that the form said to occur on Bembidium may be specifically distinct from those on .Inch mu although, 
as far as can be determined from the figure of the former, it does not differ from tin on homenoid type. 
Among the more striking forms which, from their variations toward this type, I have U <n reluctant 
to separate specifically, those occurring on Anekomeni (Platynui) in New Zealand deserve pecial mention 
The typical forms of this race are very striking, and would be without hesitation sjH'eifically separated from 
the more typical conditions of L. flagcllata: yet its variations are such that I am at pi. >ent unable t«. 
separate it from certain Asiatic and South American material, and it is therefore included provisionally
