stated to be from Zanzibar. A third speciraeu, from Liudi, ex-Germau 

 East Africa, preserved iu the Berlin Museum, is recorded by Nieden, 

 Mitt. Zool. Mus. Berl. vii, 1913, p. 75, and I have examined a fourth, 

 procured by Mr. A. Loveridge at Morogoro, ex-German East Africa. 

 G. hitzei (female) is from Tauga, and G. jjrns!«« (male) is from 

 Usambara, both also in ex-German East Africa. 



Although I have uot seen the tyjtes of the two species referred to in 

 the synonymy, I entertain no doubt that they are based on mere 

 individual and sexual differences.
