segment of the abdomen infuscate ; fourth joint of the anterior tarsi 

 lobate, short, with the posterior ones incised only. Length 5 mm. ; 

 width 2 mm. 



Hah. Cape Colony (Carnarvon). 



Lebia peeegrinator, 

 Plate VI., fig. 7. 



Head nearly smooth, yellowish red ; antennae rufescent, with the 

 three basal joints lighter red ; prothorax yellowish red, subquadrate, 

 with the outer angle slightly rounded, nearly smooth on the disk, 

 but with the outer margins somewhat plicate ; elytra subparallel, 

 striate, with the intervals plane, pale yellow with a post-median 

 subtriangular sutural black patch, the base of which reaches the 

 sixth stria and an often indistinct infuscate patch on the second 

 and third intervals a little below the base ; under side and legs pale 

 yellow ; two last abdominal segments infuscate ; fourth joint of the 

 anterior and posterior tarsi bilobate ; lobes broad and moderately 

 long. Length 7f-8 mm. ; width 3^ mm. 



Hah. Cape Colony, Namaqualand (O'okiep). 



Lebia discigera, Chaud., 

 Coleopt. Novit., 1883, p. 18. 



Alike in shape and colouring to L. ijeregrinator, but without the 

 basal infuscate patch on each side of the elytra, the black discoidal 

 patch runs along the apex of the suture to about one-quarter of the 

 length towards the base, and to about two millimetres of the apical 

 margin, extends transversely as far as the sixth interval and 

 gradually decreases in width up to that point ; fourth joints of the 

 anterior and posterior tarsi broadly bilobate. Length 7f mm. ; width 

 3Jmm. 



Hah. Cape Colony (Caledon, teste Chaud.). 



Lebia vagans, 

 Plate VI., fig 8. 



Size, shape, and colouring of L. discigera, to which it is closely 

 allied, but the dorsal median black patch is differently shaped ; the 

 anterior edge is oblique, ascending along the suture to about one- 

 third of the length, while the other angle is also slightly produced 

 along the fifth interval, the patch becomes more quadrate behind, 

 where it emits on the first and second interval a band reaching to a 

 short distance from the apex ; three of my examples have a small, 

 rounded, basal infuscate patch on the third and fourth intervals. 

 Length 8 mm. ; width 3 J mm.
