For details as to the classification and of individual species the stu¬ 
dent should consult Distant’s volumes on the Fauna of India, first read¬ 
ing the introduction and familiarising himself with the terms used. 
These enumerate the Indian forms as far as the Jassidse ; all literature 
references will be found in these volumes, but we may remark that little 
has been recorded on the habits of Indian Rhynchota and that Atkinson is 
almost the only author in India who has published papers on the group.
