AUSTRALIAN NEUROPTERA, 111, 



Myrmeleon LOWERI. 



Tillyard, Proc. Linn. Soc. K S. Wales, 1916, p. 65. 



Brewarrina, N.S.W.; a fine male specimen (W. AV. Froggatt 

 leg.): Coll. Froggatt. 



In the male, the appendages are rather long, yellowish, pro- 

 vided with long, black bristles; their tips somewhat curved. 



Aeanthaelisini.

In my "Australian Neuroptera," Part ii., p. 58, 1915, I ex- 

 pressed some doubt with regard to the validity of the Kavasiaii 

 genus Cosina. I have since altered my opinion concerning this 

 question. Cosina may be regarded as a good and distinct genus, 

 the main characters of it being the oblong wings, the dense 

 reticulation, and the great number of cross-veins before the 

 origin of Rs in the hind wing (i.e., Rs arises further out than in 

 the other genera of the Tribe). 



Cosina maclachlani. 



Weele, Notes Leyden Museum, p. 2 10, 1904. 



One female specimen from Queensland, 20/xii./1912 (W. W. 

 Froggatt leg.). 



This species is the type of the genus. -Acanth. annulata Esb.- 

 Peters., should also be placed in the genus. 



NYMPHID^. 

 Nesydrion fuscum. 

 Gerstaecker, Mitth. naturw. Verein fiir Neuvorpom. und 

 Riigen, p. 48, 1884; Esben-Petersen, Proc. Linn. Soc. N. S. 

 Wales, 1914, p.638, PI. Ixxii., fig.3. 



Mackay, Queensland; one specimen of this very rare insect, 

 1905 (Turner leg.); Coll. Froggatt. 



Myiodactylus osmyloides.* 

 Brauer, Verhandl. k.-k. zool.-bot. Gesell., Wien, 1866, p. 991. 



* I can not follow Handlirsch in regarding Myiodactylus and Osinylops 

 as forming a family Myiodactylida'. Although these genera in several 

 points differ from the true Nymphid genera, e.y., in the form of the wings, 

 the absence of spurs, etc., I think it is the most natural arrangement to 

 place llifiii ill llic Xy/njjhidic.
