Disonycha glabratay F., Cacoscelis marginatay F., and other species, are 
redescribed, with synonymy. A second division is formed, under the 
name of Haliicince haplopodes, for all species with no transverse basal 
groove to the thorax, the hinder tibiss not emarginate at the apex, and 
the hindmost claws non-appendiculate. These are divided into sections 
with the anterior acetabula open and shut respectively.
