 Mus. coll.)

 p. 197 (1900). 



Material. Two adult males and many females from Sibsagar, 

 Assam (Peal coll.). Three males from Aideo (Peal coll.) and a 

 female from Goalpara, Assam. A male and two females from 

 Punkabaree, Sikhim. 



Var. masoni, Poc, 



Material. A male and a female from Silcuri, Cachar. Five 

 females (the types) from Sylhet, Assam, 



Remarks. Both the male and female of Chilobrachys masoni, 

 Poc, are very closely allied to C. stridulans, Wood-Mason, and onh^ 

 seem to differ in the broader and more conspicuous bands of white 

 at the apices of the tibiae, patellae, etc., of the limbs. Whilst these 

 bands of white are clearly visible in the females of stridulans from 

 Sibsagar, they are less conspicuous in the males accompanying 

 them. I think that it would be best to regard C. masoni as a colour 

 variety of C. stridulans.
