  The 
  present 
  paper 
  is 
  in 
  continuation 
  of 
  that 
  read 
  last 
  

   year 
  to 
  the 
  Society 
  on 
  the 
  subject 
  of 
  the 
  Cicindelidce 
  of 
  

   Mexico, 
  and 
  has 
  the 
  object 
  of 
  making 
  known 
  the 
  addi- 
  

   tions 
  to 
  the 
  Carahida 
  of 
  the 
  Mexican 
  fauna 
  that 
  have 
  

   been 
  received 
  by 
  Messrs. 
  Godman 
  and 
  Salvin, 
  or 
  have 
  

   otherwise 
  come 
  to 
  our 
  knowledge, 
  since 
  the 
  publication 
  

   of 
  vol. 
  i., 
  part 
  1, 
  of 
  the 
  ' 
  Biologia 
  Centrali- 
  Americana,' 
  

   in 
  1884. 
  In 
  that 
  work 
  the 
  number 
  of 
  species 
  of 
  Cara- 
  

   hida 
  recorded 
  from 
  Mexico 
  was 
  650. 
  The 
  additions 
  in 
  

   the 
  following 
  pages 
  bring 
  the 
  total 
  up 
  to 
  744, 
  there 
  being 
  

   93 
  species, 
  of 
  which 
  70 
  are 
  described 
  as 
  new, 
  and 
  23 
  

   new 
  to 
  Mexico, 
  but 
  previously 
  described 
  chiefly 
  from 
  

   North 
  America. 
  Seven 
  previously 
  known 
  genera, 
  

   Micrixys, 
  Dercylus, 
  Pangiis, 
  Cratacanthus, 
  Agonoderus, 
  

   Pristodactyla, 
  and 
  Pogonus, 
  and 
  one 
  new 
  genus, 
  Xeno- 
  

   dromius, 
  are 
  added 
  to 
  the 
  Mexican 
  list. 
  Some 
  notes 
  are 
  

   added 
  in 
  elucidation 
  of 
  certain 
  species 
  included 
  in 
  the 
  

   original 
  work 
  in 
  the 
  ' 
  Biologia,' 
  rendered 
  necessary 
  by 
  

   the 
  results 
  of 
  the 
  examination 
  of 
  much 
  ampler 
  material 
  

   than 
  was 
  formerly 
  available. 
  Precise 
  localities 
  are 
  now 
  

   known 
  for 
  several 
  species, 
  which 
  previously 
  had 
  been 
  

   recorded 
  only 
  as 
  from 
  ** 
  Mexico."
