from all others of the groups to which it is otliei-wise allied ; 

 but ita])])cars to lie between the Ilippopsinai and Ectatosiina?, 

 and rather to approach the former, on account of the very 

 short legs, more quadrate face, and the form of the pro- and 

 mesosterna, which in the latter are very different. From the 

 Spalacopsina3 (except Dorcasta) it is sej^arated, mter alia, by 

 the undivided eyes and normal form of the head.
