ABSTRACT.-This paper treats the known species of African Platygryllus. We have revised Chopard's (1967) scheme as follows: (a) four new species are described; (b) two species are moved to Platygryllus from other genera (Scapsipedus, Melanogryllus); (c) the type species is given a replacementname; (d) four species are moved to other genera (Teleogryllus, );and (e) four nominal species are consideredto be nomina dubia. A species list summarizesthese changes. [Africa, crickets, Gryllidae, morphology, new species, Platygryllus, ,songs, systematics]

According to Chopard (1967) the genus seems, on the basis of male genitalia, to form a Platygryllus ranges throughoutAfrica and east- rather cohesive group, all possessing the long wards to Java and the Philippines. He includes coiled spermatophoretube mold (STM) and a in the genus thirteenspecies, nine of which are strongly flattened epiphallus. P. primiformis, African; one he considers to be widespread although resembling most of the Platygryllus from Africa to India, one is from Java and species rather closely, has genitalia which are Amboine, and one is from the Philippines. We definitely more like those of Teleogryllus and have not studied the males of nefandus Kirby Acanthogryllus.

Genus PLATYGRYLLUS Chopard

Platygryllus Chopard 1961b: 276. Type species: Playgrvl- lus quadristrigatus(Saussure). The name used by Cho- pard (1961b, 1967), Grvllus lineaticeps Walker 1869, is a primaryhomonym of G. lineaticeps St'al, and takes as replacement name the only synonym quadristrigatus. Walker's type remains the type specimen of the species.

OTHER FEATURES. Medium to large crickets. Mouthpartselongate in some species (ignobilis, cockbilli). Color: dorsum dark brown to shiny black; venter variable-from light brown in serengeticus to black in maurus; legs variable from light brown to black. Cheeks blackish, sometimes with a paler area posterior to lower margin of eyes. Pronotum:Usually not heavily bristled, glabrous in burrowing species; disk either variegated or entirely dark brown or 7 black; lateral lobes usually entirely blackish, sometimes with a pale area along anteriormar- gin. Abdomen:dorsum dark brown to blackish, sometimes patternedwith light and darkbrown; venter pale brown to black. Forewing variable in length-from 0.8 to 1.7 times as long as hind femora; mirror always well developed and di- vided by one vein; harp with 3 to 5 veins (usually 3 or 4); apical area well-developed. Hindwings: often extending well beyond abdo- men, sometimes hidden beneath forewings, but present in all species examined. Front and mid- dle legs variable in color from pale brown to black. Hind femora variable in color, from pale brown with dark oblique streaks, or orange, or reddish brown, to black. Hind tibiae with 4-7 inner and 4-8 outer subapicalspurs, and 0.62 to 0.80 times as long as hind femora. Cerci 0.73 to 0.95 times as long as hind femora. Ovipositor FIG.2.
