ADDENDA 



Since I sent this manuscript for publication, a paper by F. 

 Borchmann 2 on the "Othniidae" of the world has come to hand. 

 Borchmann has prepared a very excellent study of the group, 

 and if he has erred it has been on the side of conservatism. 

 In his work a new species, Othnius corporaali, is described 

 with the note that it may belong to a new genus. It appears to 

 be congeneric with Parelacatis bakeri sp. nov., the type of my 

 new genus Parelacatis. Othnius acutedentatus, a new species, 

 is reported from Borneo and Luzon and would have been treated 

 by me as a subspecies of Elacatis delusa Pascoe, so far as I am 

 able to judge from the description. The same is true of his 

 Othnius foveicollis. Borchmann 3 has described another species 

 from northern Palawan under the name Othnius ochripes. It is 

 unknown to me.
