The Spectres of Stoll (Phasma) are so strikingly ana- 
logous to another crustaceous tribe, the Leemodipoda, 
particularly the genus Capredla, that Montagu gave one 
species the Trivial name of Phasma». The jumping Am- 
phipodiform Crustacea are represented extremely well by 
Gryllus L., and the Stomapodiform, particularly Squilla 
Mantis, by Mantis. The resemblance in this last in- 
stance is so very striking, that it cannot escape the eye of 
the least intelligent observer. Orthopterous insects may 
perhaps one day be discovered analogous to the two 
other crustaceous orders, the Decapods and Branchio- 
pods ; but at present I know of none of that description. 
Hemiptera. The larvee of this order, which in general 
resemble the perfect insect, except that they have no 
wings, seem most commonly to belong to the Anopluri- 
form type ©: but the Aphides, Chermes, and Thrips may, 
I think, be regarded as more analogous to the genera 
Podura and Sminthurus in the Thysanura*. I have some 
suspicion that the Nepzd@, Naucoris, and the remipedes, 
Notonecta, Sigara, &c. may find their prototypes amongst 
the Crustacea ; but my confined knowledge of the latter 
does not enable me to point to any individual genera or 
tribes that they may be presumed to represent. 
Neuroptera. As the kinds of larvee of the different tribes 
composing this order, as it now stands, are very various, 
it is to be expected that the analogical forms they repre-
