100. Macropes excavatus, Dist. 



Piisa. — All months. 



Recorded from Shillong. 



We have a very long series from Pusa, which may or may not 

 be one species. Allowing for newly transformed individuals, which 

 are brown, for the varying shrinkage of the abdomen according to 

 the chitin being less or more hardened with the duration of time 

 from the last ecdysis, and for variation, it is very hard to place a 

 long series in any one species. At all events most of ours agree 

 with this species but others, e.g., M. dilutus. may also occur.
