80. L. Boscise, Engl d- Krause. Add : L. Jutta>, Dinter, Deutsch- 

 Sudw.-Afr. 5G. 



Dinter's description of L. JidtcB is by itself insufficient for identification, but 

 taking it in conjunction with his remark that the species lives exclusively on 

 Boscia Pechuelu, Kuntze, and is common at Okahandya, there can be little doubt 

 that it is identical with L. Boscine, Engl. & Krnuse.
