 (Plate XV, figs. 9, 9(? and 96.) 



Two males from Arboricola ruflgularis (Jorpokri, East 

 Himalayas). A quite distinct form with large head and small 

 thorax. 



Description of male : Colour yellowish brown, head and tho-

 dark red-brown markings on head and thorax and lighter 

 lateral abdominal bands. 



Head as broad as long, somewhat octagonal with prominent 

 clypeus, flattened in front and on the sides and produced back 

 under the antennae into a well developed hook, or trabecula- 

 like process on each side (plate xv, fig. 96) ; these processes 

 are visible from above, showing through the first antennal seg-

 tennal blotches which reach inward and backward to the 

 mandibles, the latter being set well back of the antennae and 

 indistinctly visible ; six inconspicuous dorsal and marginal hairs 

 on each side of the clypeus, with several others on the ven-

 broad, without appendage and set into deep emarginations of 

 the head ; second segment about as long as the first is broad, 

 and the third shorter with an appendage given off at almost 

 right angles to the segment; last two segments together, of 

 which the last is the longer, not quite as long as the second ; 

 colour of antennae about the same as that of the head. Eye

 put ; occipital band and rounded blotches prominent. 



Thorax small, a little narrower and but little over half as long 

 as the head. Prothorax very short and narrow, being almost 

 entirely included between the two posterior points of the head; 

 lateral margin with one hair. Metathorax quadrangular, short, 

 not half as long as broad, with parallel sides bearing three hairs on
