thickly imprcsso-punctate and })itted. Eyes small, widely sep- 

 arated. Antennae short. 



■ Pronotum extending well beyond head; margin cephalad sub- 

 cingulate, evenly convex and moderately reflexed to latero-caudal 

 angles, which are weakly produced caudad in female only; caudal 

 margin in male weakly convex, in female weakly conca\e on each 

 side, weakly convex mesad. Pronotum and mesonotum showing 

 a medio-longitudinal carina, this continued on metanotum in 

 female. Female with caudal margin of {)ronotum. mesonotum, 

 metanotum and dorsal abdominal segments minutely but con- 

 spicuously beaded. Tegmina of male delicate, extending well 

 beyond apex of abdomen, widest distad, aj^ex broadly rounded; 

 marginal and anal fields proximad impresso-punctate, remaining 

 portions with veins showing numerous minute swellings but no 

 hairs. Wings of male with anterior field extending much beyond 

 radiate field; proximal portion of radiate field not folding when 

 wings are closed, remaining portion folding as is usual in the 

 Epilamprinae.^-^ Dorsal abdominal segments with latero-caudal 

 angles weakh' produced caudad. 



Supra-anal plate feebly bilobate, subchitinous in male, heavily 

 chitinous in female. Cerci moderately elongate in male, short and 

 lamellate in female. Limbs showing decided atrophy of all spines, 

 surfaces impresso-punctate, with ventro-cephalic and \entro- 

 caudal margins of femora roughly carinate. 



Ventro-cephalic margin of cephalic femora armed with (one to 

 four) short, hea\'y, irregular spines, succeeded l)y an irregular row 

 of very minute, short spines, terminated by a small but heavy, 

 though plainly decidedly atrophied, spine; other ventral femoral 

 margins unarmed, except rarely with a single heavy, though greatly 

 atrophied, spine on the cephalic margin of the median or caudal 

 femora. Dorsal genicular spines of median and caudal femora 

 small but heavy, though greatly atrophied. Caudal metatarsus 

 elongate, with two rows of spines \"entrad and a row f)f more dis- 

 tantly placed spines on each side. Four proximal caudal tarsal 

 joints supplied distad with moderately well developed puKilli. 

 Small arolia present in male, subobsolete in female. 



'-' This U"i)C' f)f wing is clearly a transition toward the types found in the Corydiinae 

 and Polyphaginae.
