female, very deeply punctato-striate and plainly costate in both 

 sexes, but with the punctures more irregular in the discoidal part 

 in the male ; pygidium somewhat closely punctured in the middle 

 and sub-scrobiculate laterally ; pectus moderately hairy ; anterior 

 tibige bi-dentate outwardly ; inner claw of anterior and intermediate 

 tarsi cleft in both the sexes. In this species the three teeth of the 

 maxilla3 are not bifid, and the shape of the genital armature does 

 not at all resemble that of the other South African species. 



Length 14-15 mm. ; width 6^-7^ mm. 



I have seen three males of this species, easily recognisable by 

 their elongate, sub-parallel shape ; in one of them the claws are 

 partly broken ; in the second the inner claw of the intermediate 

 tarsi is distinctly although not deeply cleft, but in the third example 

 this claw is simple.

Anomala tolerata, n. spec, 

 Plate XLI., fig. 39. 



Pale testaceous, with the clypeus mostly always slightly infuscate, 

 hind tibiae piceous, head very roughly and closely punctured, clypeus 

 sub truncate at apex and moderately broadly rounded laterally, 

 anterior margin reflexed and moderately highly raised ; prothorax 

 nearly straight laterally from the median part to the basal angle, 

 and moderately closely aciculate all over ; scutellum with scattered 

 punctures ; elytra of the normal shape, deeply punctured and 

 costulate in both sexes ; pygidium deeply and not very closely 

 punctured laterally, and less closely in the centre ; pectus villose ; 

 anterior tibiae tri-dentate in the male, bi-dentate in the female ;

Hah. Southern Ehodesia (Salisbury, Enkeldoorn). 



Anomala probativa, n. spec, 

 Plate XLL, fig. 37. 



Pale testaceous, with a narrow border on the elytra along the 

 base and the scutellum, and a slightly broader one along the suture ; 

 the head is also more or less deeply fuscous, and in many examples 

 the humeral callus and the striae are more or less deeply infuscate ; 

 clypeus broadly rounded laterally, sub-truncate in front in the male, 

 arcuate in the female, and with the anterior margin moderately 

 highly reflexed, it is very closely shagreened, the head is equally
