narrow median line. Meso- and metathorax dark greyish-brown, 

 with a narrow yellow hind border. Abdomen pale greyish- 

 brown. Legs testaceous, dark brown-haired ; femora with a 

 blackish band at tip, and with a long dark streak on the ventral 

 side; tibiae with a narrow blackish band at tip and base, and the 

 foremost with a long dark streak on the upper side; tarsi blackish: 

 spurs yellowish-red, and nearly as long as the two basal joints. 

 Wings long and slender, with acute tips, whitish, black-banded, 

 longitudinal nervures; crossveins mostly blackish, several of them 

 brownish-shaded. Wings with some blackish-brown markings. 



Length of forewing, 26 mm ; of hindwing, 25 mm.

Cu forks beyond origin of radial sector. Three or four cross- 

 veins before radial sector in forewing, one in hindwing. In 

 forewing, lA and Cuo unite before the margin. In the middle 

 of the apical part of the wing, the bent branches of the radial 

 sector form a straight line. 



Type : Myrmeleon pulchellus Ramb. 



Banks proposed this genus for the Australian species of Glen- 

 urus Hag., but the species placed in the genus, as it is restricted 

 at present, form a rather heterogeneous group as to the form of 

 the wings, and the length and slender ness of the legs and tarsal 

 joints. In G. indecisum and G. annulicorne, we have very broad 

 wings, with broadly rounded tips, slender and rather long legs 

 and tarsal joints; in G. pulchellum and G. dissolutum, the wangs 

 are broad, with somewhat acute tips, and the legs and tarsal 

 joints of usual size; in G.falsum and G. meteoricum, the wings 

 are slender and narrow, and the legs and tarsal joints relatively 

 stout, short, and strongly haired. With regard to the form of 

 the wings, these two species are closely allied to the species of 

 the genus Dendroleon, in which, however, the species have slender 

 and relatively long legs, and tarsal joints as in the G. indecisum- 

 group
