writer sets forth his own views in a tentative manner. The families he 
suggests are as follows : — (1) Including Tineidce ; (2) including Gracila- 
riidce , Lithocolletidce and Phyllocnistis ; (3) including Nepticulidce ; (4) 
Hyponomeutidce , Gelechiidce , Glyphipterygidce , Coleophoridce , and part of 
Elachistidce ; (5) Tisclieria ; (G) Cemiosloma. On the remaining groups, 
no definite opinions are expressed.

Tr. E. Soc. 1883, pp. 119-131. 
The writer defines the following 7 families, almost entirely by neura- 
tion : Gelechiidce , Chimabacchidce ) Depressariidce , Cryptolechiulce , (Eco- 
phoridce , Dasyceridce , and Glyphipterygidce. The genera referable to 
these families are indicated, and their evolution and geographical dis- 
tribution discussed.

The (Ecophoridce are very richly represented in Australia ; the author 
possesses 450 species ; and the total number inhabiting Australia alone 
cannot be less than 2000. A table of about 70 genera (mostly new) is 
given; and 17G species belonging to tho first 34 genera are discussed in 
the two papers already published. It is impossible to include the charac- 
ters of these new genera in the Zool. Rec. In the more extensive genera 
the species are tabulated.

Their direct affinity with Australian forms is very slight. Several new 
genera and many new species are described.
