igiQ-] F. C. Fraser : New Indian Odonata. 455 



on the same segments, broadest apically and becoming obsolete 

 basally. On the 2nd segment this streak joins up with the black 

 on the dorsum basally, and on the 7th similary but apicall}^ 

 Blue annules follow the ist, 7th, 8th and gth segments. No spine 

 on the ventral surface of segment 8. 



Wings : postnodals 6 ; arc distal to the 2nd antenodal; ac falls 

 on to ab about midway between the two antenodals ; stigma light 

 brown, covers half a cell. 



Length of abdomen 15 mm. Length of hind-wing 10 mm. 



The specimen bears a slight resemblance to A. splendidissima, 

 Laidlaw, but the insect is a more robust species. The lateral 

 abdominal spots are not connected up with the dorsal black, except 

 on the 7th segment, and lastly the head markings are quite 

 different.
