By E. R. Sasscer, Scientific Assistant. 



Since the publication of the "Catalogue of Recently Described 

 Coccidse — III,"^ 6 new genera, 110 new species, and 4 new varieties 

 have been described in various publications by workers on Coccidse. 

 This makes a total of 29 new genera, 9 new subgenera, 540 new 

 species, and 45 new varieties recorded since the appearance of Mrs. 

 Fern aid's Catalogue in 1903. The writer believes this hst to be fairly 

 complete to March, 1912, and earnestly requests the assistance of 

 coworkers in adding any references that may have escaped his notice.
