19. Indian Dermaptera collected by Dr. A, D. Imms. 
By Matcotm Burr, D.So., F.E.S. 
I am indebted to Dr. A. D. Imms, Forest Zoologist to the 
Government of India, for the opportunity of examining & num- 
ber of earwigs from various parts of India, the list of which is 
well worth publishing. A large proportion of the specimens 
were collected by him while touring, and are in the collections 
of the Forest Research Institute, Dehra Dun. 
Family PYGIDICRANIDAR. 
1. Diplatys falcatus, Burr. 
Shamkhet near Bhowali (Kumaon). 1¢. 
Hitherto recorded from Simla and from the Dawna Hills 
in Lower Burma. 
Also several immature, and therefore not accurately deter- 
minable specimens of the same genus, from Sat Tal, Airadeo, 
and Dehra Dun. 
2. Kalocrama picta, Guer. 
Calcutta. 19. 
3. Cranopygia cumingi, Dohrn. 
N. Coimbatore hills, 5th Aug., 1902. 2. (No. 1076). 
Also a male (No. 1074) in poor condition, which resembles 
this species, but the locality being Tharrawady, in Assam, it is 
probably distinct, as C. cumtngi is a South Indian and Sin- 
halese species.

al wood. ¢ 2, and larvae.
