from South Africa and Brazil. 97 



57 a. Cette larve rappelle, par sa forme generate, celle de 

 V Aspidosoma candclarium, Reiche, decrite et figure*e par 

 Goureau dans les 'Annalesde la Societe entomologique de 

 France/ 1845, pi. 7. ii. figs. 1-6; mais elle en differe 

 (autant, du moins, qu'il est perrais d'en juger sur un exem- 

 plaire pique* et deja vieux) par le premier arceau thoracique 

 un peu plus allonge et plus attenue* en avant, ainsi que par 

 les 2 e et 3 e plus grands, sensiblement plus longs que les 

 suivants. Les tubercules stigmatiferes des cote's des segments 

 abdominaux ne sont pas saillants comme dans la figure citee 

 ci-dessus, mais cela tient sans doute k l'etat de dessication de 

 cette larve. Quant aux pattes, elles sont conformees de 

 meme, frangees de quelques soies a leur bord interne et 

 terminees par un double crochet. — Long. 9 mill. ; larg. max. 

 2i mill.] 



62. Sp.?— Br&il. 



[Rio, aqueduct. March 12, 1826.] 



63. Sp. ? — Bresil, Minas Gerae's. 



[Oct. 25, 1825. At Discoberto, near Joao Pedro's house. 

 " Lampyris? "] 



Lampyris, L. 



64-66. Sp. ?, 3 <^ . — Afrique australe. L. conspicuce, Gyll., 

 vicinus, sed scutello abdomineque flavis. 



[No. 88 [6Q], U 13 Duplic. L L," was captured at 7.30 P.M. 

 on Oct. 6, 1814, at Nowsakamma River, Mossel Bay. 

 "Abdominis pars alba lucem reddit. v. J." (Catalogus). 

 The reference is evidently to an undiscovered Journal of 

 South-African travel. Leach considered the species new, and 

 Burchell suggested the name uliginaria, B., for it, but in 

 his Banksian Collation doubtfully sets it down as " Lampyris 

 marqinata <;." 



No. 92 [64], "Q. Dupl. L L," was captured at 8 P.M. on 

 Oct. 3, 1814, at Sylvan Station, north of Georgetown. 

 Leach considered it as possibly the same form as that figured 

 by Olivier ("pi. i. f. 5 J?"), and Burchell suggested the 

 name " sylvatica, B." In his Olivier Collation Burchell noted 

 the same resemblance as follows: — "92. Lampyris mauri- 

 tanica quoad figuram (Genus 28, Tab. i. fig. 5 b) sed fig. 5 a 

 est valde diversa." 



The third specimen [65] bears only the date 3. 10. 14 

 (when Burchell was at " Sylvan Station"), with the figure 7 

 and an imperfect letter, which probably indicates p.[m.].]
