frontal part is sharper than in the male; the prothorax is strongly 
convex in the middle, as broad as long and with the hind angles 
rounded; elytra more rugose than punctured, and not without 
indication of some imperfectly formed shallow grooves; femora and 
tibia short, thickened, covered with impressed punctures, lightly 
hairy, tarsal joints rudimentary and becoming still smaller towards 
the claw joint, claws also very small, but not without the tooth 
underneath.” 
Length 174-20 mm.; width 83-10 mm. 
I have received from Durban two examples taken at the same 
time, one with fuscous, the other with testaceous-red elytra. The 
latter greatly resembles the figure of C. castanea, KI. 
Hab. Natal (Durban), Mozambique (Inhambane, teste Klug). 
The description of the female is taken from Klug. 
CyYCLOMERA RIKATLENSIS, Nl. Spec. 
Very closely allied to C. delagoensis, but a little more slender; the 
colour is the same, and so is the general facies, but it differs in the 
following points: the clypeus is plainly aculeate in the middle of 
the anterior part, the margin is more reflexed, and the median part 
of the surface is impunctate, the sides only have some sub-foveate 
punctures, the frontal part has a longitudinally raised prominence, 
the transverse ledge on the vertex is very distinct, and the surface 
is broadly foveate; the prothorax is very finely shagreened and 
plainly rounded and ampliated in the middle laterally, but it is 
sinuate in the posterior part with the outer angle sharp, the pubes- 
cence is the same as in C. natalensis ; the elytra, however, are very 
coriaceous instead of being shagreened, and are glabrous except 
along the outer margins under the humeral and the rounded pos- 
terior parts where there are a few appressed, short, fulvous hairs 
in addition to the marginal fringe, which is rather long ; legs as in 
C. natalensis, but the two basal joints of the hind tibie are not quite 
so broad, and the upper spur is more broadly dilated and rounded 
at the tip.
