The volume relating to the natural history results of the 
expedition to this island made by Mr. W. R. Ogilvie-Grant 
and Dr. H. O. Forbes having just been published, and the 
Rhynchota determined by Mr. Kirkaldy having been received 
at the British Museum, it is necessary to make a few notes 
to prevent any confusion arising as to the real affinities of 
this interesting fauna, so far as these insects are concerned, 
Some corrections I have already made do not appear in the 
text, and therefore it is best to add in some cases what has 
previously appeared.

A widely distributed African species, found also in Egypt

species.
