Malange (Mechow), Hiiilla (Welwitsch), Kakonda, Duque de Bra- 

 ganga, Bihe, Chiyaka, Ekuiva River (Wellman). Several forms 

 occur, with and without white sutural stripe, both brownish and green. 

 These beetles appeared to be very scarce until a large artificial bare 

 place was prepared, when mechowi and several other species appeared 

 in great numbers. The brownish form usually appears on clayey soil. 

 When alive they have a strong verbena-like smell. They are strong 

 flyers and very pugnacious. A specimen kept over night in a cage 

 with some other beetles was found next morning chewing the thorax 

 of a Meloid beetle {Eletica rufa F.).

 This last is nothing but a form with more yellow spots on the elytra. 

 Malange (Mechow); Chiyaka, Mt. Elende, November, 1906; Ekuiva 

 River, November, 1907 (Wellman). Our specimens are the flammu- 

 lata form, and were found on dark soil. The beetle does not fly, and 

 is often found in the edge of woods near certain Cosmemce, but not with 

 them. On one occasion a living specimen was taken with an ant 

 {Pheidole punctulata Mayr.) hanging to its leg.
