576 Mr. W. L. Distant on 



favourite trees, a species of Zizyphus] Cheirolasia Burkei and 

 hicranorrhina Derhyana are usually met with on the twigs or 

 silky leaves of a species of Comhretum ; Op/ostomus fuli'gineus 

 1 have found in the dry dung of oxen ; Trogodes rotundicolUs 

 under stones with ants ; Pachnoda jiaviventris and Plesior- 

 rhina plana are sometimes apple-destroyers, as I have seen in 

 Natal ; Diplognatha silicea and Heteroclita Jansoni I have 

 never captured but on the wing, and they are both very switt 

 fliers. 



I have to acknowledge the great assistance freely given me 

 by my friend Mr. Oliver Janson in the identification of some 

 of the obscure species and in advice generally. 



Tlie species were all captured by myself except where other 

 names are given of those from whom 1 received the specimens.
