each. Thia first part ooiisista of an introductory portion, detailing the 
structure and adopted classification of the group as a whole, with re- 
marlca on the position of the Trichoptcra^ which the author is inclined to 
consider as of ordinal value. Tlie geographical extent of the European 
Fauna is accepted as nearly equivalent to the Palocarctic division of 
Sclater, t.c., as, comprising all Europe, Northern Africa, Northern and 
Central Asia, Madeira, &c. The whole of the family Phryganeidce is 
completed in part i., and the Limnojdiilidce are commenced. 
Stein, J. P. E. F. Beitrag zAir Kenntniss dcr Phrygaueiden des Alt- 
vaters und einiger anderer. S. E. Z. xxxv. pp. 244-253. 
An indication of an insect under the name of ‘ Phryganea lutea,' is 
given by Roux, Bull. Soc. Sci. Lyon, i. p. 20. 
Phryganeidce. 
McLaciilan, in his ‘ Revision & Synopsis,’ has completed the descrip- 
tions of the species included in his geographical limits, to the number of 
16. No new species are noticed, but the essential characters of most of 
the known forms are figured, pp. 13-30, pis. ii.-iv. 
Limnophilidce. 
A preliminary tabular arrangement of the genera of the European 
Fauna is given by McLachlan in his ‘ Revision and Synopsis,’ pp. 32 & 
33 ; the following genera and species are noticed as new : — 
Astrafus, p. 32. Allied to Colpotaulius, but has the 1st joint of the 
anterior tarsi in the $ longer than the 2nd. Type, A. asiaticus, p. 36, 
pi. iv. Turkestan. 
Jlemipterna, ibid. Allied to Stcnophylnx^ but with the 1st joint of the 
anterior tarsi in the $ much shorter than the 2nd. The spur-formula of 
the ^ is erroneously given as 1,3-4, it sliould bo 0*3'4, and the genus is 
not practically distinct from Micropterna (Stein, infra'). 
Anisogamus, 1. c. Allied to Stenophylax, but with the wings differently 
formed in the sexes. Type, 5. difformis, McLach. 
Apatidea, p. 33. Allied to Apatania^ but the spur-formula is 1'2 2. 
Glyphotcelius persicus, p. 45, pi. iv. North Persia. 
Stein, S. E. Z. xxxv., describes the following new genera and 
species : — 
Stcnophylax fiavospinosus^ p. 245, Greece. 
Micropterna. Between Stenophylax and Halesus. Spurs 0-3*3 $ 
(should be 0*3-4) ; 1st joint of anterior tarsi of $ abbreviated. M. 
oropliila, p. 247, Harz and Altvater. 
Chcetopterygopsis. Allied to Chceptopteryx. Spurs, ^ , 0,2-2, $ , 0-2'2, 
or 1-2-2. Should be, $ 1.3.3. C. maclachlani, p. 249, Altvater, &c. 
Psilopteryx, formed to receive Choetopteryx psorosa, Kol., p. 250. 
Anomalopteryx. Spurs, 0,2*2, ?, 1-2*2. Anterior wings of $ 
sub-abrupt, the apex cuspidate; those of ? somewhat rounded. A. 
chauviniana, p. 251, Silesia. 
Sericostomatidce . 
Drachycentrus suhnuhilus. The males found congregating in a mori-
