This pamphlet (forming part 3 of the Mat5r. Ent. Mosc.) escaped notice 
in Zool. Rec. vii. It is written in Russian, with the exception of a few 
Latin words, and consists of a catalogue of Meteroptera and Homopteray with 
some synonymy and indications of dates and localities. Two new species 
hre described in it} but other original remarks (chiefly concerning the 
■Ilomoptcra) are beyond the Recorder’s power of translation.

This includes the Homopteray and chiefly consists of descriptions of new 
genera and species. Some synonyms and (in notes) useful tables of genera 
are given by the author, who (p. 608 et seq.) also publishes a list of 110 species 
out of the 520 taken by Semper in the Philippines, and which have been 
1‘ecorded from other localities. On the tables, are occasional indications of 
-apparently new" genera.
