Eaton, A. E. On tlie Hydroptilidoe, a family of the Triclio- 
ptem. Tr. E. Soc. 1873, pp. 125-151, pis. ii. & iii. 
An important work on this obscure family. The maxillary palpi are 
declared to be 5- jointed in both sexes, hence the group is removed to the 
neighbourhood of the Rhyacophilidce. The bibliography is critically 
examined, and the synonymy worked out as far as possible . The true 
genus Hydroptila of Dalman is considered to represent a form practi- 
cally unknown to modern entomologists, and of the six genera described 
all but two are new. Hydroptila is distinguished from all the other 
genera in having 1, 3, 4 spurs. Agraylea is tolerably distinct and well 
known. His other genera are as follows : —
