(1) Dr Strand (/. c.\ expends considerable space in pointing out what he conceives to be a serious error on my part, 

 in that my figure of peneleos pelasgius does not agree with Grose Smit's figure of pelasgius t3'pe. He has however failed to 

 observe that Grose-Smith's figure is a representation of the female, whereas my figure shows the male. Grose-Smith error 

 in the sex of his specimen is duly pointed out in my monograph.
