of the 

 described species, but the descriptions also, is severely felt 

 by the Australian entomologist ; the original descriptions, 

 being distributed amongst a vast number of works and in 

 a variety of languages, renders the process of determina- 

 tion a slow and wearisome task in a country where but 

 few of these works are accessible. I trust, however, in 

 course of time to see some such Avork on our insects as 

 that of Mr. Trimen's on the South African Butterfhes, a 

 work that Avould prove an inestimable boon to entomolo- 

 gists here, and be the means of stimulating the prosecution 

 of this delightful science in the Australian colonies.
