Two specimens; Sheikh Husein, Gallaland, October 8, 1894;

These specimens show a decided approach to P. anchietce Boli- 

 var, in the markings and form of the posterior part of the prono- 

 tum, though their closest affinity is with grisea.

One c?; Daga Tula, near Sheikh Husein, Gallaland, September

Owing to the great difficulty of satisfactorily determining speci- 

 mens of this genus without a series of others for comparison, I 

 have not attempted to determine this specimen, which is badly 

 crushed and twisted. It is quite evident that it is not hranneriana.
