Bolivar mentioned in his " Conocepbalides de la Nouvelle- 

 Guinee" this species from "Singapore," so that it seemed 

 there was another place of this name also ; I have therefore 

 included this species in my list of New Guinean Conocephalidae 

 (s. 1.), but I cannot find a "Singapore" on any map of 

 New Guinea, whilst Bolivar said nothing" about this "Nouvelle- 

 Guinee" species, coming from Straits Settlements. Hebard, 

 however, got recently material of this species from Singapore, 

 Straits Settlements, and thus I think Bolivar's specimen 

 might also have been collected at the same locality. 



I place therefore in the same species some specimens (2 cf , 

 3 $) from Mt. Dulit collected by Mjoberg. The $ agree 

 perfectly with Hebard' s description, and the cf are also 

 tolerably conformable with the characters given by Bolivar. 

 As may be seen from my description of E. 7nirabilis, I think 

 the large plate above the subgenital plate, described by 

 Redtenbacher and Bolivar as supra-anal plate, should probably 

 be rather a subanal plate. Its shape agrees very well 

 with Bolivar's "lamina supra-anal." Also the cerci show 

 accurately the same shape as described by that author. The 

 subgenital plate, however, is very deeply incised, having 

 a large lobe on each side of this incision, not mentioned by 

 Bolivar. As Eedtenbacher says in the description of the very 

 closely allied Javanese species distincta "margine interno basi

rotundato," I think this lobe may also be present in 

 teutliroides. The tricuspidate apical lobes of this plate, on the 

 other hand, agree very well with Bolivar's description.' Thus
