Text Appearing Before Image:
avec les Gyriniens nest elle pas grande ? ceux-cinont-ils pas les memes jambes courtes et comprimees comme laplupart des Pausides; et les tarses des Gyriniens ne sont-ils pastout-a-fait particuliers et differents des tarses des Dyticiens ?Cest pourquoi personne ne peut douter que ces deux families nesoient les membres dun groupe plus grand et naturel que nousnommons des Hydrocanthares et qui est place a cote des Cara-biques, dans le plus grand groupe des carnassiers. II est necessairede donner un nom general pour les deux groupes des Carabiqueset Pausides, qui forment ainsi les Coleopteres carnassiers terrestres,et je propose le nom de Geolestes, derive de yij, terre, et de kqa-rijs,ravisseur, puisquils sont des ravisseurs de la terre, comme lesHydrocanthares les ravisseurs de Teaii. Ainsi les carnassiers sontdetermines et partages de cette maniere ; the Geolestes composedof two groups, 1 Carabidce, and 2 Paussidce, and the Hydrocan-tharis of two groups; 3 Dyticida., and 4 Gyrinidoe.

13 PLATE LI. DESCRIPTION OF A GIGANTIC SPECIES OP CICADA, FROM INDIA. Dr. Germar, in his excellent memoir upon the species of theGenus Cicada, published in the 8th livraison of Silbormanns RevueEntomologique, has arranged them in the following manner:— 1. Fore wings transparent and hyaline. A. Scutellum emarginate, sp. 1—3. B. Scutellum not emarginate. a. Head broad and short, eyes prominent, sp. 4—38. b. Head triangular, eyes simple, sp. 39—47. 2. Fore-wings coloured, coriaceous opako, sp. 48—53. 3. Fore-wings coriaceous at base, with a transverse vein which divides them into two halves, sp. 53—60. It will be serviceable to compare Dr. Burmeisters arrangement,given in the second volume of his Handbuch der Entomologie,with that of Dr. Germar. It is as follows :— 1. Fore-wings at the base parchment-like, apical portion transparent hyaline. a. Prothorax dilated at the sides. (C. stridula, &c.) b. Prothorax not dilated, narrower than the head. (C. phikemata, &c.) 2.
