 insect, occupies pi. 170, erroneously numbered 169 in the letter- 

 press ; and the genus Bryaxis is fully illustrated in pi. 171-

* First part of a monograph on the Tr achy derides, by M. Dupon Jeune, 

 seems well and carefully done. Figures are given of the species, and 42 on 24 

 plates are now published. We shall recur to this memoir on its completion.
