lant, who places it between the Hymenoptera and Coleo- 
ptera*. 
Der. Metamorphosis subincomplete® ? 
Pseudelytra twisted, attached to the anterior 
leg ®. 
Wings not covered by the elytra, longitudinally 
folded, forming nearly the quadrant of a 
circle’: neuration simple. 
Anus styliferous *. 
3. Dermaprera S (Ulonota F. Orthoptera Oliv.). This 
is another osculant Order, evidently connecting the Co- 
leoptera with the Orthoptera. ‘The elytra are of a cori- 
aceous substance, have a straight suture, and are not 
veined, and the wings are folded longitudinally as well as 
transversely,—circumstances which connect it with the 
former Order,—while the shape of its wings, its oral or- 
gans, and its metamorphosis, show its affinity to the latter. 
It was established at the same time and in the same 
work with the preceding Order, in pursuance of a sug- 
gestion of Dr. Leach, and consists solely of the Linnean 
genus Forficula. 
Der. Metamorphosis semicomplete. 
Elytra coriaceous, without veins, united by a 
straight suture, so as partly tocover the wings. 
Wings longitudinally and transversely folded, 
each forming nearly the quadrant of a circle : 
neuration radiating &.
