From R. Jcambangani de Meijere,* from Java, R. ferruginosa 
Brunetti,^ R. unicolor Brunetti,^ and R. inconspicua Brunetti ; * the 
three last-named species from British India, this new form differs in

ETJRHAMPHIDIA, new subgenus. 
Rostrum elongated as in RhampTiidia Meigen; differs from Rham- 
pliidia, s. s., in the fusion of R2+3 with R4+5 for a considerable 
distance beyond the radio-median cross-vein. This character occurs 
in no other member of this tribe of crane-flies with the exception 
of the genus RhampJiolimnohia, new genus, described below.
