from specimens of soldiers and workers obtained 

 by James Wylie from trees in the Botanic 

 Gardens, Durban. Some of the nymphs and 

 winged images, as well as soldiers and workers 

 which I examined were from the same trees 

 or near-by sources. There is no doubt what- 

 ever that the insect to which I have applied 

 Haviland's name is the species he described. 

 It abounds along the seaboard of Natal from 

 the scrub of the beach to well inland. 



Sjostedt, who compared Haviland's types 

 with those of Caloternies madagascarensis 

 Wnsman (1900), placed C. durbanensis as a 

 synonym of Wasman's species. Desneux follows 

 Sjostedt. Holmgren does not mention C. dur- 

 banensis in his list of African species. How- 

 ever, he places C. madagascarensis in his 

 sub-genus Proneotermes and places only 

 American species in his Calotermes sensu 

 stricto. It will be obvious from the de- 

 scription of the soldiers which I have given 

 elsewhere^ and from the wing-studies here 

 presented that the insect can only be placed as 

 a Calotermes sen. str., and, therefore, it 

 can only be discussed as Calotermes durban- 

 ensis Haviland.
