shorter one, rounded broadly at the base, dilated below along 

 the sides, and broad bands on the other segments, broadly 

 dilated backwards in the middle, pale yellow. Four anterior coxse, 

 trochanters and femora red, their tibiae and tarsi pale yellowisli : 

 the hind legs black; the inner sides and basal half of the hind 

 coxœ below, red ; a broad irregular band (broadest below) of 

 yellow colour, tinged with testaceous, on the basal half of 

 the tibiae ; the tarsi white. Wings hyaline, the nervures and 

 stigma black ; the areolet small, twice longer than wide, narrow,

Length 16 m.m. 



Sikkim. 



Face strongly punctured in the middle, the sides more 

 sparsely and weakly ; the clypeus almost impunctate. Vertex 

 smooth, the upper half of front with a stout central keel ; the 

 rest with stout, curved striae, the inner much more rounded than 

 the outer. Middle of central lobe of mesonotum strongly, but not 

 closely punctured ; the sides stoutly, closely, irregularly striated, 

 those on the basal half stronger and more widely separated than 

 on the apical ; the inner half of the outer lobes stoutly reticu- 

 lated, the outer closely punctured. Scutellum smooth, sparsely 

 punctured ; the basal depression with 3 stout keels. Base of meta- 

 notum smooth, obscurely sparsely punctured ; in the centre of its 

 apical half are 2 stout, curved keels, M'hich converge at the apex, 

 the space between them being depressed ; the middle bears deep, 

 clearly separated punctures, intermixed at the basal half with 

 stout, curved, more or less oblique striae ; the apical slope 

 irregularly stoutly reticulated, more strongly on the centre than 

 on the sides ; the spines broad at the base, narrowed towards 

 the apex ; they are not much longer than they are wide at 

 the base. Pleurae closely punctured ; the puncturation beco-
