COLEOPTERA. 2 
The series of Coleoptera collected by Mr. Johnston comprises 
examples of fifty-six species. Many of them belong to widely dis¬ 
tributed genera and are not of special interest. 
Of the nine species taken at an elevation of 10,000 to 14,000 feet, 
the following are worthy of note:—Two male examples of Carabus 
Deckeni , Gerstaecker, which was described from a single female ex¬ 
ample found in this mountain. The species, however, proves to be a 
Calosoma, and not a Carabus , and is nearly allied to a species found 
in Abyssinia. 
There is a single specimen of one of the Trichiidae, which I have 
provisionally placed in the genus Calometopus , although the clypeus 
not being emarginate it is possible that a new genus may have to be 
made for its reception. I have named the species Calometopus 
planatus. There are only two species of this genus known, C. 
senegalensis and C. nyassce. 
The third species which I would mention is one of the Heteromera 
of the family Moluridae. I have named it Melanolophus ater; it 
appears to be most nearly allied to M. septemcostatus , described by 
Eairmaire in Revoil’s “ Faune et Flore des Pays (Jomalis,” but which, 
if I have correctly determined it, occurs also in Abyssinia. 
Of the species found at lower elevations the majority, so far as I 
have identified them, are only known from South-east Africa (e.g.
