 half dorsad distinctly banded by narrow golden yellowish stHpes 

 (two or three), the wings very dark.

 tris Girault and a Polynema). 



Genus Polynema Haliday. 

 1 . Polynema devriesi, new species. 



Male: Length, L2 mm. 



Somewhat similar to both draperi and romanesi Girault, but 

 differing from the former in having the discal cilia of the fore 

 wing much coarser, from the latter in the same point, from both in 

 general coloration being ferruginous, the distal third of the abdomen 

 black. Scape and pedicel concolorous, the flagellum black, its 

 joints very long, as are also the proximal tarsal joints. About nine 

 lines of rather coarse discal cilia, the marginal cilia longer than the 

 wing's greatest width. Distal tarsal joints black. Wings ob- 

 scurely fumated, the posterior ones very narrow, the fore wings 

 narrowing proximad before venation. 



(From one specimen, similarly magnified).
