Corymbites semicribrosus Fairmaire. LECTOTYPE (present designation). 
SOMALI: §, Museum Paris, Somali, Revoil, 1885 [printed]; 490; [mss.]; Corymbites 
semicribrosus Frm. [Fairm.]; Fairm. det. [Fleut.] (MNHN, Paris). 
The published locality is Zanzibar. Fairmaire based his description on material 
collected by Revoil during his expeditions to ‘les Somalis et dans l’interieur du 
Zanguebar [see p. 44]. It seems probable that the printed label was attached 
to all the material collected on these expeditions, and that the number 420 refers 
to a more detailed list of localities whose present whereabouts is unknown. 
Corymbites semicribrosus Fairmaire is not conspecific with Agrypnus infuscatus 
Klug (see p. 250) as stated by Schwarz (1906 : 8). 
Agrypnus candezei Fleutiaux. Holotype. TANzANIA: 9, Mandera, Zanguebar; 
Agrypnus candezei Fleut., type [Fleut.]; 2 du preced. semicribrosus, Cand. det. 
[Fleut.] (MNHN, Paris). The specimen has a broader, stouter appearance and 
shorter, less strongly serrate antennae than most other female Lanelater species 
known to me. 
This synonymy is based on the belief that semicribrosus, of which the lectotype 
resembles the males of a series of an undescribed species from Chiromo (Malawi) 
in the BMNH, also resembles the undescribed species in that the females have a 
broader, stouter appearance, and shorter, less strongly serrate antennae. This 
belief is in some measure supported by the fact that a male with the same locality 
label as the holotype of candezei agrees well with the lectotype of semuzcribrosus. 
Fleutiaux did not publish the synonymy recorded on the holotype of candezev. 
Lanelater semistriatus (Schwarz) 
Agvypnus semistriatus Schwarz, 1899 : 74. 
Lanelater semistriatus (Schwarz) Arnett, 1952 : 105. 
The description is based on an unrecorded number of specimens with a size- 
range of 22-23 mm from Deutsch Ost Africa [TANZANIA] collected by Bennigsen. 
Syntype series: ? DEI, Eberswalde. 
Confirmation of Arnett’s generic attribution is based on the description.

Agrvypnus sobrinus Candéze, 1887a : 190. 
Lanelater sobrinus (Candéze) Arnett, 1952 : 105. 
Lectotype (designated by Van Zwaluwenburg, 1959 : 351). SUMATRA: 9, H. v. 
Hasselt, Boenga Maas. Palembang, Sumatra; A. sobrinus Cdz. n.sp. [Cand.] (RNH, 
Leiden).
