298 FAUNA HAWAIIENSIS 



(2) Ante7'is tarsa/is, sp. nov. 



?. Length 2'6 mm. Comes very close to A. nigricornis but differs as follows : 

 the third joint of the funicle is much shorter, being only about half the length of the 

 first, the fourth and fifth being nearly equal, moniliform ; the first joint of the club is 

 much smaller and not nearly as wide as the second joint ; the trochanters, knees, base 

 and tips of tibiae and the tarsi, except the last joint, are honey-yellow or testaceous ; 

 the stigmal vein is distinctly longer, its staff, without the knob, alone being longer than 

 the marginal vein ; while the three or four apical segments of the abdomen are smoother, 

 slightly polished. 



Described from 2 ? specimens, one without number or locality label but presumably 

 taken in Hawaii. 



Hab. ? Hawaii. — Kauai: Makaweli (2000 feet), in January. 



(3) Anteris hawaiiensis, sp. nov. 



?. Length 25 to 27 mm. Opaque black, coriaceous or finely, closely punctate, 

 and sparsely clothed with a short pubescence ; first and second segments of the abdomen 

 longitudinally striate ; pedicel and funicle joints i to 5 brown, or brownish-black ; knees, 

 and sometimes base and apex of tibiae, as well as tarsi basally, testaceous ; wings 

 hyaline, faintly tinged, the venation brown-black, the marginal vein about two-thirds the 

 length of the stigmal, the latter ending in a small, rounded knob, the postmarginal vein 

 being nearly thrice as long as the marginal. 



The head is transvefse-quadrate, with the eyes large oval, faintly hairy. The 

 antennae are 12-jointed and terminate in a 5-jointed club ; the first joint of the funicle 

 is the longest joint, about thrice as long as thick, while the fourth and fifth joints are 

 moniliform, subequal ; the first joint of the club is about twice as wide as long but much 

 narrower than the following joints. The thorax has the parapsidal furrows distinct to 

 the base of the scutellum but widely separated, while the postscutellar ridge is distinctly 

 angulated at the middle. The abdomen is fusiform, longer than the head and thorax 

 united, the first segment much shorter than the second but both longitudinally striate, 

 the second more delicately striate, the following segments being finely, closely punctate, 

 the fourth to the seventh subpolished. 



Described from two specimens.
