black hairs at the apex of the tibise and sides of the tarsi ; under surface 

 of body black with longish black pubescence. 



Type in my collection; cotype Cat. No. 12122, U. S. N. M. 



Eight specimens sent by Dr. Cammack, taken on "fohage." One 

 of the individuals is a monstrosity, having the secondary bifurcation 

 of the inner front claws reduced to a tiny spur. 



This species in its coloration and facies presents a startling resem- 

 blance to an oriental species (ilf. cichorii Linn.), but the striking- 

 differences in the mouth parts readily separate it.

The typical form was first described from Mozambique. The 

 Angolan form with juxta-scutellar and humero-marginal eljrtral spots 

 seems to be a distinctively western race and is probably a true subspecies. 

 In all my specimens the last three joints of the palpi are yellow. 



A specimen of dicincta probably named by Bertolini and designated 

 as a "type" is in Berlin, Konigliches Museum.
