Boheman gives the whole of Caffraria as the habitat of this 
species. This leads me to the belief that more than one species were 
included by this author under this name. My examples are abso- 
lutely similar to his co-type in the Stockholm Museum,

Black; palpi, antennz, and tarsi piceous; this species closely 
resembles S. durbana, but it is a little more robust, and the shape of 
the genital armature differs considerably ; clypeus blunt and plainly 
sinuate in front, clypeal carina very little arcuate and having the 
clypeal suture reaching nearly from side to side, the basal carina 
is not sharp, and the surface of the head, with the exception of the 
basal part, is covered with very closely set foveate punctures 
separated by a narrow interval; prothorax amplated and rounded 
laterally near the median part and closely serrate, covered with 
deeply cicatricose, elongate punctures very closely set and somewhat 
asperous in the anterior part, but separated in the discoidal by a 
space nearly equal to their own diameter, in the central part there is 
a smooth, somewhat plainly visible longitudinal band, and the trans- 
verse supra-basal fold is conspicuous and smooth; scutellum with 
two lateral series of broad punctures; elytra covered with somewhat 
deep punctures separated from each other by a space equal to their 
own diameter, and bearing like those on the head and prothorax a 
minute greyish hair; pygidium deeply but not very closely pune- 
tate ; tarsi moderately long, the hind ones of the female a little shorter 
than those of the male, upper part of the claw very long and more 
robust than the lower which is nearly median; penultimate 
abdominal segment not broader than the preceding one, last seg- 
ment somewhat broad, not swollen. 
Length 133-14 mm.; width 74-8 mm.
