hand, at Halle. These males agree with de Selys' description of his 

 Enallagina gabonense (Bull. Acad. Roy. Belg. — 2 — xli, p. 538, 

 1876). This latter, as its name indicates, was described from the 

 Gaboon, but I have a pair {% 9 ) <jf this species from the Cape, sent 

 to me by M. Martin. The female has not hitherto been described. 

 Its markings are much like those of the male, but the blue and green 

 of the latter are replaced by luteous (the individual is evidently 

 teneral), the postocular spots are larger, dorsum of 8-10 black, ap- 

 pendages luteous, as long as 10, apical ventral spine of 8 well de- 

 veloped, all the tibire with an anterior (external) black line (this is 

 also true for the male), pterostigma very pale luteous. Abdomen 

 26 mm., hind wing 18.5 mm. 



Baron de Selys describes a " Disparonevra glauca Burm." (Bull. 

 Acad. Roy. Belg.— 2— x, p. 443, 1860) stating its locality thus 

 "Cap de Bonne-Esperance, par Drege. — Port natal. (Collect. Selys, 

 Hagen)." It will be noticed, therefore, that he does not assert 

 having seen Cape individuals, while in the INI. C. Z. there is a female 

 with a pin-label, in Hagen' s hand, " A. glaucuni M. B. Drege Catal. 

 No. 1511," and this is a Disparoneura. Probably Drege confounded 

 two species.

One male (J), one female (j), each with a bit of unmarked blue 

 paper on its pin, under the blue drawer-label " glabrum * Pr. b. sp." 

 in Burmeister's hand at Halle. I compared then} with de Selys' 

 description of Ceriagrion glabrum (Bull. Acad. Roy. Belg. — 2 — xlii, 

 p. 527, 1876) and found them to agree therewith. The length of 

 the male is 36 mm., of the female 42 mm.

I have not been able to identify Burmeister's type of this species. 

 Baron de Selys describes a species of Pseudagrion under this name 

 (Bull. Acad. Roy. Belg. (2), xlii, p. 517, 1876), but does not quote 

 the type. A male with a printed label " Mus. Berol ," and a written 

 label "pruinosum Java Burm." in Hagen's hand, in the M. C. Z.,
