Pseudomorphides. 
G. II. Horn (Trans. Amer. Ent. Soc. i. p. 163), after discussing the posi- 
tion of this group (see p. 226), gives the following Table of the 6 genera 
which he refers to it : — 
I. Head horizontal ; mouth anterior j antennae filiform. 
A. Without antennal grooves ., . * Psbudomorpha. 
B. With antennal grooves. 
1. Mentum entire ; ventral segments 4 . i , * Hydroporomorpha. 
2. Mentum emarginate ; ventral segments 6. 
a. Posterior angles of prothorax distinct . . SphallomorphA. 
b . Posterior angles of prothorax rounded . < Silphomorpha. 
II. Head defiexed, front very convex j mouth inferior ; antennae clavate* 
Adelotopus.

Amphizoides. 
Amphizoa insolens (Lee.). G. H. Horn (Proc. Ent. Soc. Phil. vi. pp. 289- 
290) describes the habits of this species, which he says is as strictly sub- 
a(iuatic as any of the Parnidae. It lives especially in stony creeks, and 
crowded together upon the stones in some numbers. The insects run badly 
on dry land, but move readily under water even in strong currents ; they are 
almost unable to swim. Horn remarks on the resemblance between Am- 
phizoa and the Tenebrionid genus Nyctopetus. 
. G. H. Horn (Trans. Amer. Ent. Soc. i. pp. 164-158) describes the struc- 
ture of Amphizoa insolens (Lee.) in great detail, and illustrates his descrip- 
tion with good outline woodcuts of the insect and its various parts. Horn’s 
opinion as to its systematic position has already been indicated (see p. 226).
