interrupted), and the greater part of the legs bright yellow ; fiagellum 

 of antenna? black above, ferruginous below; posterior femora black 

 at base ; clypeus and front with silvery, cheeks, thorax below, abdomen 

 at apex, and legs with sparse greyish pubescence ; wings hyaline, with 

 slight indications of infuscation at apical margin, nervures testaceous, 

 tegulse yellow. 



Long. 8-9 mm. 



Habitat — Quetta ; Peshin ; fairly common. 



NOMADA ANNEXA, n. Sp, 



9 Head and thorax closely and deeply punctured, abdomen impunc- 

 tate ; clypeus sub-porrect, its apex almost transverse ; a carina between 

 bases of antennse, 2nd and 3rd joints of fiagellum subequal ; scutellum 

 bi-lobed, prominent ; median segment with an enclosed triangular 

 space finely rugose. Dark-red ; tho antennae above, mesonotuin and 

 the greater part of the median segment black ; abdomen lighter red, 

 shining, with lateral yellow spots on 2nd and 3rd segments, the spots 

 on the latter being very small, the segments at base inclining to black ; 

 scarcely any pubescence, except on the apical abdominal segment, where 

 it is greyish fuscous ; wings subhyaline, slightly infuscated at apex ; 

 tegul?e red, nervures piceous ; only two cubital cells, the 2nd being 

 formed from what is usually the 2nd and 3rd, though there is no sign 

 of a transverse cubital nervure between them. 

 Long. 5 mm. 



Habitat — Kashmir ; two specimens obtained between 5,000 and 6,000* 

 feet. 



This species, which agrees in every other respect with the genus 

 Nomada, can be easily recognised by having only two cubital cells. 

 As I obtained two specimens exactly similar at the same place it can, 

 I think, scarcely be considered an occasional li sport," though I believe 

 that this genus has not previously been obtained with only two cubital 

 cells. 



I obtained at Quetta also the following species of JSfomada, which have 

 j\ot previously been recorded from Indian limits : — 



N. coxalis (Mor.). 



N. distingnenda (Mor.}. 



N. furva (Panzer).
