NOTES ON PARASITES * 99 



In conclusion we repeat that this paper is an inventory of stock 

 on hand, and not a proposition of a new classification of tlie family, 

 and that our objects in publishing it are: first, to fix the types of 

 the gênera tlius far described ; second, to direct attention to 

 gênera which hâve been overlooked ; third, to suppress certain 

 synonyms and homonyms ; and fourth, to caution against the 

 further création of unfounded gênera in this family.
