Genus ANASTATUS Motschulsky. 



Synonyms: Fariujumia Girault; Oodrrclloiilif: (Jirault. 



T thought this genus would prove the sanu^ as KKpi'Inius but the sliajte of the abdonuui. 

 Iliough not greatly different, may be constant. The genus may be distinguished from IiH])clinr.s 

 by reason of the fact that the abdomen gradually widens nearly to apex and then rapidly 

 narrows to form an obtuse apex. In Eupclmiis. the abdomen gradually widens from base 

 to about middle or a little distad of middle, then gradually narrows to apex. Also in Anastatu.s 

 the dorsum is usually more depressed, sometimes markedly so. The species often bear bifasciate 

 wings and a silvery band about the base of the abdomen. The ring-joint is really funicle 1 ; 

 it may be distinctly longer than wide. 



1. ANASTATUS PIPUNCULI Perkins. Female. 

 Length, 2 mm. Head and face reddish purple, the vertex with short black hairs; the 

 face with white, short but conspicuous pubescence; the surface dull, mugli with indefinite 

 sculpture. Antennae subelavate, dark, metallic in some aspects; l.T-jointed with one ring-joint. 

 Eyes divergent cephalad, the ocelli in a triangle which is much widest at base, the caudal one 

 near the eye margins. Thorax lilackish |iurpli\ the nu'souot:il ridges sharji, parallel, the clothing 

 white and conspicuous and, like the si'uli>ture, very similar to that of the face. Wings fuscous, 

 hairy, a hyaline, hairless, rather narrow, slightly curved transverse band beneath the marginal 

 vein (at about its middle) and a clear space at the liase of the wing. Stigmal vein long but 

 shorter than the postmarginal. Hind tibial spurs double, much unequal. Tarsi more or less 

 yellowish brown, the caudal tarsi darker; nearly all of caudal legs blackish, also the middle 

 jind cephalic tibise, their femora largely dark brown or blackish alsu. .-Vbdomen jiurplish black.
