Abstract
MR. W. L. DISTANT has for many years made a study of the Rhynchota, and has paid particular atteption to the Cicadidal. The catalogue of this family, together with a synopsis of the subfamilies and genera now published, was, we learn from Prof. E. Ray Lankester's preface, generously placed at the disposal of the Trustees of the British Museum by Mr. Distant. This work should be of great assistance to students of this group of insects.
