'ihorax. — Pronotntn with coiub. Internal iucrassation situated at anterior 

 margin of metasteronm longer than it is broad and slightly curved upwards. 



Abdomen. — Second segment with complete comb ; third to si.\th tergitcs

 side. Two receptacula seminis. 



Leys. — The first segment of the midtarsns mucli longer than the second. The 

 fifth segment of all the tarsi small, with ."> lateral liristles, the first [lair not being 

 more ventral than the others.

8. Ctenoparia inopinata spec nov. (PI. X. figs. T, S). 



Head. — The IVons bears an anterior row of 8 bristles, further back two rows 

 of 3 strong bristles each, and beneath the vestigial eye 1 more long bristle, there 

 being also a number of small hairs in between these bristles. The ventral genal 

 edge has a comb of S sjiines. The occiput bears three rows of bristles. The rostrum 

 readies to the ajiex cif the forccoxa, the labial palpus consisting of five segments. 

 The first segment of the maxillary palpus is longer than the second. 



Thorax.— The pronotum bears a comb of 28 spines and two rows of bristles, 

 besides some additional dorsal bristles. The meso- as well as the metanotum bears 

 five rows of bristles, the anterior rows being somewhat irregular in position. The 

 epimerum of the mctathorax bears three rows of bristles (about 13 altogether). 



Abdomen. — All the tergites have two rows of bristles besides a few dorsal 

 bristles in front of these rows. The second tergite bears a comb of 38 spines, the 

 other tergites having no spines at the apex. The three aiitepygidial bristles of the 

 seventh tergite are of ecpial lenglli, being longer than the secmid hindtarsal segment. 

 The steruites of segments three to six have a row of 4 bristles on each side and 

 before this row several smaller bristles. The apical edge of these sternites is 

 distinctly emarginate. 



I.i'lis. — The forecoxa is very hairy. The sinus posteriorly near the apex of the 

 liindeoxa is deep and narrow. The hiudfemur bears ventrally before the apex 

 3 bristles on the outer side and 1 on the inner. The tibiae have several irregular 

 rows of bristles on the outer surface. Tlie foretibia has 7 Imig and about 13 short 

 and stout dorsal bristles. The hiadlibia has 17 to 2U shorter and only 4 long dorsal 

 bristles. The tarsi are very hairy, but tlie hairs are short. The longest apical 

 bristle of the first and second hindtarsal segments reaches just beyond the centre 

 of the following segment. The proportional lengths of the segments are in the 

 midtarsns 4.3, 2'J, \6, 12, 22, and in the hindtarsus 73, 58, 30, \i<, 22. 



Modified Segments. — ?. The seventh steruite is ventrally produced into a lobe 

 on each side, as shown in the figure (PI. X. fig. 8). The eighth tergite is completely 

 divided in the dorsal line. It bears about small hairs above the stigma, 2 beneath 

 it, and about 12 bristles on the ventral portion of the sides. Of these latter bristles 

 the most dorsal apical one is much the longest. The stylet is almost cylindrical, 

 and is more than four times as long as it is broad at its base. It bears 1 long 

 apical bristle and 2 minute hairs near this bristle, as in ilacropsijlla liercidea 

 Rothsch. (ivin.".).
