No. 2361. DESCRIPTIONS OF NEW SAWFLIES—ROHWER. 103 



eralty by furrows, not defined anteriorly; antennal joints strongly 

 produced beneath at apex so when seen from the side they appear 

 serrate; front with close, sometimes confluent punctures; prescutum 

 anteriorly, with close fine punctures posteriorly nearly impunctale; 

 scutum with scattered punctures which are closer along the notauli; 

 scutellum. with close, well-defined punctures; metascutum polished, 

 mesepisternum with well defined, rather close punctures, when seen 

 from the front angled below; propodeum polished except in middle; 

 stigma rounded below; second cubital distinctly shorter than third; 

 sheath rather narrow, concave above, rounded apically, convex 

 beneath. Black; clypeus, labrum (except apex) spot on mandibles; 

 scape, pedicellum, base of first flagellar joint, posterior margin of 

 pronotum narrowly, tegulae (except a small spot), perapteron, large 

 spot on anterior margin of mesepisternum, band on scutellum, and 

 propodeum yellowish- white ; first (beyond propodeum) four abdon- 

 inal segments red; legs black; spot on coxae (anterior pair almost 

 entirely), trochanters, apices of four anterior femora, posterior 

 femora beneath, tibiae except a spot on apices of hind pair and a 

 line on top of four anterior pair, tarsi except apices of joints and a 

 line beneath of hind basitarsis yeUovAsIi-iohite. Wings dusky h} r aline, 

 to base of stigma and stigmella, beyond brownish; venation black. 



Type locality. — Cherrapunji, Assam. 



Described from one female collected at an altitude of 4,400 feet 

 (about 1,333 meters) in October (2-8), 1914, by S. W. Kemp. 



Type. — Indian Museum, 8 |% x . 



Subfamily Empriinae. 



AMONOPHADNUS, new genus. 



Genotype. — Amonophadnus submetatticus Rohwer. 



Allied to Monophadnus and Parachar actus, but differs from them 

 in the longer hind basitarsis, dentation of claws, venation, etc. 

 Senoclidea and Parazarca have the long hind basitarsis and are 

 closely allied, but have the claws different. 



Belongs to Blennocampini. Clypeus truncate; malar space very 

 narrow; eyes distinctly converging to clypeus, the distance between 

 them at clypeus subequal with their length; orbits not carinate; 

 antennae hairy, pedicellum longer than its apical width, third joint 

 longer than fourth; nervulus less than its length from apex of cell; 

 interradius and third intercubitus inclined at different angles; dis- 

 coidellan cell present in both sexes; basitarsi longer than three follow- 

 ing joints; claws long, heavy at base, with an erect inner tooth near 

 middle; metaepimeron narrow; first tergal spiracle near base.
