The species differs from R

. pretoriae Miller, 1956 in the following: first antenna! segment more widened; preocular tubercles almost rectangular anterolaterally; postocular flattened lobes with setigerous tubercles also posteromedially on pretoriae

; compound eyes with fewer and larger ommatldia; width of scutellum is about one third of width of pronotum (on pretoriae about the half), etc. Acknowledgements: I am much indebted for their help to Dr. A. VILLIERS (Paris) and Dr. R. KUMAR (Legon). REFERENCES MILLER, N. C. E. (1956): Hemiptera (Heteroptera): Reduviidae - in: South African Animal Life, 3: 434-492. WYGODZINSKY, P. and USINGER, R. L.
