The published locality is Bourillé, an area on the west bank of the river Omo, 
about 40 miles north of the northern end of Lake Rudolph. Bourie is a misprint 
which occurs on a large number of labels. Fleutiaux was mistaken in the sex of 
the specimen from Bourillé. 
Lanelater puber (Candéze) 
Agrypnus puber Candéze, 1857 : 30. 
Lanelater pubey (Candéze) Arnett, 1952 : 105. 
LECTOTYPE (present designation). SENEGAL: 9, Senegal, Dej.; Janson coll. 
1903.130; puber [Cand.]; Agrypnus puber (Dej. Cat.) Cdze, Cand, type (e coll. 
Dejean) [Janson] (BMNH). 
Paralectotypes. 1 9, 2 g, Dej. Senegal: Janson coll. 1903.130; Agrypnus puber 
(Dej. Cat.) Cdze, Cand. (e coll. Dejean) [Janson] (BMNH). 
A. tropicus Hope (1843 : 365), which Candéze tentatively recorded as a synonym, 
is a Propsephus species (see p. II). 
Lanelater pubescens (Candéze) 
Agrypnus pubescens Candéze, 1857 : 31. 
Agrvypnus bocandei Candéze, 1857 : 32. [Reduced to a variety of pubescens Candéze, Candéze, 
DOT ANAS 
Lanelatey pubescens (Candéze) Arnett, 1952 : 105. 
Agrypnus pubescens Candéze. LECTOTYPE (present designation). SENEGAL: 
9, Senegal; Janson coll. 1903.130; A. pubescens Cdz. 1 (p. 31) [Cand.]; Agrypnus 
pubescens Cand. v. [Janson] (BMNH). 
Candéze mentions both sexes in his description, but no male syntypes have 
been located. The lectotype agrees with the description but measures 20 mm in 
length compared with the published measurements of 25mm. As there is a similar 
discrepancy in the case of bocandi it has been assumed that Candéze made a 5 mm 
error when measuring these specimens. 
Agrypnus bocander Candéze. LECTOTYPE (present designation). SENEGAL: 
6, Senegal, Dej.; bocandei [Cand.]; Agrypnus bocandei (Dej. coll.) Cdze, Cand., 
type (e coll. Dejean) [Janson] (BMNH). 
The specimen measures 17-2 mm in length compared with the published length 
of 12mm. This discrepancy is discussed above. Fleutiaux (1935): 195) con- 
sidered that bocandei should be regarded as a good species. Comparison of the 
lectotypes has shown that this belief is not justified. 
Lanelater pumilus (Candéze) 
Agrypnus pumilus Candéze, 1889 : 69 (3). 
Lanelater pumilus (Candéze) Arnett, 1952 : 105. 
Lectotype (designated by Binaghi, 1941): 89). Etuiopia: Assab, IV, 1888, 
legit Ragazzi. (CMSN, Genoa). Not examined.
