A $ of this widely distributed species taken by Dr. Annandale at 

 Otsu, near Kyoto, Japan, x-15. Also recorded recently from Kotoslio 

 I,, Formosa, 5-viii-r2 {Shiraki). 



CLADURA, Os. Sac. 



My C. flavescens is almost certainly a Cladura in Osten Sacken's sense, 

 agreeing with his description and with Needham's figure of the wing, 

 so I think Alexander is in error in claiming that my species is generic- 

 ally wrongly placed. 



Cladura interrupta, sp. no v. 



$. Darjiling. Long. 3| — 4 mm. 



Head yellowish-grey ; antennal scape and base of flagellum yellow, 

 remainder blackish. 



Thorax brownish-yellow. 



Abdomen very dark brown with short pubescence ; ovipositor long, 

 brownish-yellow towards tip. 



Legs wholly pale yellow, distinctly pubescent throughout ; coxae 

 black. 



Wings yellowish-grey with numerous black spots, of which the 

 deepest is over the stigma, nearly oblong in shape, emarginate on hinder 

 side ; a minute well defined costal spot near the base. Three narrow, 

 transversely placed costal spots nearly equidistant, extending posteriorly 

 to (1) hind margin of 2nd basal cell, (2) hind margin of 1st basal cell, 

 and (3) to the anterior cross vein. A good sized spot at tip of upper 

 branch of 2nd vein, more or less connected with round spots in the 2nd 

 submarginal and 1st posterior cells, and with another at the fork of the 

 upper branch of the 4th vein, and one at the tip of the 3rd posterior cell, 

 forming altogether a slightly bent band across the wing. A spot at tip 

 of lower branch of 2nd vein and one at tip of all the 4th vein endings, 

 at tips of 5th, 6th and 7th veins, and over inner and outer sides of discal 

 cell. Ground colour of wing slightly darker grey over basal half or 

 thereabouts of both basal cells and of the anal and axillary cells. 

 Halteres dirty yellowish. The 1st submarginal cell is divided a little 

 beyond the middle by a supernumerary cross vein. 



Described from two $ $ in the Indian Museum from Pashok, 3,500 

 ft,, 26-v— 14vi-16 {Gravely).
