extremely probable that the species was the one subsequently 

 described as satelles. The short descriptions of the sexes, as 

 given by Burmeister, agree in every detail with many speci- 

 mens of that species, and if satelles is a synonym of dispar, 

 then the species is certainly congeneric with dorsalis. In any 

 case, the genus Dysectoda does not appear to be required. 

 Kraatz placed it in his first group of genera having the "meso- 

 sternal process narrow, greatly elongated and acuminate." 

 Digglesi certainly has the mesosternal process obtusely 

 pointed, but it is neither narrow nor greatly elongated; impar 

 has the process a little shorter and more rounded, but it cer- 

 tainly is congeneric with digglesi, and Kraatz left the former 

 in Diaphonia. 



Micropcecila. The tibiae trident ate in both sexes and 

 longer than the tarsi are the only features in the generic 

 diagnosis that, in conjunction, seem divergent from 

 Diaphonia. The mesosternal process is obtusely pointed in 

 cincta, but then it is scarcely alike on any two species of 

 Diaphonia. It is certainly a very weak genus, but perhaps, 

 on the whole, may be allowed to remain.
