FAMILY HEMEROBIID^. 



Megalomus setulosus Walker. 



Walker says his Hemerobius setulosus is near the European H. hirta 

 (now Megalomus), so it cannot be a Micromus as considered by one 

 author. This specimen agrees well with his description. The basal 

 dark brown of fore-wing terminates obliquely at the inner gradate 

 series; there are seven radial sectors, the first and last of which are 

 soon forked; the costal area is very broad; in the hind wings are only 

 a few brown spots near tip of the wing. 



It has some resemblance to the M. latus of Arizona. It has recently 

 been described by Longinos Navas as M. nouhalieri. 



From Kasaull, India, April. 



FAMILY CHRYSOPID^. 

 TABLE OF SPECIES OF CHRYSOPA. 



1. A narrow, black stripe under each eye, and stripe on basal 



joint of antennae orestes 



No such marks 2 



2. Practically all cross-veins black at each end alcestes 



Few cross-veins so marked 3 



3. Costal margin rather suddenly swollen just before the stigma 



madestes 



Costal margin only gradually widened 4 



4. Gradate veinlets black virgestes 



Gradate veinlets pale scelestes 



Chrysopa orestes, new species. 



Pale yellowish or green; tips of palpi black, a narrow black stripe 

 under each eye to the mouth, and a dark stripe on outer side of basal 

 joint of antennae. Venation pale, but the gradate veinlets brown, and 

 also the ends of some of the cross- veins. Antennae longer than wings; 

 pronotum broad, but little narrowed in front, with a transverse 

 groove and ridge behind the middle. Fore wings rather short and 

 broad, barely acute at tips, second cubital cell as long as third, latter 

 very oblique at tip, being much longer below than above; divisory 

 veinlet ends beyond the cross-vein; six branches of radial sector to 

 the margin; four or five inner gradate veinlets, seven in outer series; 

 the inner row plainly nearer to outer than to the radial sector. In 

 hind wings the radial sector unites to median for more than a cell- 

 length. Expanse 20 mm. 



From Pusa, Bengal, India; on black orange mealy-wing, 

 September 7. 



Chrysopa alcestes, new species. 



Pale yellowish or greenish, unmarked. Wings with most of the 

 cross-veins dark or dark at ends. Fore-wings moderately broad,
