118 NEUROPTERA. 
3. Telebasis filiola. (Tab. V. figg. 33, 34.)

The specimens before me differ from Selys’s description? as follows:—The postcubitals are fewer, 7-9, 
instead of 9-10; labrum yellow, instead of black, in the Teleman and one Torola male, both of which 
are immature; hind margin of the prothorax entire, not “largement mais peu profondément échancrée ” 
black stripe on the femora superior, therefore exterior—perhaps “ intérieur ” is merely a clerical or 
typographical error; the size is smaller—abdomen 16°5-17, hind wing 10°5-11'5 mm. 
Hab. Guatemata, Teleman in Vera Paz [1 ¢ ], Torola, Pacific slope [2 3 | 
(Champion); Panama, Darien (Dr. Festa *)—CotomBia, Barranquilla 4+; Brazit, 
Pernambuco 2, Rio Grande 2, Minas Geraes!. 
4. Telebasis digiticollis, sp.n. (Tab. V. fig. 21.) 
3. Unknown. 
@. Vertex and rear of the head dark metallic green; lips and occiput yellow; frons, genx, and a short 
oblique streak between each posterior ocellus and the antenna of the same side pale green or blue (?). 
Prothorax metallic green, hind margin of hind lobe and each side of the middle lobe inferiorly pale. 
Thorax pale (yellowish ?), a mid-dorsal metallic-green band whose width on each side of the carina is 
about two-thirds the distance from the carina to the humeral suture. Dorsum of abdominal segments 
1-10 dark metallic green or blue, which is narrowed at the apices of 8-10; a narrow, transverse, basal, 
yellow ring on 1-7, sides of 1-7 pale greenish, of 8-10 at apex reddish-yellow which ascends to the 
dorsum. Legs yellow with a superior black stripe on the femora. 
Hind margin of the prothorax convex, entire, but markedly flattened medially ; from each side of the dorsal 
surface of the hind lobe extends forward and slightly upward a straight, slender, yellow process, which 
reaches to about one-third of the length of the middle lobe; the two processes diverge from each other 
at perhaps 60°. 
Tenth abdominal segment half as long as 9, its apical margin deeply cleft along the mid-dorsal line for more 
than half the length of the segment. Appendages as long as segment 10, pale, darker at tip, projecting 
backward about as far as do the palps of the genital valvules. 
Pterostigma pale brown, still paler immediately within its surrounding veins, surmounting one cell or a little 
less, proximal and distal ends of subequal length and obliquity. 
Dimensions.—Abdomen 26, hind wing 17-185 mm. 
Hab. Mexico, Frontera [1 2 ] and Teapa [2 2] in Tabasco (H. H. Smith). 
All three specimens were taken in January. These individuals resemble in some 
respects the description of the female of 7. vulnerata (Hagen), but differ in the 
colouring of the thorax and in the shorter prothoracic processes, which latter have 
suggested the specific name. 
5. Telebasis isthmica, sp.n. (Tab. V. figg. 29, 30.) 
dé. Labium yellow. Labrum, clypeus, frons, rear of the head, and most of the thorax pale green. Vertex 
perhaps reddish at first with black lines in the grooves, the whole becoming obscure later. Prothorax 
reddish with obscure markings, its hind margin convex but flattened medially, A mid-dorsal thoracic 
stripe obscure reddish-brown (?) bordered laterally by a straight black line, the width between the right 
and left black lines being equal to the distance from one humeral suture to the mid-dorsal carina. 
Abdominal segment 1 chiefly pale green, 2-10 bright red (8-10 perhaps ochraceous in life); some of the
