As stated in REMARKS above, it is possible that when females 

 of this species are found in the Sudan they will be similar to 

 those described and illustrated herein except that the scutum 

 will be considerably more elongate and narrowly pointed posterior- 

 ly. 



Note: Zumpt (1950A) attributes the name R. distinctus to 

 "Bedford, Fmg. S. Afr., no. 11, 1935, p.6," an error repeated 

 by Santos Dias (1953C). The name R. distinctiis was proposed 

 on page 523 of Bedford's (1932B) checklist.
