NO. 2103. JAVANESE CRANE-FLIES— ALEXANDER. 169 
the tip broadly white; tibiae with the base white, this space being a 
little shorter than the tip of the femora, remainder of the tibiae 
brown except the apical fourth which is white; tarsi white. Wings 
subhyaline, stigma oval, brown, veins brown; venation: (see pi. 43, 
fig. 16), the fusion of B2+3 and E4+5 beyond r-m is longer than 
this cross-vein. 
Abdominal tergites 3 to 7 dark brown on the basal. two-thhds, 
yellowish on the apical third; stcrnites more yellowish; hypopygium 
dark brown. 
Habitat. — New South Wales; Java. 
Twelve specimens in the collection, as follows: Tjibodas, Mount 
Gede, Java; 3 males, 2' females, at 9,000 feet; 1 male at 8,000 feet. 
(Bryant and Palmer). Pangranggo, Java; 4 males, 2 females, 9,000 
feet. (Bryant and Palmer). 
Skuse described this species from New South Wales and it has not 
been found since his time apparently. 
Genus RHAMPHOLIMNOBIA, new genus. 
Antennae 15-segmented, the fust segment elongated. Front 
between the eyes narrowed (in the female), on the lower surface of 
the head the eyes are contiguous. Rostrum very long, powerful, 
compressed, the tip apparantly broken in the unique type, length of 
the rostrum about equal to the head and thorax together, viewed from 
the side, the rostrum at the base is one-haK as deep as the head, 
gradually narrowed toward the tip ; viewed from above very narrow. 
Neck long and narrow. Venation: Rs elongate, gently arcuated at 
the base, i?2+3 ^^^^ ^4+5 fused for a slight distance beyond the 
cross- vein r-m; i?2+3 short, arcuated; cross-vein r-m long, promi- 
nent; basal deflection of Cu^ before the fork of M. 
Type. — Rhampliolimnobia reticularis, new species. 
This genus differs from Elepliantomyia in the contiguity of the eyes 
beneath, the very powerful compressed rostrum, the venation as 
regards the basal fusion of E2+3 and B^ + r^, the position of the basal 
deflection of Cwj, etc. 
RHAMPHOLIMNOBIA RETICULARIS, new species. 
Coloration brown and yeUow; wings hyahne, reticulated with 
brown. 
Female. — Length, 8.2 mm.; wing, 6.4 mm.; rostrum (tip broken?), 
1.8 mm. Rostrum dark browai. Anteimae with the first segment 
gray, the second dark brownish black, third segment light yellow, 
remainder of the antennae light brown. Head light gray with several 
large clove-brown blotches on the middle of the vertex and occiput. 
Cervical sclerites and pronotum brown; suture between the pro- 
and meso-nota yellow. Mesonotal prsescutum light reddish brown
