Bymenojjlein. 137 



tinctly beyond the transverse basal : cubitus in hind wing received 

 before the transverse median ; tarsi stoutly spined. 



This species looks more like a Salt us or AnopJiv^'s than a 

 Pseudagenia or Agenia. 



Pseudagenia iridipennis, sp. nov. 



Length 13 mm. 



This species is verj- similar to P. rohu-f^fa ; the two may be 

 separated thus : — 



Legs and an temife black; median segment not furrowed; the cubitus 



in kind wings interstitial. Length 13 mm. {iridipennis). Legs 



and antennas for the greater part dark red ; metanotum distinctly 



furrowed ; the cubitus nervure in hind wings received before 



transverse median. Length 18 mm. {rohusta). 



Entirely black, except the greater part of Diandibles, and apex 



of clyjjeus ; he-ad and thorax opTique, abdomen shining ; eyes 



slightly diverging below ; malar space almost absent ; ocelli in a 



curve, the hinder separated from each other by about the same 



distance they are from the eyes : temples obliquely roundly 



narrowed ; apex of clypeus broadly rounded ; median segment 



closely transversely striated, the stria? becoming coarser towards 



the apex, which is broadly rounded above and laterally. The 



segment is clearly longer than it is broad at the base ; second 



abscissa of radius about one-third longer than the 3rd ; the 1st and 



•3rd transverse cubital nervures are obliquely bent in front, the 



latter more sharply than the 1st ; both the recurrent nervures are 



received beyond the middle ; the 2nd farther than the 1st ; cubitus 



in hind wing interstitial. 



Pseudagenia cethiopica^ sp. nov. 



Reddish-orange, the mesonotum at the sides of the scutellums, 

 median segment, pro- and mesopleurfc, the basal half of the 1st 

 abdominal segment, and the ventral surface in the middle, black : 

 legs coloured like the body, all the coxae, black ; wings hyaline 

 slightly suffused with fuscous ; the nervures a^d stigma black : 

 antenna? coloured like the body. -Male> 



Length 10 mm. 



Head sparsely covered with pale hairs. Eyes on the inner 

 border clearly converging above. Ocelli in a black spot, which 

 projects obliquely beyond them in front and is there incised in 

 the middle ; the hinder are separated from the eyes by a distinctly
