One of the cominouest grasshoppers at Pretoria. It is 

 very probably identical with C. socms, StS,!, in which case 

 the latter name sliould be retained. The specimens vary 

 a little in size, pattern and the colour of the legs, but 

 appear all to belong to the same species. 



One specimen is labelled : " With swarm of red locusts, 

 Pretoria, November 1894."
