ha.nd down the centre of the 3rd and 4th segments and the base of 

 the oth in the centre, rufous. Wings dark fuscous : the stigma, 

 except at the base, ochraceous ; a hyaline cloud in the 1st cubital 

 cellule, extended into the discoidal cellule, and one on either side 

 of the base of the radial nervure in the hind wings. Female. 



Length 18, terebra 22 mm. 



AntennaB shorter than the body, stout ; the scape about 4 times 

 longer than wide, thickly covered with long black hair. Face 

 coarsely, rugosely punctured, sparsely covered with long black 

 hair, Mesonotum flat behind. The apex of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 

 4th alidomiual segments closely, longitudinally striated ; the area 

 on the 2nd segment is large, closely longitudinally striated, and 

 becomes gradually narrowed to a sharp point ; its bordering 

 depressions are stoutly obliquely striated ; the lateral apical 

 depressions are obliquely striated. The 3rd abscissa of radius is 

 nearly as long as the basal 2 united ; the recurrent nervure is 

 received in the apex of the 1st cubital cellule. Basal two joints of 

 fore tarsi as long as the tibiae. 



tphiaula.r ruhrinervis, sp. nov. 



Vermilion-red ; antennae, the front and vertex, except along 

 the orbits narrowly, occiput, a broad mark on the centre of 

 mesonotum, extending from its base to the middle, a longer, 

 narrower one on the sides extending from near the base to the 

 apex, an obscure mark on the base of scutellum a mark, longer 

 than broad, on either side of the centre of the base of metanotum, 

 followed by a thinner one of the same length on the outer side of 

 the apex, presternum, mesosternum, a broad line on the centre of 

 mesopleurae, on the apical two-thirds, a mark, longer than broad, 

 on the apex above it, and a somewhat pyriform mark near the 

 apex below it, black. Wings fuscous ; the base to the transverse 

 Imsal nervure fuscous-hyaline, the 1st cubital cellule and a cloud 

 in front of the recvirrent nervure, extending to the opposite side 

 of the wings, hj^aline ; and the basal two-thirds of the hind wings 

 are greyish in front ; the costa and stigma and the basal half of 

 the costal nervure in the hind wings are rufous. Legs coloured 

 like the body ; the hinder tarsi from the apex of the 1st joint 

 blackish. Female.
