8. Phaneroptera myrtifolia, Linnaeus, var. ? 



The single individual collected by Mr. Oates at Bamangwato is a 

 male ; it is very narrow, with pale green body and tegmina ; a broad 

 reddish longitudinal band narrowly edged with white occupies the 

 dorsal region of the prothorax and the base of the inner margin of the 

 left tegmen ; legs very long and slender. Length, 1 inch 7 lines. 



As the genus Phaneroptera is very widely dispersed, this African 

 species is probably distinct from the Surinam insect collected by 

 Rolander and described by Linnaeus.
