ENTOMOLOGY. 



observations of Mr. Guilding we should not have known distinctly 

 that these two insects are the sexes of the same species : they 

 scarcely accord in any respect, except in the great length of the 

 antennae, and which is indeed too considerable to escape immediate 

 attention. 



It being impossible to include the two sexes of this insect in the 

 same plate, we should observe that the present figure is that of the 

 female insect, the male sex is given in the next succeeding plate (123), 

 and it should be added, that in the original drawings the antennae 

 are advanced forward ; but as those insects, like the rest of their 

 tribe, have the power of reclining the antennae backwards as well as 

 carrying them projecting in front, we have represented the antennae 

 in a reclining position, for the convenience of shewing the antennae 

 in their full extent, which would otherwise have been impracticable.
