Entomological Club. 5839 



In Diptera the cabinet is remarkably rich, all the descriptions in 

 the first volume of the ' Insecta Britannica/ unless otherwise speci- 

 fied, being derived from this source. The Neuroptera have been 

 recently examined, and the nomenclature rectified by Dr. Hagen. 

 The names of the Apina, Vespina and Sphecina are in accordance 

 with Mr. Smith's nomenclature ; the names of the Lepidoptera are in 

 accordance with those in Mr. Doubleday's cabinet ; the Geodephaga 

 are arranged and named in accordance with Mr. Dawson's work. 

 The arrangement of the remaining Coleoptera must remain in abey- 

 ance until we have some guide to its accomplishment. 



In presenting specimens, donors are most respectfully requested 

 to observe that, however desirable it may be to accompany each spe- 

 cimen with its name, yet so vast a majority of our British insects are 

 as yet unnamed, that this can only be accomplished in a few of the 

 more popular groups. Hemiptera, Orthoptera, Coleoptera and Neu- 

 roptera are acceptable without names. 



The names and addresses of the members of the Club are given 

 below, and any additional information will be cheerfully given on 

 application to the Secretary or Curator.
