P. 611, Fig. 598 does not represent the eggs of Corydalis cornufns, which have been correctly identified and figured by Dr. Riley. P. 655, for Pedipalpi substitute for the name of the order the word A rthrogastra, of which the Pedipalpi are a sub-order. P. 680, Sjirostrephoji copei siiould read Scoterjjes copei.
