A few other minor corrections are: 

 Page 259. According to Kirby Heterusia is preoccupied. The name

 Page 283. Chelura is preoccupied; read Achelura Kirby. 

 " 298. The subgenus Heylcertsia no v. appears to be the same as 

 Platceceticus Pack., Guide Study Ins. p. 291 (1869); Ent. Amer., 

 iii, p. 51 (1887). 

 Page 303. Diabasis is preoccupied; read Stichobasis Kirby. 

 " 351. As the American species of Dryopteris belong to Oreta, the 

 name O. marginata is preoccupied. The species may be called 

 O. tnoorei. 

 Page 351. It appears to me that the genus Campiochilus would seem 

 more appropriately placed among the Thyrididse, where it would 

 come close to Hypolamprus. 

 Page 390. Parasa viridis Hamps. ; the name is preoccupied by an 

 American species. The Indian form maybe called P. hampsonii.

 siinae, Nycteolinae and Notinae.
