Longicornia of South Africa, Sc. 283 
Alphitopola ficivora. 
A, angusta, piceo-fusca, maculis albis pubescentibus irreoularibus ornata ; 
- antennis pedibusque ferrugineis, illis corpore triente longioribus. 
Hab. Natal. 
Narrow, scarcely depressed, pitchy brown, with an interrupted white 
pubescence, forming irregular but very distinct and almost confluent 
patches on the prothorax and elytra; head scarcely narrower than the 
prothorax, the latter nearly quadrate; scutellum transverse; elytra 
parallel, coarsely and irregularly punctured; body beneath with.a 
whitish pile ; antennze and legs ferruginous, with an extremely delicate 
pubescence, the former about a third longer than the body. Length 
4 lines. 
The elytra are more parallel at the sides and have a very much 
coarser punctuation than A. maculosa, the antenne stouter and 
scarcely half as long as in that species, and the spots are more con- 
fluent and irregular. It is said to feed on the fig. 
Alphitopola intricata. 
A. latior, depressa, fusca, maculis ochraceis pubescentibus irregularibus 
conjunctis ornata; antennis pedibusque ferrugineis, illis corpore triente 
longioribus. 
Hab, Natal. 
Much broader than the last, and depressed, dark brown, slightly 
shining, with an interrupted ochraceous pubescence, forming, especially 
on the elytra, distinct patches of very irregular figure, the darker colour 
having a reticulated appearance; head rather narrower than the pro- 
thorax, which is slightly transverse ; elytra rather incurved behind the 
shoulders, the punctures of moderate size and somewhat distant; body 
beneath with a fine greyish pile; antenne and legs ferruginous, with a 
very delicate greyish pubescence, claw-joint black. Length 5 lines.

Upper parts entirely covered with a dense fulvous pile ; body beneath, 
antennee, and legs dark brown, with a thin greyish pubescence ; prothorax 
narrower than the head, above equal in breadth and length; scutellum

the apex in some specimens. Length 5 lines.
