pi. xi. 
These studies consist of two distinct parts. I. is practically a summary, 
accompanied by criticisms of the recent progress of psychology among 
the Hymenoptera . He notices Lubbock’s criticisms of some of his 
(Forel’s) previous observations, in some cases accepting them as valid, 
in others rejecting them. Fabre’s views as to instinct and sense of 
smell in the Hymenoptera are also criticized, and Lubbock’s paper 
(Tr. L. S. 1857) and Krsepelin’s (1883) are specially referred to ; this 
latter Forel accepts with cordiality. The plate refers specially to the 
minute structure of the antennae. II. consists of descriptions of new 
species, &c., chiefly from Central America. In some of these descriptions 
a tetranomial nomenclature is used.
