CAMKUON, VKSPIDAE. |H| 



Eiuncues crassiuoda sp. nov. 



Black, a line on either side of the middle of the clypeus, commencing above at the 

 apex of the sloping basal part, a small spot over the antenna?, rounded above, gradually 

 narrowed below, the mandibles, antennae, except on top, the basal slope of pronotum, 

 except in the middle from near the top, the propleurse except narrowly below and an 

 oblique triangular mark close to the apex, commencing near the lop and uniting with 

 the lower edge, tubercles, teguke and the sides of the abdominal petiole broadly, rufous; 

 a line on the base of the post-scuiellum, one on the top of the 1st abdominal segment 

 and one on the apex of the 2nd and 3rd all round, pale yellow. Legs of a paler rufous 

 colour than that on the thorax, their coxa? black above. Wings hyaline, the apical half 

 of the costal cellule, the radial cellule except at the base, the hyaline part extending 

 from the base of the radius and posteriorly from the stigma to the apex of the basal 

 abscissa of the radius. Abdominal petiole as long as the mesonotum, and about two-thirds 

 of the length of the 2nd segment; it is thick, pyriform, the basal slope triangular, with 

 a transverse rufous band on the top; the 2nd segment bell-shaped, a little longer than 

 it is wide at the apex, the base roundly narrowed. $. 



Length to end of 2nd abdominal segment 8 mm. 



Kilimandjaro: Kibonoto, 1000 1300 m., 8th September. 



Head closely punctured, more sparsely on the clypeus than on the top; the cly- 

 peus clearly longer than wide, its apex slightly roundly incised, the sides forming rounded 

 short teeth. Apex of post-scutellum transverse. Base of the metanotum laterally closely 

 reticulated; the apical depression broad, shallow, not much narrowed above. Pro- and 

 mesopleurae closely and strongly punctured; the metapleurae much more sparsely punctured. 



The whole body is covered with a white pruinose pile; the sides of the metano- 

 tum are broadly rounded; the base of the thorax is quite transverse; the head is a little 

 wider than it. 



This little species differs from the other Massai species in its punctured 1st abdo- 

 minal segment and in its small size; in both these respects it agrees with the Cape E. 

 rufolineata CAM., the 2 species may be separated as follows: 



The lower two-thirds of the clypeus yellow, marked with rufous above ; the propleurse with only a 

 narrow rufous line on the top, sides of 1st abdominal segment not red, the apex with a red line in front 

 of the yellow one. rufolineata CAM. 



The olypeus without yellow, the sides with a narrow red line; (he propleura 1 largely rufous, the 

 sides of 1st abdominal segment broadly red, Hie apex without a yellow line. ovj.v\//Wrt n. sp. 



Labns maculicollis sp. nov. 



Black, a line on the outer half of the pronotum, a curved spot bordering the base 

 of the lateral scutellar depression at the apical half of the teguke, and a narrow, but 

 distinct, line on the apices of the basal 2 abdominal segments, whitish-yellow; legs dark 

 rufous, the fore femora broadly lined with yellow on the lower apical half; the hinder 

 coxa 4 , trochanters, tibiic and tarsi, black; wings hyaline, the costa, nervurcs and stigma
