16 NEUROPTERA. 
is represented in Europe and Japan, the Tenasserim valley, and Sumatra. The Central- 
American specimens in Messrs. Godman and Salvin’s collection possibly represent 
only one species. 
1. Chirotonetes 
Hab. Mexico, N. Sonora (Morrison; one 2 subimag.), Atoyac in Vera Cruz (Schu- 
man; one ¢ imag.), Teapa in Tabasco (H. ZH. Smith ; one ? subimag.); GUATEMALA, 
San Gerénimo (Champion; one 2 subimag.). 
The forceps basis of the male resembles that of Ch. siccus, Walsh (cf. Eaton, Rev. 
Mon. Ephem. t. 18. fig. 33d), but in that species the penis-lobes are narrower than in 
the one here catalogued. 
The Ecdyurus-type of genera is represented in Messrs. Godman and Salvin’s collec- 
tion by two species—one from Guatemala, the other Mexican. 
Of the first-mentioned species, the genus cannot be ascertained from the single 
specimen extant, which is a 2 subimago deprived of all of its legs and sete, except the 
femur and part of the tibia of one of the fore legs. The specimen is labelled Panima, 
Guatemala (Champion). 
The second species, represented by eight subimag. and one ¢ imag., labelled 
N. Sonora, Mexico (Morrison), agrees with Cinygma, a N.-American genus, in many 
particulars (cf. Eaton, Rev. Mon. Ephem. p. 247). Thus, in the order of their 
shortening, the joints of the ¢ hind tarsus rank 5, 1, 2, 3, 4, and the first joint of the 
male fore tarsus is shorter than the second; the colour of the wings of the subimago 
and the colouring of the femora are also in agreement with the characters of Cinygma. 
But the ¢ fore tarsus (there is only one remaining) shortens its joints in the following 
order,—3, 2, 4, 5, 1, whereas in Cinygma the first joint is much longer than the fifth 
joint; and the lobes of the penis spread rather widely at the tips for a Cinygma. In 
the absence of the  imag., and of a series of the ¢ imag., it is inexpedient to describe 
the species.
