The above Catalogue contains above one hundred species, more 

 than half of which were new when first published. Then descrip- 

 tions will be found in the Journal of the Asiatic Society, or in the 

 present work, with four or five exceptions only of species yet unpub- 

 lished. The Catalogue has been greatly added to since it was last 

 published, and contains all discoveries up to the present moment. 



I remain, Sir, 



Yours faithfully, 



B. H. Hodgson.
