answering to his description. The genital characters are such, however, 

 that I think it may be considered a new species, for which I propose the 

 name Hydromctra australis. The figures attached (Figs. 3 and 4 ) show 

 the differences in the genitah'a, drawn from my specimen (a male), for 

 australis, and red^wn from Mai tin's figures for Marti?!!. 



In addition to the characters drawn from the genitalia, it differs from

 material has prevented me from making the detailed study necessary to 

 indicate them minutely, but careful examination of my single specimen 

 leaves no doubt as to their presence.

 abdomen and legs shining iridescent green. Basal half of front wing and 

 outer half along costa black or very dark brown, heavily overlaid with 

 iridescent green. The dark basal half is outwardly margined by the

 point. All the outer half of vving, except the dark costal streak, is dull 

 ochreous, inwardly margined by a pale yellow line, the latter adjoining 

 the dark line of ground colour outlining the basal half. The ochreous 

 and yellow touch the costa at ihe middle only, and the ochreous 

 shade encloses the dark costal patch, the latter divides the apex and is 

 one half the width of the wing except at its inner end where it is rounded
