STYLOPIDiE. 
Sir S. S. Saunders, Tr. E. Soc. 1872, pp. 1-48, pi. vii., has published an 
exhaustive account of this group, under the title “ Stylopidaruin, ordincm 
Strepsipterorum Kirbii constituentium, mihi tamen potins Coleopterorum 
Familiee, Rhipiphoridis Meloidisque propinquee, Monograpliia'’’ At p. 287 is 
a list of numerous corrections &c., and at p. 288 an explanation of the accom- 
panying plate, on which the various portions of the wing of a Stglops are 
indicated, and the wings of Myrmecolax nietneri,, Xenus rossii, and Jlylech- 
thrus rubi figured, besides portions of the species described as new. 
Basing his classification on the species upon which the various members of 
tlio group are parasitic, the author forms the family into two divisions : — 
1. llYMENOPTicRomA?, Comprising as subfamilies Mio Styliyndes (parasitic on 
bees), Myrmccolacidcs (on ants), Xenides (on social wasps), and Pseudo.rmides 
(on solitar}'- wasps and Fossores) ; 2. Homopterobias, founded on a para- 
site on one of the Fidgoridm, and to be described hereafter by Westwood. 
Useful tables of the infested species &c. are given ; and the following new 
genera and species described in the Pseudoxenides : —
