DISOPHEYS, Forst. 



DiSOPHRYS TESTACEA, sp. nov. 



Testaceous, the front, vertex, upper part of occiput, sides of face 

 broadly to near the clypeus, upper third of malar space on the inner 

 side black, the black prolonged obliquely downwards on the outer side, 

 the apex of the second and the whole of the following abdominal seg- 

 ments and the hind tarsi, black. Wings hyaline, tinged with yellow; 

 the radial, forepart of cubital cellules, and the first discoidal cellules 

 infuscated ; the stigma and nervures yellow ; the costa and forepart 

 of the transverse basal nervures black. <? . 



Length 14-15 mm. 



Cape Colony. East London. 



Face punctured, thickly covered with grey pile ; the clypeus 

 smooth. The antennal keels and the part surrounding them red. 

 The lateral keels reach to the raised ocellar region. Parapsidal 

 furrows deep, smooth. Keel on apex of scutellum distinct, raised on 

 the outer edge. Post-scutellum indicated by a curved keel above ; 

 below it are three keels, of which the central runs to the base of the 

 metanotal depression. On the apical slope of the metanotum are 

 two keels, which unite at the top, forming there a sharp angle ; then 

 diverge obliquely and roundly outwardly, then converge slightly, 

 straight and obliquely towards the apex of the segment ; on the 

 narrowed top part are two indistinct keels above, below two longer 

 distinct ones ; from the lower of these two keels run to the apex, 

 forming a triangular area, outside of which are two keels, the inner 

 running from the top to the middle, the lower from the middle to 

 the bottom. The outer edge of the metanotum is bounded by a 

 stout keel ; inside the spiracles is a less distinct one running to a 

 transverse keel bordering the top of the apical slope, forming an area 

 of equal width, but longer than wide and transverse above and 

 below. Abdomen smooth. Areolet large, wider behind than before, 

 through the second transverse cubital nervure sloping towards the 

 cubitus ; it is dilated shortly below the middle. Malar space as long 

 as the eyes. Palpi testaceous, thickly covered with white pubescence. 



"DiSOPHRYS RUFA, Sp. nOV. 



Rufous, front, vertex, occiput, sides of face broadly, upper two- 

 thirds of malar space, and the apex of the first joint of the hind 

 tarsi, black ; wings fuscous, the greater part of the first two cubital 

 cellules, a band, longer than broad, reaching close to the apex of the 

 wings, and one on either side of the transverse median and the
