I].—Rhynchotal Notes.—VIII. Heteroptera: Fam, Coreide. 
By W. L. Distant. 
THESE notes and descriptions refer to the subfamilies Acan- 
thocephaline, Homeeccerinw, Cloresmine, and Colpurine, 
with a few further references to the family Pentatomide. 
Most of Walker’s descriptions in these groups are reviewed, 
but some two or three still await further consideration. It is 
also probable that some species Walker described in subse- 
quent locations may, when those groups are reached, be found 
to belong to the above subfamilies, 
A CANTHOCEPHALINE. 
Genus ACANTHOCEPHALA. 
Acanthocephala latipes.
