THE GENERAL SUBJECT.

The development of the Nematus, and probably of all the Tcnthredinidaif 
accords in the main features with that of 4^he honey-bee ; that of Pulex with 
Chh'onomus and Simulium, and of the Attclahm^ Gaatrophym^ and Mysia with 
Donacia. The TehpJiorus differs from all other Coleoptcra the early stages of 
which are known, in the primitive band floating in the centre of the yelk, in- 
stead of surrounding it. As a whole, the mode of development (except in the 
Telephorus, which resembles the Hemiptera and Lihellulidcd) is nearly iden- 
tical in the Coleoptera with that of the Diptera and Ilymenoptera. The 
Chrysopa does not differ essentially from the Lihellulida:. There is remark- 
able uniformity in the mode of development in the Hcxapoda^ as much as in 
the dccapodous Crmtacca ; but oinbryological characters can scarcely bo 
defined, oven for suborders. If found, they will probably bo in the advanced 
embryo.
