L. Landois (Nova Acta kc. xxxiii.) publishes an elaborate anatomy of 
Pulex cams, illustrated with seven plates. He discusses the various sys- 
tematic positions that have been assigned to the Pulicidce, and adopts the 
opinion originally propounded by De Geer, that these insects should form a 
distinct order, for which De Geer’s name Suctoria,” or Latreille’s ^^Sipho- 
naptera ” may be retained. 
Goureau (Insectes nuisibles, pp. 192-197) describes the general natural 
history of the Insects of this group, and characterizes the European species 
which especially attack man and the domestic animals, such as Pulex irritans, 
canis,felis, and columhcc. 
Guyon has continued his memoir on the Chigoe, Rev. et Mag. de ZoOl, 
1867, pp. 7-16, 208-211, 276-290, and 324-327, plates 1 & 2. 
Laboulbene records the occurrence of two examples of Pw/c.r
