RHYSODIDiE. 



As Mr. Arrow points out, the species appears to differ from 

 all the others in the structure of the head, which has the posterior 

 lobes circular in outline instead of kidney-shaped, as in the other 

 species. There are specimens of this species in the British 

 Museum and in the Oxford Museum.
