Annals of the Transvaal Museum. 
distribution of this species is probably Basutoland, Orange River 
Colony, and neighbouring portions of the high veld (Transvaal). 
ZONURUS WARRENI Boul. 
Recorded from TTbombo, Zululand. 
Zonurus capensis Smith. 
Taken by Smith on the Hottentot Holland Mountain near Cape- 
town. So far as I know, this species has never been taken since. 
Zonurus polyzonus Smith. 
A widely distributed species. 
Fischer records it from Walfish Bay, Angra Pequenna, and 
Orange River. 
The South African Museum has specimens from Steinkopf, Port 
Nolloth, Calvinia, and Clanwilliam, and as far south as Hoetjes 
Bay, Touws River, and Matjesfontein ; there are some specimens from 
Burghersdorp and the Middelburg Division in the eastern portion of 
the Cape Colony; Miss Wilman has taken it at Kimberley; the 
Albany Museum has a specimen from Steytlerville ; and there are a 
number of specimens without locality in the Bloemfontein Museum. 
The most northern record with which I am acquainted is Irene, 
near Pretoria (Taylor). 
The South African Museum has a single record from Natal; we 
have no specimen of this species from the eastern parts of the 
Transvaal. 
The distribution appears to be German S.W. Africa, Cape 
Colony (with the exception of the southern coastal districts), Basuto- 
land, and Orange River Colony, part of Natal and south-west 
Transvaal, and perhaps also — there are no records — British 
Bechuanaland. 
Zonurus pustulatus Pet. 
Recorded from Hereroland, German S.W. Africa. 
Zonurus cataphractus Boie. 
According to Smith this species is common on the west coast of 
Cape Colony. 
Jean Roux records it from Namaqualand, and the South African 
Museum has specimens from the Calvinia and Clanwilliam Districts, 
and from Matjesfontein. 
Zonurus jonesii Boul. 
This is the common species of the Pretoria District. It occurs 
also in the Zoutpansberg District, and the South African Museum 
lias specimens from the Matopo Hills (near Bulawayo) and from 
Palapye (Bechuanaland); it is found at Kimberley (Miss Wilman), 
and the Albany Museum has specimens which I refer to this species 
from Steynsburg and Hitenhage. It seems to have an extensive 
distribution in the central parts of South Africa, but there are no 
records from the coastal regions, the TTitenhage specimen excepted." 
* According to a note in the Zoological record the angola species Z. angolensis is really 
synonymous with jonesii.
