Eiirinopsychc arborca sp. nov. 



Differs from obscurata by the size of the eyes, which in the

 Udngania splciidciis (Germar).

 in my collection from J. C. W. Kershaw). It has also been re-

 tibiae being distinctly bi- or triangulate with brownish. 

 a character not apparently mentioned in any descriptions of the

Elcctryonc gen. nov. 



Differs from Piitala Melichar by the vertex being regularly 

 narrowed towards the apex, while in Piifala it is suddenly nar- 

 rowed before the eyes ; the hind margin of the pronotum is ob-
