Patria: Kühnandjaro, at Kibonoto one specimen together with the following two 

 species. Kibonoto, 22 March 1906, in the runs of Termes hellicosus, one specimen. 



It is with some doubt I refer the two specimens to this species ; I think the occur- 

 ance with the Termes being accidental. Few specimens of this species were before taken 

 on the Island Sansibar by Prof. Voeltzkow.

Patria; Kilimandjaro at Kibonoto, 17 July 1905, in rotten wood ("murken slarn") 

 half a score specimens; under leaf-mould in the culture zone, 1300—1800 m., Nov. J905, 

 also half a score specimens. 



This species is found in many localities in East-Africa. The specimen I have 

 Seen in the Museum at Berlin, taken Ijy Mr. Stuhlmann on the Island Korne at 

 the Southend of the lake Victoria Nyanza, and which I have determined as Lyprobius 

 cristatus is belonging to this species. I have also seen one specimen from Udjigi by 

 lake Tanganyika (16 Decbr. 1896, Mr. Hösemann in Museum Berlin), and several speci- 

 mens from different localities in British East-Africa (Nairobi, two specimens, Aug. 1903; 

 Kijabe, one specimen, 28 Aug. 1903; Pori, two specimens, March 1904; Samburou, one 

 specimen, March 1904; Landiani, 2500 m., two specimens; Nairobi, one specimen, Nov. 

 1904; Voi, one specimen, Sept. 1908, all collected by Mr. Alluaud and preserved in Ihe 

 Museum at Paris).
