Species of Tropical African Solifuge. 267 
S. fusca and hirtuosa, C. Koch (loc. cit. pp. 76 and 78), from 
the Cape, are two small black-legged species about half 
an inch in length. The former probably will fall under 
a® and the latter perhaps under 0°. 
S. lineata, C. Koch (ibid. p. 80), is perhaps related to 
sericea; it is a small yellow species, with the mandibles, 
trunk, and posterior three pairs of legs striped with 
black, the palpi and first legs being a uniform yellow.— 
From the Cape of Good Hope. 
S. lateralis, Koch (loc. cit. p. 82), also from the Cape, will 
fall under a’, but certainly differs from dentatédens in 
being only just over half an inch long and in having all 
the limbs fuscous. 
S. producta, Karsch (Arch. Naturg. 1880, p. 236) (=vineta, 
Simon, Ann. Soe. Ent. France, 1879, p. 110, not vincta 
of Koch), from Lessouto to the north of the Cape, 
appears to be most nearly related to S. hostzlis, White 
but the flagellum does not reach to the base of the 
mandible. 
S. merope, Simon (Ann. Soc. Ent. France, 1879, p. 112), 
from Zanzibar, is based upon a female. 
S. ntassa, Karsch (loc. ctt. p. 237), from N’yassi (? Nyassa), 
has the flagellum short, as in ferox, but strongly toothed 
at the base, and there appears to be no supernumerary 
tooth on the upper fang. 
S. nasuta, Karsch (loc. cit. p. 238), from Zanzibar, has the 
flagellum of medium length, but not reaching the ocular 
tubercle ; its tip is both expanded and bifid. 
S. Schweinfurthi, Karsch (loc. cit. p. 239), from Djur, has 
the flagellum of much the same length and shape as in 
Keyserlingit ; it is not said, however, to be serrate. 
S. scopulata, Karsch (loc, cit. p. 239), is based upon a female 
from Hantam. Differs from all the species known to me 
in having the front tooth of the lower jaw double. 
Notes on Habits. 
Mr. G. A. K. Marshall, who within the last few years has 
discovered in South Africa no fewer than four new species of 
Solpuga—namely, S. Marshalli from Salisbury, S. Darling? 
and sericea from Gadzima, on the Umfuli, and S. caffra from 
Kstcourt, Natal—has from time to time sent to me various
