It is probable that the two last genera will be 

 found eventually to connect the Bembidiidae with 

 the Trechidse. The above table seems to include 

 all the known genera composing the family. Inter- 

 mediate forms may be expected to occur, uniting 

 the European and Transatlantic genera ; there is, 

 however, much to be done in the investigation of 

 the exotic species, as little of their habits are 

 known.

 by Mr. Stephens to Philochthus, as the former 

 had previously been applied by Meigen to desig- 

 nate a genus of Diptera (Vid. Meig. Zw. 1, 253). 

 After paying much attention to this family, I have
