This 3rd instalment of the author’s work treats of the CoreuleSj AlydidcSj 
Bery tides, and Stenocephalides, — the Scutellerid^s having been published ja 1865 
and the Pentatomides in 1866. From Puton’s remarks in Ann. 8op, Ent. 
Fr. (6) i. p. 303, this part, though dated in October, 18/0, was apparently 
not actually published until August, 1871. One new genus and a few new 
species are characterized in it. The plates are outlines of 4 species, witf^ 
some details. 
Piiton (/. c.) analyzes this work, comparing his own views with those of 
the authors, giving a table containing two more groups than they adopt, 
^l\z. Prionotylii {Prionotylus,Pi^.) and (7or7zw (including Cfiorosoma, Curt.), 
and objecting to the arbitrary alteration of names for the sake of euphony, 
and to the adoption of Amyot’s mononymic generic divisions.

The new species described in Pt. iii. will be found in their places in this 
* Record,’ having been omitted from Zool. Rec. v. & vi. (in which latter only 
the new genera are mentioned). That part completes the Scutata ; pp. 605- 
678 consisting of addenda to Pts. i. & ii. A table of the geographical distri- 
bution of the species mentioned is given at p. 679. 
Part iv. treats of the Supericornia. The author’s accustomed plethora of 
new genera and species will be found in both parts j and some synonymy is 
given, for the most part apparently at second-hand. Some unnamed varieties 
are described, to which specific rank may hereafter be accorded. The prin- 
cipal divisions, genera, and sometimes species are tabulated, with diagnostic 
(haracters.
