Catalogue of the Berytidae, Piesmidae and Tingidae in the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie

The collection of Berytidae, Piesmidae, and Tingidae in the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie is not of the same degree of completeness as that of most of the other families of bugs. Exotic insects of small size have often been neglected by our collectors, and it seems, moreover, that the Tingidae are not very abundant in the tropical regions. Because of lack of material for comparison I have abandoned the description of the few American and African species that are possibly new to science. Only the descriptions of new species from the Indian Archipelago are given below. BERYTIDAE — BERYTINAE Neides aduncus Fieb. I. Southern France, Duda. — 2.
