This is divided into three Superfamilies, the Protodermap-

Paradermaptera, with the single family Apachyidae, and the 
Budermaptera, including the remaining three families, the 
Labiidae, Chelisochidae, and Forficulidae.

acher has restricted the genus Pygidicrana to the South 
Aion forms, in which the apical chitinised portion of the 
penis, the parameres, are slender and narrow, with no tee 
for the oriental species, and consequently for all the Todisn 
species included by me in Pygidicrana, he erects the new genus 
Kalocrania, with K. marmorirura as its type. Therefore, 
for the six hitherto-known Indian species, together with the 
following, the generic name Kalocrania, Zacher, replaces Pygidi- 
crana, Serville.

Father Astruc found a short-winged variety common in 
the Madura District. He writes me that ‘‘ they live under the 
bark of trees, chiefly where some accidental wo ad. 
the bark berst.’’ He found a female with some forty eggs, 
somewhat oblong, ‘attached by the thinner extremity and set 
in some order.’? Father Astruc also found one apparently 
about to attack a female of a large Aftacus atlas, which he 
had pinned to a tree to attract males.
