There are now, I am told by Professor Jeffrey Bell, specimens from Natal (I believe undescribed) at the British Museum with twenty-three and twenty-four pairs of legs.

[8]

This name was first applied by Blanchard to a species from Cayenne. The description, however, is very imperfect, and it is by no means clear that the Cayenne species is identical with the species here named Edwardsii.

[9]

The existence of this species is very doubtful. The description of it was taken from a single specimen. The evidence that this specimen was actually found in Sumatra is not conclusive.

[10]

Not to be confused with the larva of Elater lineatus, also known as "wire-worm."

The wings, by many morphologists, are not included in the category of "appendages"; they apparently, however, differ but little in their nature from legs, both being outgrowths of the integument; the wings are, however, always post-embryonic in actual appearance, even when their rudiments can be detected in the larva. No insect is hatched from the egg in the wing-bearing form.

In entomological language the piece between each two joints of an appendage is itself called a joint, though segment is doubtless a better term.

We may mention that fossil Insects are chiefly determined from their wing-remains, which are often surprisingly perfect. This is one of the reasons that have induced us to prefer a classification of Insects in which the nature of the wings is considered of great value. It would be impossible to refer fossil Insects to groups that are established on account of the metamorphosis or of the internal structure of their components, for there is not yet any evidence on either of these points in the fossil remains preserved for us by the rocks.

In his recent Insectes fossiles des temps primaires, pp. 373 and 396, M. Brongniart has himself removed this Insect to Protodonates. We shall again mention it when discussing that group.

[205]

Bactridium, though placed in this tribe, has only short antennae, of 20 joints.

[206]

Bostra and Clonistria, belonging to Bacunculides, have the median segment almost as long as the metanotum.

[207]

The American genera Pterinoxylus, Haplopus, and Candaules, as well as the African Palophus, possess winged females.

[208]

The African and Australian genera Orobia and Paraorobia, although they have a short median segment, are placed in the tribe Phasmides of this division.

[209]

This character is evidently erroneous as regards the males of the genus Phyllium.—D. S.

The genera Atropos and Clothilla were named after the two fates Atropos and Clotho. Westwood attempted some years ago to complete the trio by establishing a genus Lachesilla. This proved a failure, the genus being a misconception. As the name Lachesis is in use in various branches of zoology, the desired circle of Psocid fates is likely to remain always incomplete.

The term inquiline is applied in entomology to a great variety of conditions covered by the Latin word "inquilinus" (incolinus), signifying a tenant or dweller in another's property. The term parasite is used in a still wider and vaguer sense, being in fact applied to a large number of cases, in many of which we do not at present understand the exact relations between the two parties concerned. This subject is no doubt destined to become a most interesting department of entomology. See Riley, P. ent. Soc. Washington, ii. 1893, p. 397; and Wasmann, Zusammengesetzten Nester, etc., 1891.
