Malthodes. Kiesenwetter, B. E. Z. xvi. pp. 369-392, pis. iv. & v., commences 
a revision of the European species, figuring in outline the apical abdominal 
segments of the males of 64 of them. Referring to the enormous number 
of known 5 individuals of M. hrevicolUs and the excessive rarity of the J , 
and also to tjie various species of which only the $ is known, the author 
suggests parthenogenesis as an explanation, pointing out that in 31. brachg- 
ptenis, and in a less degree also in M. hrevicolUs, an arrest of development, 
suggestive of the 5 of Psyche, occurs. M. meloiformis, Linder, is considered 
to be described from an aborted form of a $ , similar forms of tliat sex 
often occurring, though never of the c? • hispanicus, Baudi, = validicornis,
