and Captures in South Africa im 1905. 345 
Chilomenes sp., which is in the National Collection, but 
without a name. 
On Dombecya flowers, besides ants, three specimens of the 
Cetoniid Rhabdotis sobrina, G. and P., were taken. 
Certain Aculeates were taken at flowers of one sort 
or another which it is not now possible to distinguish :— 
Belonogaster guerini, Sauss., 3, var. dubius, Kohl, Elis 
(Dielis) fasciatella, Hiibn., f; also the long-waisted, black, 
red and yellow wasp, Humenes lucasia, Sauss., 2. This last 
is the third specimen known to Col. C. T. Bingham, the 
type being at Paris and the co-type in the British Museum 
from Bab-el-Mandeb (2,500 miles away); lastly a small 
slender, black, white-ringed solitary wasp, Labus ravus, 
Bingh., 2, a new species said by Col. Bingham to come 
very near the Javan species that is the type of the genus. 
It would appear to be the first notice of this genus in 
Africa. 
Other things that were picked up on that memorable 
day were a worn specimen of the pale fawn-coloured 
Mycalesis simonsit, Butl., one of two or three that were 
seen at one partially shady spot; a large “dry” Terias 
brigitta, Cram., 2; a Tryzxalis sp.; a fly, Anthrax sp.; and 
a beetle, Zophosis angusticollis, Deyr., found running rapidly 
over the ground at the “ World’s View,” close to the grave 
of C. J. Rhodes. 
The account of the expedition would not be complete 
without mention of the swarms of the Red Locust, 
Schistocerca peregrina, Oliv., which during the drive back 
to the train rose in glittermg clouds on every side. It 
was, however, not without repeated efforts that a few 
specimens were netted out of the many thousands seen. 
In the town of BuLUWAYO, Zophosis caffer, Deyr., was 
taken running over the ground, while by turning over 
stones many things were obtained, including the curious 
hairy beetle, a Heteromeron, Usagaria australis, Pér., four 
specimens ; Psaryphis sp., which is not represented in the 
British Museum; the Geodephagid, Omostropus consangut- 
neus, Pér., three; the “Staph,” Myrmedonia procax, Per. ; 
a weevil; and the small dingy bug, Pododus depressus, 
Walk. 
About the filter-beds near the Railway Station the 
Lycenids Zizera lysimon, Hiibn., one, and Aloeides taiko- 
sama, Wallgr., two males, were taken. 
The two beetles, Meligethes sp. and Pseudocolaspis sp.
