374 Mr. Westwoop on Embia, a Genus of Insects, &c. 
POSTSCRIPT. 
Since the above was written, I have observed two apparently distinct species 
of this genus imbedded in gum copal, or anime, in the fine collection of 
Mr. Strong of Brook Green. One of these, which from its size may probably 
be the Embia Savignii, seemed, from the imperfect view only which I could 
obtain of it, to possess 14 joints in the antennz; the other was of a larger 
size, with slightly stained wings, and 24 joints in the antennz. From infor- 
mation received from Mr. David Don, it is not improbable that these gum 
insects are inhabitants of the eastern coast of Africa. 
Still more recently I have observed a very small individual in an apterous 
state, of a dark brown colour with a fulvous head, in a collection made by 
Robert Templeton, Esq., R.A. in the Island of Mauritius. It is probably the 
larva of another and distinct species.
