ENTOMOLOGY 963 
markings consist of a rosette at the forking of the third vein, another at the apex of the discal cell, 
and a third in the region of the apex of the second basal cell, beside some scattered spots adjacent 
to these rosettes; the axillary cell has a nearly circular pale marking basally and an angulated 
marking crossing it near middle; the preapical pale marking is narrow and does not reach the 
posterior border of the wing. Halteres almost entirely pale yellow. 
BELGIAN Conao. — Female holotype and nine female paratypes from Lu- 
butu, January 29, 1915. 
This new species is nearly related to H. divisapex Austen and H. fasciatapex 
Edwards, but differs from both in not having an entire preapical fascia in the 
wing, from the last-named species in having the basal band of the middle tibiae 
much wider than the other one, and from the former in not having the basal half 
of the axillary cell hyaline. In addition, H. divisapex has two pale rings on the 
hind tibiae.

BELGIAN Congo. — Sankisia, November 1911. Panda River, October 18,

This species is known only from Nyasaland, the Katanga District of the 
Belgian Congo, and Northern Rhodesia.

H. vittata is widely distributed in the savannas of the Ethiopian Region, 
being known from Northern Nigeria, French Equatorial Africa, the Anglo- 
Egyptian Sudan, the Katanga District of the Belgian Congo, Uganda, Kenya 
Colony, Somaliland, Tanganyika Territory, Northern and Southern Rhodesia, 
Nyasaland, Portuguese Hast Africa, Transvaal, and Zululand. I have compared 
the specimens from Katanga with a female from Komati Poort, Transvaal, at 
the U. S. National Museum. 
Of the specimens recorded by me as H. vitiata, in 1913 (Rev. Zool. Afric., II, 
3, p. 466), that from Kawawa is H. mactans Austen. My figure of the antenna 
(loc. cit., fig. 13), however, agrees better with that of H. vittata and it is possible 
that the specimens from the Kundelungu (not now before me) were correctly 
identified. 
Enderlein (1925, Mitt. Zool. Mus. Berlin, XI, 2, p. 402) places H. vittata in 
the ‘‘genus” Parhaematopota, but the structure of the first antennal segment is 
as in his “‘genus”’ T'ylopelma.
