96 [April, 



184. — Lycsenesthes princeps, Butl. Taita., Taveta, N. Kikuyu. This does not 

 seem to be common, biit possibly it has been overlooked. 



185. — Lycsenesthes lasti, Smith andKivhy. Coast hills, Taveta. Not uncommon. 



186.— Lycsenesthes definita, Butl. Taita, Kikuyu. This species is often 

 abundant. 



187. — Lycsenesthes larydas, Cram. Common generally. 



188. — Lycsenesthes liodes, Hew. Coast hills, Taveta. Apparently rare but 

 probably it has been overlooked. 



189. — Lycsenesthes indefinita, Bethune-Baker. I believe this occurs freely at 

 Nairobi in the forests. 



190. — Phylaria cyara, Hew. One specimen in N. Kikuyu. 



191. — Uranothauma heritsia. Hew. Taita, Kikuyvi. The species is common. 



192.— Uranothauma cordatus, Sharpe. Kikuyu. The males occur in some 

 abundance in damp places, especially at Eijabe. I have not taken the 

 female. 



193. — Uranothauma nubifer. Trim. Taita, Kikuyu. Not so abundant as the 

 preceding. 



194. — Uranothauma falkensteini, Duv. Taita, Taveta, Kikuyu. The most 

 abundant of the genus. The females frequent flowers and the males often 

 swarm on damp ground near rivers. The specimens in Kikuyu are larger 

 and more flushed with pui-ple.

198. — Castalius gregorii, Butl. Taveta, Kikuyu. This species does not seem

199. — Castalius margaritaceus, Sharpe. North and South Kikuyu. Common. 

 I once found it in great abundance in Kenia forest. 



200. — Tarucus louisse, Sharpe. Taita, Taveta. This species does not appear to 

 be common, but it is very inconspiciious and liable to be overlooked. 



201. — Tarucus telicanus, Lang. Ubiquitous, I have found the larva feeding on 

 the flowers of Plumbago capensis without any attendant ants, 



202. — Azanus sigillatus, Butl. 



203. — Azanus moriqua, Wallgr. 



204. — Azamis mirza, Plotz.

All these species occur commonly and may sometimes be found in 

 large numbers on damp sand in river beds.

 common.
