The distribution of this subfamily is overwhelmingly paleogeic, the only Ame- 
rican genus being not precinctive. It is equally Ethiopian and Oriental. Its distri- 
bution in the Australasian is due almost entirely to Megymenum and it is probable 
that its Celebesian representatives are of Oriental stock. Of the three Palaearctic 
forms, one is from China, almost on the borderland of the Oriental, while another is 
actually an Oriental species which has extended to the “debatable lands”; the third 
is a well known Ethiopian form of wide distribution.
