is irregularly widened below at the base of the wing, and is extending 

 to the wing-apex ; cross^band well-defined, blackish without any cleared 

 spot on the proper band, with almost straight outer margin (in 

 some specimens very slightly outwardly angulated in the submar- 

 ginal cell), from about two-third the length of the radial vein to near 

 the end of the third veinlet from the discai cell ; the inner margin of 

 the cross-band from the tip of praefurca to the extreme of the second 

 basal cell straight, running along the upper branch of the postical fork 

 and reaching to near its apex ; an accessory blackish marking on the 

 lower branch of the postical fork hardly touching to the proper cross- 

 band at the base of the postical cell, and extending from the base of 

 the lower branch of the postical fork to the apical end of the anal cell; 

 anal cell usually very narrowly open, but sometimes closed at the wing- 

 margin ; fourth posterior cell slightly contracted at the margin ; the 

 upper branch of the cubital fork without any recurrent veinlet ; veins 

 brownish excepting of the postical and anal veins pale yellowish. Squamae 

 usually smoky brown, with the blackish margins, the alar pair bearing 

 a black fringe but the thoracal pair furnished with a very inconspicuous 

 yellowish one ; halteres blackish but slightly obscured by a greyish 

 dust; with the very thin stalk. 



Legs brown to brownish black, excepting of the basal joint oi 

 the middle and hind tarsi usually yellowish brown ; fore coxae longer 

 than half the length of the femora, moderately covered with very short 

 brownish or blackish hairs and on the basal half with a few rather 

 long pale yellow hairs ; fore femora (including the trochanter) a little 

 longer than the tibiae, not dilated, furnished with rather numerous 

 moderately long brownish or blackish hairs which become shorter and 

 sparser towards the lower margin ; fore tibiae very slightly paler than 

 the femora, densely covered with very short depressed hairs which 

 are always darker than the colour of tibiae ; middle femora ( with the 

 trochanter) as long as the tibiae, covered with many short depressed 

 brownish or blackish hairs which are intermixed with somewhat lony;
