Closely related to L. annulatn. Taylor, but may be distinguished 

 by the absence of apical banding on the pal})i and first tarsals, 

 the brown-scaled scutellum, the pale venter, and wing-venation; 

 from L. plpglpennis Theob., by the thoracic flat scales and the 

 wing-venation.

Having compared the type of C. saibaii with a long series of 

 C sitiens, I find that they are one and the same species, and, 

 therefore, place the former name as a synonym of the latter.
