Distribution.—Daday believed that the specimens from Russia and Transcaucasia, referred by Zograff to this species (1907, Zeit. wiss. Zool., Ixxxvi, p. 449), were more likely to be rotundirostris. Thiele's record of siliqua from the Massai Nyika (1900, Zool. Jahrb. Abt. Syst., xiii, p. 571) is referred to by Daday in 1913 (Voy. AUuaud Afr. orient. Phyllop., p. 3) and again in his revision (1923, loc. cit., p. 304). In the latter work, however, he describes {loc. cit., pp. 370, 375) some specimens from the identical locality as Leptestheriella thielei. One has to assume therefore that the material collected by Neumann and recorded by Thiele contained two species, and that siliqua {rubidgei) occurs also in the East African Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original South African Museum.
