Macropsidae 
Macropsis and Oncopsis likewise present no essential fea- 
tures in common with Bythoscopus. Oman (1936) has sug- 
gested that Neopsis Oman is intermediate in character be- 
tween Macropsis and Bythoscopus. Through the kindness 
of Mr. Oman I have been able to examine a specimen of the 
genotype, N. elegans Van D., and am of the opinion that 
without any doubt it should be placed in the Macropsidae, 
any resemblance it may have to Bythoscopus being purely 
superficial. All the Macropsidae have a character in com-

This is, that when the muscle impressions of the sucking- 
pump are visible on the fronto-clypeus, they are invariably 
confined with a pair of crescent-shaped markings. 
IDIOCERIDAE 
In 1936 Oman removed Idiocerus and related genera from 
the Bythoscopinae and referred them to the Eurymelinae. 
Whilst in agreement with the separation, I do not support
