Proposis hewittii Cameron, from Borneo, is an Allodape. 
Genus ALLODAPE Lepeletier 
Allodape hewittii (Cameron) var. sandacanensis var. nov. 
Meade-Waldo considered the Prosopis hewittii Cameron, 
from Kuching, to be Allodape marginata Smith. It differs, 
however, in being much smaller, and having the face mark 
(female) as in A. sauteriella Cockerell, from Formosa. The 
present insect agrees with Cameron’s description, except that 
the face mark and tubercles are ivory color instead of lemon 
yellow, the light band on prothoracic margin consists only of 
white pubescence, and the palpi are not’ black. The thin hair 
on abdomen above is not all blackish. Part of the difference 
may be due to error in Cameron’s description, but we seem 
to have at least a distinct variety (Pater 9979). 
Allodape marginata Smith. 
One female, with more glistening pale hair on the last three 
abdominal segments than in the Luzon form. 
Allodape cupulifera Vachal. 
Six females; a variable lot, but apparently all one species 
(Baker 9978, 9980). 
Genus HERIADES Spinola 
Heriades bakeri sp. nov. 
Female.—Length, 6 millimeters; black, of the usual form; 
clypeus simple; mandibles with two large teeth, and the inner 
corner approximately rectangular; a broad band of dense white 
hair along each inner orbit; antenne black; tubercles densely 
fringed with pure white hair; tegule black; wings conspicuously 
dusky; first three abdominal segments with narrow but con- 
spicuous white hair bands; ventral scopa white. 
BoRNEO, Sandakan (Baker 9971). Very much like H. sauteri 
philippinensis Friese, from the Philippine Islands (Luzon), but 
easily known by the smaller punctures of mesothorax. In typ- 
ical H. sauteri from Formosa these punctures are about 50 
microns wide; in philippinensis, about 35; in bakeri, 24 to 30. 
In the new species bakeri the wings are conspicuously darker 
than in the variety aides: 
Heriades fulvescens sp. nov. 
Male.—Length, about 4.2 millimeters; black, of the usual 
form. I at first took it for granted that this was the male of
