Abstract
THIS important work is primarily based on the collections made by Dr. Schulze, who obtained forty-two species in Western South Africa as against forty-seven recorded by Bingham for the Transvaal and Natal. But Dr. Friese has taken the opportunity to include the Ethiopian region south of Senegal and Abyssinia. Abyssinia is only included in respect of Xyiocopa, and Madagascar is excluded, as it has a separate fauna already discussed by Saussure in Grandidier's work.
