Lower part of front, face and clypeiis densely covered with 

 silvery pubescence. Eyes roundly curved on inner side, more 

 converging below than above : hinder ocelli separated from each 

 other by a less distance than they are from- the eyes. Temples 

 almost obsolete. Occiput transverse. Apex of ch^peus broadly 

 rounded. Top pai*t of pronotum slightly shorter than mesonotum, 

 the whole length longer than it. Median segment furrowed down 

 the centre : its apex with a steep slope, the sides slightly roundly 

 projecting : the centre of the slope fuiTOwed. Both the recurrent 

 nervures are received shortly beyond the middle of cellules ; apical 

 abscissa of radius oblique, slightly curved upwards. Calcaria and 

 tarsal spines black ; the long hind spur reaching beyond middle 

 of metatarsus. The cubitus in hind wings originates beyond the 

 transverse median ; the transverse basal nervure interstitial ; fore 

 tarsi with long stiff spines on outer.side ; 1st joint of flagellum 

 distinctly longer than the 2nd. Claws with a minute tooth near 

 the base. The metanotum has the apex transverse at the apex : 

 the middle of the apical slope slightly hollowed ; the sides 

 rounded ; the base has a narrow but distinct furrow in the middle. 

 If it were not that the body is densely covered with silvery 

 pile this species might be included in Arachnophila, Ashm.

 along the sides of the mesonotum and a mark in its centre at the 

 base — the mark broader than long — black; wings uniformly dark 

 fuscous-violaceous. Female. . 



Length 11-12 mm. 



Antennae short and stout; the 3rd joint longer than the basal 

 2 united and not quite so long as the 1th and 5th togethei-. Eyes 

 parallel ; hinder ocelli separated from each other by about the 

 same distance they are from the eyes ; apex of clypeus broadly 

 rounded ; temples short, obliquely rounded ; pro thorax large, nearly 

 as long as the mesonotum ; its apex with the sides slightlj- obliquely 

 narrowed towards the centre ; metanotum broader than long, the 

 apex transverse in the middle, the sides rounded. Apical abscissa 

 of radius with an oblique slope and slightly curved upwards ; the 

 3rd cubital cellule much narrowed in front, being there about one- 

 third of the length of the 2nd ; both its nervures are broadly
