Four examples from N.E. Rhodesia in the Oxford Uni- 

 versity Museum, collected by S. A. Neave at the follow- 

 ing points : — Three from Upper Kalungwisi Valley, 

 4200 ft., No. 2140, September 3, 1008 ; one from Chisinga 

 Plateau, Kalungwisi district, 4500 ft., No. 2139, Sep- 

 tember 25, 1908. 



One specimen has a singular abnormality in presenting 

 a deep angulate incision excavated from the front part of 

 the pronotal crest near the frontal apex. This individual 

 seemingly was born with this peculiarity, and is possibly a 

 mutation. 



I take pleasure in dedicating this interesting species to 

 S. A. Neave, who contributed the specimens to the Oxford 

 University Museum.
