EPOEA. — EPORIELLA. 



51 



Genus EPORA. (Vol. Ill, p. 282.) 

 3203. Epora montana, Dist. A. M. N. 11. (8) ix, p. 185 (1912). 



Body and legs ocliraceous ; tegmina pale ochraceous ; wings 

 hyaline with the veins pale ochraceous ; vertex of head with a 

 distinct central longitudinal ridge ; face elongate, centrally and 

 longitudinally ridged ; tegmina with the costal membrane some- 

 what closely, obliquely, transversely veined, apical and subapical 

 elongate narrow cells, the apical cells the longer of the two. 



Length excl. tegm. 8 ; exp. tegm. 17 millim. 



Hah. Nilgiri Hills (i/irf/«p*o>i). Bengal; Calcutta ( By^'f. i/'?f.s.). 



Fig. 35. — Kpora montana. 



Allied to E. subtilis. Walk., but readily distinguished from 

 that species by the size and shape of the apical and subapical 

 cells to the tegmina. 



In fresh specimens the ochraceous coloration will be replaced 

 by a virescent hue, as appears in a specimen recently received 

 from Bengal. 



Melichar, Moiiogr. Tropiduch. p. 51 (Yerh. Yer. Briinn, 1914), 

 has placed this species as a synonym of E. subtilis, Walk. Now 

 that I have figured both these species, and the differential 

 characters are detailed {supra), the distinction will be readily 

 appreciated. 



Eporiella, Melich.

Genus EPORIELLA. 



Monof/r. Tropiduch. p. 52 [Verh. Ver. Briinn, 



Type, E. ceijlonica, Melich. 



Distribution. Ceylon. 



Melichar has founded this genus as near Epora and on a 

 Ceylonese species contained in the Hof museum of Yienna. He 

 has not figured it, and owing to the present European war there 

 is no opportunity for my seeing it. I merely therefore call 

 attention to his description.
