the Orthoptera in the British Museum. 133 



The four following species are not represented in the 

 British Museum collection :— 



11. Caloptenopsis vittatus (I. Bol.). 

 1889. C\ahptemis'\ vittatus I. Bolivar, Jorn. Sci. Lisboa, 



(2), i, p. 171, no. 173. 

 1902. C[aloptcnopsis] vittatus M. Fernandez, An. Soc. Esp. 



Hist. Nat., XXX, pp. 282, 283. 

 1910. C[alo2)fenopsis] vittatus Kirby, Syn. Cat. Orth., iii, 



p. 549, no. 2. 



It is not impossible that this species is identical with 

 C. mossamhicus Brancs., as its description recalls very 

 much the colour form described by Karsch as C. angusti- 

 costa, but I abstain from synonymising them, because I 

 have not seen any specimens of G. mossamhicus from 

 West Africa, whence the type of C. vittatus came. 



12. Caloptenopsis angusticeps (I. Bol.). 

 1889. C[al.opte}^us^^ angusticejis I. Bolivar, Jorn. Sci. 



Lisboa, (2), i, p. 172, no. 176. 

 1902. C[alopte7iopsis] angusticeps M. Fernandez, An. Soc. 



Esp. Hist. Nat., XXX, pp. 282, 283. 

 1910. C[aloptenopsis] angusticeps Kirby, Syn. Cat. Orth., 



iii, p. 549, no. 3. 



Seems to be rather hke C. pallidicornis Stal, but differs 

 from it in the undeveloped lateral keels of metazona 

 of pronotum. Probably a good species. 



13. Caloptenopsis karschi M. Fern. 

 ||1893. \Eurypliymus'] calcaratus Karsch {7iec vStal), Berl. 



Ent. Ztschr., xxxviii, p. 103, no. 70. 

 1902. Euryphymus karschi {nom. nov.) M. Fern., An. Soc. 



Esp. Hist. Nat., xxx, p. 307. 

 1910. C[aloptenopsis] karschi Kirby, Syn. Cat. Orth., iii, 



p. 550, no. 15. 



I do not think that this insect is conspecific with any 

 other species, though it is very insufficiently described. 



14. Caloptenopsis v-plagiatus (Bruner). 

 1910. Caloptenus >-plagiatus Bruner, Voeltzk. Reise 

 Ostafr., ii, p. 642, pi. 27, fig. 16.
