208 FAUNA SIMALURENSIS. 



the black colour shows, especially on the underside, a 

 much larger extension than in the other females in our 

 collection. 



I think that later on several local races will be accepted 

 in this species, which seems to be widely distributed: 

 Philippine islands, Celebes, Taliaboe (Xoella archipelago), 

 Borneo, Java, Sumatra, Nias and Simalur. 



The following 6 species of Lucanidae are as yet known 

 to inhabit the island Simalur. The specimens are in the 

 Leyden Museum.

2. „ gracilis Kaup. 1 9 (n°. 3981). 



3. „ Castehiaudi Parry. 1 9 (n°. 4341). 



4. Metopodontus occipitalis Hope. 1 9 (n°- 4342). 



5. Cyclommatus simalurensis, n. sp. 1 cf (n°. 2141). See
