Elis ifis, Lepel. 



Three cf cf and two 9 9 of this widely spread species, from 

 various localities. 



Elis annulata, Fab. 



A specimen of each sex. This species is common and extends 

 almost throughout the Oriental Region. 



CEROPALIDAE [POMPILIDAE). 

 Macromeris honesta, Smith. 



One 9 from Upper Rotung, 2i-i-i2. 



This species, which was described by Smith as a Pompilus, 

 and is included by Bingham in the genus Pseudagenia, is un- 

 doubtedly a Macromeris. The specimen is quite typical, and differs 

 in no way from others in the B. M. and my own collection. The 

 generic character must have been overlooked by Bingham, but 

 is quite obvious. 



Pseudagenia tincta, vSmith. 

 A 9 from Dibrugarh, 17-ig-xi-ii. 



Salius praestabilis, Bingh. 

 One 9 from Sadiya, 23-xi-ii. 



Pompilus, spp. 



There are four specimens from different localities, belonging 

 to probably three different species. Two of them are in indifferent 

 condition. I cannot identify with certainty either of the others, 

 as this genus badly requires revision. The largest specimen from 

 Kobo (3-xii-ii) is very probably un described. 



SPHEGIDAE, 

 Tachysphex, sp. inc. 

 One 9 from Kol)o, 400ft., 6-xii-ii. 



Notogonia, sp. inc. 



One 9 from Janakmukh, 6ooft., 17-xii-ii. 



Neither of the above are in sufficiently good condition for 

 accurate determination. 



Liris aurata, Fab. 



Two 5 9 ; one Sadiya, 23-xi-ir, and 6ne Kobo, 400ft., 9-xii-ii. 



There is an error in Bingham's description of this species in 

 Vol- I — H^^menoptera. He says ''median segment long, as long 

 as the rest of the thorax and head united." This should read
