58 H. C. EFFLATOUN. 



line spot is in the apical fifth of the wing in R3 cell, with its upper 

 and lower margins touching R2 + 3 and R4-f 5 respectively ; on the 

 hind border the axillary lobe is entirely hyaline and there are three 

 deep hyaline indentations; the first of thèse is the largest, situated 

 below the stigma towards the centre of Cul cell with its upper 

 margin going just beyond M3 + Cul ; the second hyaline indentation 

 is the smallest and situated near the apex of Cul cell immediately 

 below the radio-median cross-vein with its upper margin not reach- 

 ing M3 + Cul ; the third indentation begins at the tip of M3 + Cul 

 and its upper margin touching Ml ; the inner margin of this inden- 

 tation is straight and touches the médian cross-vein above, while its 

 outer margin is wavy ; in addition there are two minute indentations, 

 in the shape of spots, towards the middle of 2nd M2 cell. 

 Squamulae whitish, haltères reddish-yellow. 



Of this interesting species only five spécimens were known ail 

 of which belonged to the Vienna Muséum. They simply bear the 

 label "Natt. 1858, Egypt." It has been found since in Erythrea 

 and redescribed by Bezzi (1908) as l'ephrella rijrlop/ca and by En- 

 derlein (1911) as Tephrella w-fiiscum. 



This is another species which is only known by the vague loca - 

 lity "î^gypt" and for the reasons stated above on p. 30 for th>^ 

 présent this species is only a doubtful member of the Egyptian 

 fauna.
