Of these 08 belong to ffliysodes, 502 RHYSODIDiE. which is divided into four subgenera: Dhysores (2), Omoglym-mius (57), lihysodes (8), and Shyrodes (1), and 41 to Glinidium,the latter being placed under two subgenera, Glinidium (27)and Rhysodiastes (14). They are widely distributed both in theOld and the New Worlds, but are chiefly represented in thetropical regions of the former; only a very few species have beenas yet recorded from North and South America, and two or threeoccur in Europe. Up to the present time fifteen species have.

Of those standing under Rhysodes no less than ten belongto the subgenus Omoglymmius, Gangl., and one to S7iyrodes, Grouv.;of the other species, one is referred to Glinidium proper, whilethe other two are placed under the subgenus Eliysodiastes, Eairnu HHYSODES. 503 Key to the Genera. 1.
