Excerpt from Biologia Centrali-Americana, Vol. 49: Insecta; Rhynchota, Hemiptera-Homoptera; Vol. II; Part 1, by the Rev. W. W. Fowler, D.Sc., M.A., F. L. S.; Part 2, by Prof. T. D. A. Cockerell Part 1 of this Volume contains Canon Fowler's enumeration of four families of Homoptera - the Membracidae, Cercopidae, T ettigoniidfe, and Gyponidze. The material of the Jassidae was entrusted several years ago to a well-known Homopterist, who volunteered to prepare an account of them for this work. Unfortunately, nothing has been finished by him, nor have the specimens been returned to us, in spite of repeated applications to that effect. We are therefore compelled to close Volume II. As it stands, the concluding portion of Canon Fowler's contribution having been received in 1903. Twenty-five species of Membracidae and four of Cercopidae have since been added by other authors to the central-american fauna, the Membracidae mainly by the late G. B. Buckton, either in his 'monograph' (1903) or in a paper published in the Transactions of the Linnean Society [zoology, (2) ix. Pp. 329 - 338, pls. 21 22 and a list of them is appended on pp. 318 - 322, with some notes by Canon Fowler. For the four families, exclusive of those mentioned in the Supplement, 659 species are enumerated, of which 385 are treated as new, with 42 new genera. Of the twenty-one coloured Plates issued in Volume II which were all drawn and printed by Mr. E. Wilson, of Cambridge, ten are devoted to the extra ordinary insects belonging to the family Membracidae. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
