  Described 
  from 
  one 
  female

  " 
  Dore,

   Guinea 
  ;

  Type 
  in 
  the 
  Hope 
  Collection, 
  Oxford. 
  

  

  I 
  think 
  this 
  species 
  belongs 
  here 
  ; 
  the 
  type 
  species 
  is 
  

   from 
  Madagascar. 
  

  

  Rhacoteleia 
  Cameron. 
  

  

  I 
  have 
  examined 
  the 
  types 
  of 
  pilosa 
  Cameron, 
  the 
  type 
  

   species. 
  I 
  think 
  the 
  genus 
  is 
  synonymous 
  with 
  HoploteJcia 
  

   Ashmead 
  ; 
  it 
  differs 
  only 
  in 
  having 
  the 
  third 
  groove 
  on 
  the 
  

   scutum 
  subobsolete, 
  but 
  this 
  character 
  is 
  found 
  in 
  several 
  

   of 
  the 
  Australian 
  species 
  of 
  Hoplotcleia.

  Cameron 
  could 
  not 
  have 
  known 
  Hoploteleia 
  or 
  he 
  would 
  

   have 
  seeTi 
  that 
  his 
  genus 
  was 
  identical 
  "with 
  it; 
  he 
  also
