Da Mac Lachlan seine Stücke von llawai mit einem Stücke von den kleinen Antillen 

 (Antigua identifiziert, ist es sehr wahrscheinlich dass Oligotoma insularis synonym zu Oligotoma 

 Latreillei (Rambur 1S42 ist, zumal die Beschreibung völlig auf diese passt. 



Mac Lachlan, loc. cit., 1883, p. 227: 



« Body entirely pitchy fuscous; mouth parts inclining to reddish; clothed with fine whitish 

 pubescence. Head gently convex above, with 110 discal depression. Eres large, coarsely facted, black. 

 Antennae fuscous, annulated with whitish at the sutures, more than t8-jointed (mutilated), basal Joint short 

 and stout, second still shorter but mach thinner, the sueeeeding joints elongate, slender, obconical. 

 Pronotum innre than twice as long as broad, much narrower than the head, the sides slightly narrowed; 

 a transverse impressed line anteriorly before the margin Meso- and Metanota nearly equal, eacb much 

 longer and broader than the pronotum. Anal styles long and slender (asymmetric), the joints nearly equal. 

 Legs pitchy fuscous, clothed with whitish pubescence; trochanters, knees, and tarsi pale testaeeous. " 



Wings narrow, pale fuliginous, the coalescent subcosta and radius dark fuscous; rest of the venation 

 fuscescent; sector simply furcate from about its middle in the anterior wings (much sooner in the posteriori, 

 the radius confluent with its upper brauch betöre the apex; apparently no costal nervules; three nearly 

 equidistant nervules between the upper brauch of the sector and the radius; five complete whitish vittae, one 

 placed in each ol the prineipal areas. 



Length of body (much extented) j-S mm ; expanse 11 ' ,-12 ' ,""". 



Three examples, gummed on card (Blackbi rn, n os 12 and 19). 



The tndian O. Saundersi Wkstw. has the body testaeeous. 



A speeimen in my collection from Antigua (T. A. Marshall) is so similar to O. insularis that I 

 hesitate to separate its therefrom; this has been erroneously recorded as a Mantispa (!) (cf. Proc. Ent. Soc. 

 London, 1878, p. xxxi\"). »
