NB. II, Mr. Walker had labeled A. limbota with the generie 

 .name Suragina Walk. I am not prepared either to maintain or to 

 reject this genus; but it is certainly most closely allied to Atherix, 

 which Mr. Walker did not even notice (J. Pr. Lin. Soc. IV, 110). It 

 remains to be proved whether A. limbata is really congeneric with 

 Suragina illucens (Celebes) the type of the genus. 



Chrysopila correcta n. sp. $. Wings suhhyaline, their 

 distal half luith ttvo hroivn, sometimes nearly coalescent crossbands, 

 which leave but a narrow hyaline margin between the apex and 

 the third posterior cell. — Length 7 — 8 mm. 



Head yellowish-brown; sides of the face whitish; antennae brownish- 

 yellow, third joint brown; arista brown, paler at base; palpi brown. 

 Thorax brown, more or less yellowish on and around the humeri. Ab- 

 domen reddish-yellow above, with ill-defined brown spots in the middle 

 of the segments; venter brown. Thorax and abdomen are clothed with 

 a delicate golden pubescence. Halteres reddish -yellow, with a brown 

 ring before the knob. Front coxae yellowish; the other coxae brown; 

 legs brownish-yellow, tibiae and tarsi slightly darker. Wings yellowish- 

 hyaline; a brown cloud on the distal end of the anal cell; two broad 

 brown crossbands on the distal half of the wing; their interval being 

 narrow, they have one or more points of contact (so that in different

specimens this interval appears either as a subhyaline narrow cross- 

 band, or as a series of irregular subhyaline spots); the edges of the 

 bands are jagged; the proximal edge of the inner crossband begins at 

 the anterior margin between the ends of the auxiliary and first veins; 

 it ends in the fifth posterior cell, near the end of the fifth vein. — 

 Two females. 



NB. In the structure of the face this species differs from the 

 european species of Chrysopila; its middle portion is very large and 

 projects over the palpi; the latter are very hairy. 



I cannot identify C. correcta with C. macidipennis Wk. J. Proc. 

 Lin. Soc. I. 118 (Borneo), althought they have some points in common.
