PRE FAC E.

'rUE object of the present Catalogue is to give a complete List· of

all the genera and species of Heteropterous Hemiptera known to

exist in the collections of European and American Entomologists.

The lette1'8 a, b, c, &c., after the species, denote the specimens now

contained in the British Museum, followed by tha kabitaJ and the

mode in which each of them was obtained; and the absence of

thesel8tters indicates the species which are desiderata, and there

fore desirable to be procured for the collection.
