266 Additional Notes on 



said to occur south of the twenty-eighth parallel of latitude, has 

 included several which appear to have been only met with north 

 of that line. So far as we can judge, they were all found by 

 Sir Andrew Smith during his exploring expedition in the years 

 1834-6 ; and most of them were originally described by him in 

 the appendix to the " Report of the Expedition for Exploring 

 Central Africa from the Cape of Good Hope, &c. Cape Town : 

 1836" {8vo, pp. 68), a tract which has now become very rare"^. 

 Our readers will therefore probably not object to our placing 

 before them a list of these species, to the names of which we 

 prefix Mr. Layard's numbers ; and though some of them have 

 been received by him from a higher latitude than any mentioned 

 by Sir Andrew, yet in no single case has any of these species 

 been thereby brought within the prescribed limits. It is only 

 necessary to observe that the latitude of Kuruman is about 

 27° 28', that of Latakoo 27° 1', and of Kurrichaine 25° 42'.
