Eyes in the anterior third of the head, their diameter is a little greater than half their distance from the base of the mandibles. Clypeus moderately produced, with the carina and anterior margin rounded. Mandibles smooth, 4-dentate. The scape falls short of the posterior margin of the head by a length equal to one and a half times its thickness. Second to 7th joints of the flagellum wider than long, the 8th a little shorter and decidedly wider than the 9th, which is a little longer than its apical width. Promesonotum convex, the mesoepinotal suture deep. The two faces of the epinotum form a strong convexity. First node of the petiole one-third longer than high, rounded at the summit, twice as long as its peduncle. Second node globose, as wide as the 1st, a little wider than long. Durban, Natal, (H. B. Marley, leg.) ; received from G. Arnold under the name of atomus, race mictilis, Forel. The latter is much less convex, its 1st node smaller and more conical, the colour paler and the scapes ; Type in coll., Santschi. M. AMBLYOPS, race bulawayense, Forel. Page 236. The name of this race should be altered to Prossae Forel, since the name bulawayensis has already been used for another form in the genus (Forel, loc. cit., p. 418). Page 238, sub-genus Mitara. The author of this sub-genus is Emery, not Forel. Sub-tribe SOLENOPSIDINI. SOLENOPSIS zambesiae, n. sp. ^, 2 mm. (minor ?). Straw-yellow, the head and promesonotum a little darker and more ochreous. Moderately shining. Similar to the ^ minor of S. punctaticeps, Mayr, from which it differs as follows. Head and anterior half or two-thirds of the promesonotum densely punc- tured with large and deep punctures (in puncta- ticeps the promesonotum is finely and very sparsely punctured). Head and promes
