forming an oblique streak, and the forkings of veins beyond are dark, stig- 

 ma barely distinct, cross-veins dark at ends; in hind-wings there is a dark 

 dot at end of median and cubital veins. Antennae rather long and slender, 

 annulate throughout with dark; pronotum planly broader than long, not. 

 narrowed in front; abdomen shorter than the wings; wings shaped as in 

 F. dims and F. morpheus, eight cross-veins before the radial sector in fore- 

 wing; thirteen branches to radial sector, about 48 costals before stigma; 

 legs rather short, spurs as long as three joints or a little more, last tarsal 

 joint as long as others together. Expanse, 76 mm. 



From Los Banos, Philippine Islands (Baker.) Closely related 

 to F. dints (of Ceylon)and F. morpheus (which occurs in several 

 Malay Islands, Java, etc.), but abdominal marks will distinguish 

 it at once; the Ceylonese F. gravis and the Australian F. vafer arc 

 also different, and not closely related to F. dims. 



Formicaleon disjunctus n. sp. 



Dark brown, with paler brown marks. Face below antennae yellow, 

 tips of antennae pale, vertex with a transverse row of six rufous spots, the 

 lateral next to eye, the inner pair contiguous; pronotum with a gray median 

 line, not distinct, outer margin blackish, mesothorax with large gray spot 

 behind and a median line in front, and a short gray line on each lateral lobe ; 

 metathorax mostly gray above, but with a black mark at inner anterior 

 part of lateral lobes; abdomen with pale transverse spots at base and before 

 middle of several segments; legs pale, tips of last tarsal joint, tip of tibia? 

 and middle of fore and mid-tibia; black, black and a few white bristles on 

 legs, many are much longer than width of the joint, femora rather densely 

 clothed with fine white hair. Wings hyaline, veins interrupted black and 

 white, ends of many cross-veins dark, but others wholly pale, base of stig- 

 ma dark, a dark spot on the cross-vein behind it and on cross-vein beyond : 

 gradates and outer forkings clouded with dark, and a spot at end of anal 

 vein of the fore-wings. Antennae long and slender; pronotum little longer 

 than broad, and slightly narrowed in front; spurs equal two; tarsal joints. 

 Wings rather slender, acute at tips, six cross-veins in fore-wing before radial 

 sector, 9 branches to radial sector, 5 cross-veins between anal and cubital 

 fork in fore-wings, one such veinlet in the hind-wings; gradates much dis- 

 jointed, in three series, the anterior a row of 5, behind are two rows one 

 before of four veinlets, and one beyond the anterior row of three veinlet.-; 

 behind the stigma the cross-veins are almost in even rows. Expanse, 57 mm. 







From Los Banos and Mt. Makiling, Philippine Islands (Baker).
