pectus not densely pubescent, and with whitish scales on the sides ; 
anterior tibiz bi-dentate, not sinuate above the basal tooth, tarsi 
long, upper claw of anterior tarsi narrower, but as long as the lower ; 
club of antenne very long in the male, shorter, but still elongated in 
the female ; penultimate abdominal segment slightly wider than the 
preceding one, ultimate one somewhat swollen in the female. 
Length 12-134 mm.; width 6-7 mm. 
The somewhat dense covering of sub-squamose white hairs on the 
upper side is very plain. 
Hab. Mozambique (Lourenco-Marquez, Beira). 
SCHIZONYCHA CONFINIS, n. spec., 
Plate XLIII., fig. 40. 
Siena-brown, clothed above and under with very dense greyish, 
very squamiform hairs, less scale-like on the metasternum ; clypeus 
with the margins highly reflexed, truncate and sinuate in the middle 
in front, distinctly angular laterally at the base, and having only a 
few shallow punctures, no clypeal suture, clypeal carina not much 
arcuate, frontal part very closely punctured, basal carina moderately 
sharp, basal space impunctate; prothorax ampliated laterally in the 
middle, but not much attenuated thence towards the basal angle, 
covered with small, nearly contiguous round punctures, and haying 
no raised transverse supra-basal fold; scutellum more rounded at 
the apex than in the other South African species, and very closely 
punctate all over; elytra sub-cylindrical, the punctures are deep, but 
small; pygidium also closely punctured, the punctures equal and 
separated by an interval not equal to their own diameter; penulti- 
mate abdominal segment broader than the one preceding, ultimate 
one not swollen ; upper tooth of anterior tarsi slender, and not quite 
as long as the lower one; anterior tibie bi-dentate outwardly 
Female unknown. 
This species has a covering of still denser squamulose hairs than 
S. increta, the clypeus is more truncate, and, owing to the highly 
reflexed anterior margin, seems to be hollow; like S. imverta, it has 
no impunctate, raised fold above the basal part of the prothorax. 
Length 14 mm. ; width 7 mm. 
Hab, Southern Rhodesia (Sebakwe). 
ScHIZONYCHA DIVULSA, N. spec., 
Plate XLI., fig. 79. 
Narrow, sub-parallel, pale testaceous, with the head, prothorax, 
and legs slightly testaceous-red ; covered with minute whitish hairs
