Mr. Gahan divides the family into the Pbioninje, which havethe inner lobe of the maxillae obsolete or very small, and theDisteniin.e, Lepxurin.e, and Oeeambycin^e, which have it welldeveloped. Full particulars of these divisions and their sub-divisions will be found in Mr. Gahans work (I. c. pp. 2-4et seqq.). The genus Parandra (which is not represented in the Indian „fauna) ought, apparently, to form at least a separate subfamily, asthe tarsi are distinctly pentamerous, the third joint being smallerthan usual and not concealing the fourth. In certain genera the antennas are curiously tufted at the joints(e. g., Phyodexia, Rosalia, etc.), and the legs are sometimes hairy,or the posterior pair may be furnished with tufts; occasionallythe femora are thickened and form a small plate. The samepeculiarities are found in the Lamiid^e, but not, apparently, to sogreat an extent (e. g. Aristobia). Text Appearing After Image: Fig. 87.—Neocerambyx paris (natural size).

LAMIIML Head in front vertical or bent inwards well below the thorax;last joint of the palpi pointed at the end ; anterior tibial generallywith a groove beneath. This family, so far as the Indian fauna is concerned, contains aconsiderably larger number of species than the Cerambycid^e, andthere are, roughly speaking, about 600 at present known. Theyare more highly specialised than the latter family and contain
