The author’s view of geographical distribution indicates a somewhat dif- 
ferent original arrangement of land and water from that usually accepted. 
He considers that all Coleoptera in the world are referable to one or other of 
three great stirpes, which, in his opinion, sprung from one stirps, and have 
acq[uired distinguishing features by long isolation and changes in condition of 
life. These throe stirpes are : — 1, the Indo-African ; 2, the Brazilian ; and, 
8, the ^ microtypal ’ (so termed on account of its not containing such large or 
conspicuous insects as the others, and of which the English fauna and flora 
are stated to bo standard types). The Indo-African stirps inhabits Africa 
south of the Sahara, India and China south of the Himalayas, the Malayan 
district, the Indian archipelago, and the New Guinea group, and is less mo- 
dified by foreign elements than the next stirps. The Brazilian stirps inhabits
