Four genera, Taurinichthijs, Pharyngodopiliis, Phyllodus, and Eger- 



tonia, have been included by Cocchi in the family Pharyngodopilidae. 



The name Nummojxdatus is to take the place of the genus which has 



given its name to the family, as it has priority. 13 species are described, 



of which 8 are new (see Index of Species). E. T. N.
