diterraneum (Meinert Nat. Tidskr. (3), VII, pp. 29-30). From the 

 latter, however, it may be at once separated by the smoothness 

 of its anal pleurae and from both by the large size of its anal 

 sternite. 



This species is not referable to the genus Himantarium as 

 restricted by D.*" Latzel, in as much as the sclerites which bear 

 the stigmata are directly in contact with the tergites. Nor, in 

 the absence of lateral sternal depressions, can it be referred to 

 the genus Stigmatogaster of this author. In fact it is one of the 

 many forms which constitute links between these two so-called 

 genera and suggest that the characters upon which Stigmatogaster 

 was based should be only regarded as at most of subgeneric 

 importance.

The specimen from which D.'" Newport drew up his description 

 was in an imperfect condition and without locality. Consequently 

 the identity between anomolans and punctatus has never been 

 suggested. A comparison , however , between the type of ano- 

 molans and specimens of punctatus has shown that the latter 

 is only a synonym of the former.
