the genital manubrium on the previous day. The second genital 

 nectocalyx (g.so/i. 2) has become developed within eighteen 

 hours from a simple bud into a nectocalyx already containing 

 the egg-germs ; and near it appears the bud-rudiment of the third 

 genital nectocalyx (g.sch. 3).

XXL — On Rhynchota from Mergui. 



By W. L. Distant. 



The small collection of Rhynchota to which this short paper 

 refers was recently made by Dr. Anderson in Mergui, and 

 was placed in my hands for identification by Mr. Wood- 

 Mason, Of course it is quite insufficient to give any estimate 

 of the affinities which this most interesting fauna will ulti- 

 mately exhibit when adequately worked, but is interesting as 

 affording the first knowledge of the Rhynchota of this little- 

 worked and entomologically little-known zoological district.
