CATALOGUE OF ISOPTERA. 13 



C. ceylonicus, Holmgren. 



" Termitenleben auf Ceylon," p. 204 (1911). 



Determined, by Dr. Holmgren, from specimens collected 

 by Dr. Escherich in nests of Termes obscuriceps at Peradeniya. 



C. incola, Wasmann. 



" Wien. Ent. Zeit.," XII., Pt. 7, p. 242 (1893). 



In nests of Termes obscuriceps. Peradeniya ; Kurunegala ; 

 Ambalangoda. 



G. longicornis, Wasmann. 



" Zool. Jahrb.," XVII., Pt. I., pp. 126-128 (1902). 



Dr. Holmgren doubts if this is specifically distinct from 

 incola. 



C. speciosus, Haviland. 



" Journ. Linn. Soc. Lond.," XXVI., p. 413 (1898). 

 Doubtfully recorded from Trincomalee. 



Gen. Hamitermes, Silvestri. 

 H. quadriceps, Wasmann. 



" Zool. Jahrb.," XVII. , Pt. I., p. 123 (1902). 

 Under stones. Ambalangoda ; Peradeniya. 



H. ceylonicus, Holmgren. 

 " Termitenstudien," III., p. 91 (1912). 



This is at present a " nomen nudum." The name will 

 probably replace H. quadriceps for the Ceylon species. 



Gen. Anoplotermes , Fr. Muller. 

 A. Cyclops, Wasmann. 



" Zool. Jahrb.," XVII., Pt. I., p. 161 (1902). 



Under stones and logs of wood. Peradeniya ; Maha 

 Illuppallama. 



Anoplotermes is distinguished by the absence of the soldier 

 caste. The workers might readily be mistaken for those of 

 Eutermes, of which Dr. Holmgren considers this genus to be 

 an off -shoot.
