340 Records of the Indian Museum. [Vol. XXII, 



record from India iy given by Mr. P. Lesne (Mission Pavie, 1904, 

 63), who mentions " Pondicherry (M. Mamdron)." There are 

 examples in the Indian Museum from Baluchistan, Nushki district 

 {E. Vredenburg), and from both the Seistan Commission and the 

 Baluchistan-Afghanistan Boundary Commission. The range of the 

 species is from the Mediterranean basin, through Central Asia, to 

 Japan.

4. Clivina attenuata, Herbst. 



Nat. Ins. Kiif. X, 1806, 264, t. 176. f. 7 ; Putzeys, Mon. des Clivina, 

 Mem. Liege ii, 1S46, 626 (sep. 108) ; id. Rev. Gen. des Clivinides, 

 .Ann. Soc. Ent. Belg. x, 1867, iio. 



Common in the North, but not extending further South than 

 the Central Provinces.

 Phidola rhombinoda.' ' 



5. ? Clivina lobata, Bon. 



Obs. Ent. ii, 1813, 481 ; Dej. Sp. Gen. i, 1825, 414; Putzej-s, Mon. des 

 Clivina, 599 (Sep. 81 I; id., Rev. Gen. des Clivinides, 120. 



The specimens which served as types to Bonelli and Dejean 

 came from the same source, and Putzeys assumed that they 

 belonged to the same species. As far as I am aware no entomolo- 

 gist dealing with this genus has examined Bonelli's type, and for 

 the present this identification is doubtful. The supposed locality 

 is Bengal. In addition to the example from Barkuda Island, there 

 are in the Indian Museum collection 4 ex. from Orissa, Puri dis- 

 trict, Balugaou {N . Annandale). 



8 ex. (F. H. Gravely). 



6. ? Clivina mordax, Putz. 



Postscr. ad Cliv. Mon., Mem. Liige xviii. 1863, 67 ; id... Rev. (Jen. des 

 Clivinides, 133. 



This specimen agrees with others determined by Bates, but I 

 have not seen the type, and Putzeys two exiguous descriptions are 

 not very helpful. If the determination is correct, C. mordax is 

 widely spread in the East.
