NEUROPTEROID INSECTS FROM SZECHWAN — BANKS 191 



CHRTSOPA ALETHES, new species 



Plate 27, Figure 15 



Head pale yellowish, a dark mark on cheek, and lateral edge of 

 clypeus dark ; antennae pale ; palpi largely black. Thorax pale, pro- 

 notum with a reddish stripe on each lateral margin ; legs pale. Fore- 

 wings with partly pale venation, but about ten or more costals 

 wholly black, the radials partly dark, gradates and the anal branches 

 dark, and also several cross veins in basal part of wing. In hind- 

 wings the costals on basal half of wing are dark, the gradates more 

 or less dark, a few radials are partly darkened. 



Wings of moderate width, tips subacute; hairs of moderate 

 length. 



In forewings the divisory veinlet ends beyond the cross vein, seven 

 cubitals beyond it; the postcubital space not twice as broad as the 

 cubital, but a little broader than the costal area, no costal cell three 

 times as long as broad; about 12 radials; gradates about seven in 

 each row, rows nearly parallel, the inner row extended basally for 

 one or two cells. In the costal area of the stigma are a few cross 

 veins, and in the subcostal part about four cross veins. 



In hindwings are four inner gradates and six in outer row, the 

 rows about parallel; the triangle between radial sector and median 

 vein is rather small. 



Pronotum broader than long, obliquely narrowed each side in 

 front. 



Length of forewing, 12 mm., width, 4.5 mm. 



From Taichow, May 15 (holotype), and Chengtu, May 1. By 

 the numerous black cross veins it resembles G. Mansuensis, but the 

 palpi in that species are wholly pale. Holotype, U.S.N.M. No. 

 53151. Paratype in M.C.Z. 



CHRYSOPA ILLOTA Navas 



Plate 29, Fiqiibe 48 



Head pale, face with three subequal dark spots each side, one 

 below outer edge of the antenna, one below eye, and one at end of 

 the clypeus ; palpi dark, antennae pale, pronotum with anterior corner 

 somewhat reddish. Forewing with costals wholly, the gradates 

 faintly, anal branches, base of radial sector, first intermediate, and 

 the divisory black ; radials dark at upper end. 



About 12 inner gradates and 7 or 8 outer, in each row they are 

 rather widely separated, the two rows subparallel, except the basal 

 extension of inner row. 



Divisory ends beyond the cross vein, eight cubitals beyond ; radial 

 sector but little curved; post cubital area once and a half as broad 

 as the cubital area.
