46 J. W ood'Ma^son— Sjjecies of Phasmidce. [No. 1, 



Bates,* de Saussuref and Kaup J whom I mention by name on account of the 

 extent and of the extreme value of their contributions. These numerous 

 additions will be enumerated under the genera to which they belong. 



Genus 1. — Bacillus, Late. 



Eleven new species have been referred to this genus since the appear- 

 ance of Professor Westvvood's monograph ; of these one, viz., B. patellifer, 

 Bates, is nearly certainly identical with B. ? Artemis, Westw., and two otliers, 

 viz. B. gramineus and aspericollis, Bates, are most probably, as indeed the 

 author of those species himself suspects, the opposite sexes of one species. 

 The necessary deductions being made, eight remain, which, added together 

 with those described below to the thirty-eight recognized by Westwood, 

 bring up the total of known species of Bacillus to fifty-five. 



Bacillus fuscolineatus, n. sp. PI. V. Fig. 7. 



$ Extremely slender, filiform, cylindrical. Antennae of the length of 

 the metathorax, 17-jointed ; first joint depressed but not expanded, carinate 

 above, with sub-parallel margins, the inner one of which is raised ; second 

 joint nearly twice as long as broad, sub-depressed ; the rest filiform. Head 

 scarcely narrowed from the eyes ; a brown streak passes from the eye along
