22 SMITHSONIAN MISCELLANEOUS COLLECTIONS VOL. I4I 



Pycnoscelus niger 



Tonkin. — Apparently not an accidental inhabitant as nymphs were 

 present (Chopard, 1929a; Colani, 1952). 



Pycnoscelus striatus 



Malaya. — Found burrowing in bats' guano at entrance to caves in 

 Selangor, where it was very abundant 50 to 600 feet from entrance ; 

 also on walls of inner cavern (Chopard, 1919, 1929). In the absence 

 of other evidence, the presence of P. striatus in a cave indicates that 

 bats also inhabit the cave (Chopard, 1929a). 



Pycnoscelus surinamensis 



Assam. — Found 300 to 400 feet from entrance of Siju cave in the 

 Garo Hills (Chopard, 1924b). 

 South Celebes. — Hanitsch (1932). 



Spelaeoblatta gestroi 



Burma. — Chopard stated that this species shows marked charac- 

 teristics of adaptation to a life in darkness (Bolivar, 1897; Annan- 

 dale, 1913; Chopard, 1919). 



Symploce breviramis 

 South Celebes. — Hanitsch (1932). 



Symploce cavernicola 



Sarawak, Borneo. — Swarming on walls of caves and in soft bird 

 guano on the cave floor (Moulton, 1912). Hanitsch (1931) noted 

 that this species was first recorded by Shelford from a cave in Sara- 

 wak and that there is a series from a cave in the Oxford University 

 Museum, taken by Banks in 1928. 



Malaya. — On the walls of the inner cavern of a cave at Biserat; 

 the insects covered the walls in places (Chopard, 1919). 



Sumatra. — From Baso cavern, on the west coast (Hebard, 1929). 



Symploce curta 

 South Celebes. — Hanitsch (1932). 



Symploce remyi 



Tonkin. — This seems to be a true cavernicolous species (Chopard, 

 1929a; Colani, 1952).
