with a flattened oblong disc, which, unitedly, occupy about half 

 of the width of the head in the middle ; the anterior half of the 

 carina has on each side a deep wide excavation, occupying the 

 greater part of the sides, and extending backwards nearly to the 

 eyes. The sides of the head are armed with a small produced 

 point, and the anterior margin has also a small conical projection 

 between the middle and the produced lateral angles. 



The figures represent the head and prothorax of C. vi'icans 

 seen from above (fig. 1 «), and the head seen sideways (fig. 1 h) 

 and from the front (fig. 1 c).

The figure of this species, which I published in the Arcana 

 Entomologica, was made from a drawing of the male, communi- 

 cated by Mr. Melly, whose manuscript name I adopted. Since 

 the publication of that work I have had opportunities of examining 

 specimens of both sexes, which have been received from Natal. 

 The accompanying figures represent the details of the male, and 

 the female with its details. The head of the male (fig. 2a, seen 

 from above, and fig. 2/;, seen sideways) is armed with two small 

 curved acute horns between the eyes, a small truncated horn or 

 tubercle on each side, in front of the eyes, and a strong compressed 

 furcate erect horn in front (fig. 2c, the horn seen from the front). 

 The maxilla of the male (fig. 2 c/) has the inner lobe simple and setose, 

 and the outer lobe acute, horny and outwardly setose; and the fore 

 tibiae (fig. 2e) are long, curved, inwardly armed with about six 

 small teeth, and outwardly serrated. The other tibiae are simple. 



The fevnale (fig. 2 $ ) has the head simple, and the prothorax 

 less developed ; the anterior lateral angles are rounded and 

 deflexed, and the front is rather emarginate in the middle. The 

 maxilla (fig. 2/) has the inner lobe armed with a strong acute 

 spine, and the outer lobe formed as in the male. The mesosternum 

 (fig. 2^) is slightly prominent and obtuse, the fore tibiae strongly 

 tridentate, the middle tibiae bidentate in the middle, and the hind 

 ones unidentate in the middle.
