I now add two new African species: Ag. Horvåthi and 
Ag. brevicornis. 
Agonoscelis Horvathi n. sp. 9°. Compared with Ag. 
versicolor F. Antenne much more slender; 2nd and 3rd 
joints of equal length. Head longer and much more po- 
inted. Rostrum reaching to middle of 4th ventral segment. 
Venter distinctly furrowed. Head, pronotum and legs with 
an exceptional long and dense pilosity. Sculpture of 
upper side as in the compared species, but the punctures 
pale or brownish, rarely here and there blackish. Body 
nearly unicolorous pale. Dorsum of abdomen entirely red 
(not black at base and apex as in Ag. versicolor). Head 
and pronotum without black streaks or spots. Legs pale; 
tarsi not fuscous. Black points of under side very small; 
the black double-fascia of connexivum narrow. Length 
11—12 mm. 
2 QQ from Colonia Eritrea. Dedicated to Dr. Horvath. 
Habitually like very pale specimens of Ag. versicolor. 
Agonoscelis brevicornis n. sp. Q. A small species that 
comes in the vicinity of Ag. puberula Stal. Oval; mode- 
rately pilose; pale ochreous; surface richly spotted with 
black punctures. Antenne black, except part of Ist joint, 
rather short; 2nd joint considerably longer than 3rd. 
Rostrum reaching to middle of 3rd or base of 4th ventral 
segment. Pronotum and scutellum roughly and widely 
punctured, with numerous callosities. Corium densely and 
finely punctured, with sparse and minute callosities. 
Dorsum of abdomen black. Underside pale, with the 
usual rows of small black spots. Legs pale; tarsi fuscous 
or blackish; apex of tibia often brownish. Length 
8—9 mm. 
5 QQ from Colonia Eritrea. 
By using Dr. Horvath’s key to the African species 
(somewhat modifed and shortened) the two new species 
may be inserted as follows:
