Excerpt from Contributions to Canadian Palaeontology, Vol. 2: Part I. Canadian Fossil Insects, Myriapods and Arachnids One of the first things that impresses the student is the great variety among these insects. In every case, at least among the Homoptera, every specimen must be referred to a distinct species, and in only one case can two species be referred to one genus. In the Fulgoridae each of the three species belongs to a different subfamily; and though such a difference is impossible in the here more numerous but everywhere less varied Cercopidae, the range of genera is very considerable. Given the number of Species allotted to the different families as here, one could hardly devise a more extreme case than here presents itself.
