S . A black species, with the abdomen centrally red and the 

 tibife testaceous. Head distinctly transverse, with the frons 

 rugosely punctate and feebly carinate centrally; mandibles, 

 except apically, and the palpi, testaceous. Antenna' elongate, 

 immaculate, with the ten penultimate joints longer than broad. 

 Thorax black ; propleurae coarsely but not closely traiis-rugose 

 below ; mesopleura? alutaceous and dull ; metathorax longitudinally 

 impressed throughout and basally trans-rugose, with inconspicuous 

 basal carina?. Abdomen black, with the third, most of fourth, and 

 apex of the second segments red, the third with a lateral black 

 line to the spiracles ; basal segment with no lateral fovea? and its 

 spiracles somewhat prominent, broadest between the spiracles 

 and thence gradually constricted to the apex. Legs testaceous, 

 with the base of the anterior coxae, the hind coxaj, their tro- 

 chanters and femora, black ; hind tibiae darkened apically and 

 slightly at their extreme base. Wings hyaline, « ith the areolet 

 slightly petiolate, emitting tlie recurrent nervure from its centre ; 

 teguloe testaceous ; stigma piceous.

UNITED Provinces : Mussoori, v. 05 {E. Bnmettl—lnd. Mus.). 



This species has been found extremely rarely, and has not 

 been recorded since Forster took it at Aachen, more than forty 

 years ago. Tet there is an undoubtedly synonymous c? in the 

 Calcutta Museum ; and with it was taken a specimen agreein"- 

 with the doubtfully distinct Campoplex anxius, Forst., also known 

 only from Aachen and in the male sex ; it agrees in every way 

 with 0. proximus except in its strongly petiolate areolet ; the size, 

 however, is slightly larger, and the abdomen, unfortunately, is 

 wanting.
