C hella of the Gruinea coast. Another equally distinct form is found 

 at Cameroons and Cape Coast Castle '. 



Ceeoplesis calabakica, Chevrplat. 



Specimens agreeing with others I have seen frpm the G3.bp,on and 

 Cameroons. 



Cekoplesis 5-fasciata, Fabr. 



One pxample, differing only ip thp slightly bvoatjer fed fasciae 

 fyom others received from Mozambique and Natal. 



EiJRYSoPS ESAU, Chevrolat. 



T|iis f|np species appears not to be uncommon at Cameroons and 

 Old Calabar. It is also recorded frpm Sierra Leone. 



Phri'neta aueocincta, Giierin. 



A single example, differing scarcely in any respect from others 

 received from Sierra Leone and Senegal. 



Phryneta macularis, Harold. 



Described bj' Harold from examples taken by Pogge in the Upper 

 Congo region, Mr. B.onny's specimens have apparentlj'^ lighter- 

 cploured antpnnse (Harold says " braunlich gelb ") ; they are tawny 

 yellow, wit|a scape dark brown. The elytra are clothed with long 

 erect black hairs (like P. nigropilosa, Auriv.), the non-mentioi^ of 

 T|V^hich in Harold's description would lead nie to doubt the identity 

 of the species, if it were not for the exact agreement in other respects 

 and the probability that thp h^^rs areli^ible to abr^siop. 



Phetneta spinatoe, Fabr. 



The specimens belong to the variety {Pli. ohspura^ Oliv.?) ip which 

 the elytra are qf a unifo^ni dull ashy-brpwn above with the black 

 spots less distinct. The same yariety occurs op the Guinea coast 

 ^nd in Senegal.
