to place generically. These four specimens (further specimens in spirit) 

 represent a conspicuous species with a very unusual venation, yet 

 undoubtedly allied to Limnophila, though no tibial spurs are 

 perceivable. The costa is broadly yellowish ; a narrow brownish-yellow 

 curved streak from fork of 2nd vein, embracing the discal cross vein 

 and reaching the hind margin of the wing. Another similar streak 

 from the fork of the 2nd vein, suffusing the anterior and posterior 

 cross veins. Body and legs practically wholly pale yellow. This 

 s^^ecies was found by Dr. Annandale dancing in a small swarm about 

 a foot and a half from the ground at dusk in a shady lane near Kyoto, 

 Japan, 6-X-15. There are several genera in Limnophilini that I am 

 unable to compare, the works in which they are described not beinr>- 

 accessible in India.
