Addenda. G03 



median band slightly acuminated behind ; elytra elongato-quadrate, 

 costulate, shagreened and briefly pubescent ; they have a nari'ow 

 fuscous black lateral band, and on each side an elongated, acuminate 

 basal longitudinal band of the same colour, beginning at the base 

 between the humeral angle and the scutellum and extending to one- 

 fifth of the length, and along the suture is a black line which begins 

 a little before the median part and coalesces at the apex with a trans- 

 verse narrow patch or band which does not unite quite with the 

 lateral black margin ; under side and legs flavescent ; abdomen 

 black. Length 7 mm ; width 3 mm. 



Hab. Cape Colony (Uitenhage). 



A very distinct species. 



Gen. CEEPIDOGASTEE. 

 Crepidogaster notulatipennis. 



Brick-red, opaque; elytra with a slight post-median infuscation 

 encircling an ovate spot of the background on each side ; abdominal 

 segments deeply fuscous. 



Closely allied to C. rufescens, and having, like this species, the 

 sixth carina much more raised than the others, but it is smaller ; the 

 a^ntennae are proportionally less massive ; the intervals on the 

 elytra not quite so closely shagreened, and in C. rufescens the elytra 

 are deeply infuscate. I have seen two examples only of C. rufescens 

 Oiud one of G. notulatipennis. Length 7 mm. ; width 3 mm. 



Hah. Cape Colony (Touw's Eiver). 



Tkibe LEBIIDES. 



Group CYMINDID^. 



Gen. METAXYMOEPHUS. 



Metaxymorphus atriceps. 



Flavescent ; antennae a little darker than the rest of the back- 

 ground ; head, with the exception of the labrum, black ; prothorax 

 faintly testaceous in the median part ; elytra hardly striate, very 

 finely aciculate and with a broad sutural infuscate band expanding 

 near the median part into a quadrate patch, and stopping at a little 

 distance from the outer and the posterior margins ; under side and 

 l^gs light testaceous ; claws with two small basal teeth on each side. 

 In the systematic arrangement this species should come after if. 

 vicinus. Length 5 mm. ; width 2 mm.
