ABSTRACT
Explanation of the procedure followed in this index was given in the Introduction to part 1. However, the type conventions followed may be briefly repeated here: Valid names for genera and species are given in bold type when in their definitive position but in italics in cross references where either genus-group names have been altered in rank or species have been transferred to other genera; names in ordinary type are synonyms or otherwise invalid. Asterisks before names signify doubtful or threatened ones needing further attention, while asterisks under Range indicate the type localities (however, these have not been checked for some species).
