IIAKYIAPA. 415 



Unfortunately I have seen but a single example of this very 

 remarkable insect, and that in so bad a condition that I am 

 unable to determine the sex. 



Genus BARYLYPA, Fdrsf. 

 Baryhjpa, Forster, A'eili. \)v. liheiul. 18G8, p. l-iG. 

 Gen'Ottpe, Anomalon persincillator, Grav. 



Clypeus anteriorly rounded and not centrally produced ; labrum 

 not prominent. Tarsal claws not pectinate ; hind femora simple. 

 Areolet wanting ; second recurrent continuous with submarginal 

 nervure ; first abscissa of cubital nervu.re obsolete or wanting ; 

 basal length of third discoidal cell not as broad as length of 

 transverse median nervure ; nervellus distinctly geniculate. 



Hanr/e. Pahearctic liegion. 



This genus had simply been utilised as a subdivision of Anomalon 

 up to 1901 ; bnt in 1906 several species were assigned to it from 

 British India, since Ashmead had brought it into some prominence 

 during 1900. Thomson (Opusc. Ent. xvi, p. 1766) differentiates 

 it from Trklioinma by its glabrous eyes, and from Agryjjoii by the 

 second recurrent being continuous with the submarginal nervure 

 and the nervellus being distinctly geniculate. 



Cameron has constructed (Jouru. Bombay Xat. Hist. 8oc. 1906, 

 p. 280) a mere colour chart of liis five species, which may be of 

 use and is given below; but something more than colour is 

 necessary and a table, drawii from the t3"pe specimens in Colonel 

 ]S'urse's collection, is appended.
