Diacrisia ohliqua, AVlk. Paiva took a female of this species, Avithi 

 Tarytia Jlavo-orhiialis, ou board-ship, ten miles off Coconada on 

 the Madras coast, on 14th April 1908.

 Genotype, T. hasimacula. Cam. 



Clypeus distinctly discrete from the face and apically broadly 

 rounded ; mandibles with the teeth large, divergent and of equal 

 length ; cheeks distinct and not sulcate ; eyes nude, internally 

 parallel and not emarginate. Antennae exactly filiform and of 

 normal lengtli. Notauli sometimes present ; metathorax not at all 

 rugose, apically subproduced beyond base of hindcoxce; metanotnm 

 irregularly and \Aeakly areated centrally ; spiracles small and very 

 shortly oval. Abdomen distinctly petiolate, with the spiracles far 

 beyond centre of the basal segment, which is longer than the 

 second, with the postpetiole distinctly nodose ; ovipositor distinctly 

 exserted, but not elongate, with filiform valvulir. Intermediate 

 tibia> bicalcarate ; hind calcaria nearly as long as the second tarsal 

 joint; femora not dentate; tarsi normal, not at all spatuliform, 

 \\\t\\ simple and not pectinate claws ; basal joint of hind ones 

 nearly as long as the following three united ; hind coxae stout,. 

 two and a half times as long as broad. Stigma not broad nor 

 radial cell short ; areolet entirely wanting ; second recurrent 

 nervure distinct and fenestrate above its centre, emitted at or 

 beyond the submarginal ; basal nervure continuous ; parallel 

 nervure intercepted shortly above its centre ; hind wings with the- 

 nervellus neither intercepted nor geniculate, and all the nervures- 

 apically pellucid. 



Range. India. 



This genus does not bear the remotest relationship to Agnjpon^ 

 with which Cameron compares it ; I have not seen Szepligeti's 

 arrangement, to Avhich he refers, but its whole facies is entirely 

 Cremastid. An examination of the whole of the type specimens- 

 has enabled me to draw up the following table of species, though 

 it is possible that in some instances the two sexes have been 

 described as distinct species since, with a single exception, all the 

 species have been founded on single specimens.
