Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Arcana Entomologica, Vol. 2 of 2: Or Illustrations of New, Rare, and Interesting Insects
Mr. Macleay, in 1838, in his Paper on this genus, (introduced into Dr. Smith's Illustrations of the Zoology of South Africa, in consequence of a new species of the genus having been brought from thence by that naturalist) published figures of four species. I am now enabled by the kindness of several correspondents to describe as many as nine distinct species, which may be divided into the following subgenera.
