Mynnekon formicaries, formicateo, and formicalynx, M/LachlAN, 
Tr. E. S. 1871, pp. 441-444, and Pr. p. xlvii, enters into a discussion as to 
the correct application of those Linncean names. lie follows the Swedish 
fiuthors in reserving formicaries for the species known by modern authors as 
formicalynx*, forfnicaleo of the 10th edition of the Syst. Naturre he applies 
to the common species with spotted wings, almost universally known as

PACitAUl), Am, Nat. v. pp. 5G4-6G8, details his observations upon the 
elnbryological development of Chrysopa, in relation to its bearings upon the 
classification of the Neuroptera. He states that the embryogeny of this 
insect is identical with that of the Lihellulidcc, and considers this a proof 
that there is no ordinal discrepancy between the Pseudo- Neuroptera and 
Neuroptera Planipennia. He concludes his paper by general remarks on the 
development of the Articuhta,
