and with a transverse carina from its lateral margin to near inner 
margin of eye; posterior orbits rather narrow, with a strong, well 
defined carina: antennae slender, the third joint distinctly longer 
than the fourth; pedicellum subequal in length with the scape, 
much longer than wide; basal vein curved, joining the subcosta 
well basad to the origin of the cubitus, somewhat divergent with 
the first recurrent; nervulus at about middle of cell; costa 
enlarged apically; lanceolate cell with a nearly straight cross- 
vein; hind wings with two discal cells and a petiolate anal cell; 
claws cleft, inner tooth shorter; hind basitarsus subequal with 
following joints. 
This genus, which belongs to the Selandriinae, is very closely 
related to Anapeptamena, Konow, but may be distinguished by 
the presence of a cross-vein in the lanceolate cell. 
Busarbidea himalaiensis, sp.n. 
Female.---Length 5 mm. Anterior margin of the clypeus 
depressed, rather deeply arcuately emarginate, basal portion 
convex; supraclypeal area uniformly convex; supraclypeal foveae 
deep, punctiform; middle fovea nearly quadrate in outline, not 
sharply separated from the pentagonal area; pentagonal area 
broader on its ventral margin than the dorsad-ventrad length; 
from its dorsal margin is a short rather poorly defined carina 
which extends posteriorly one-third the length of the postocellar 
area ; postocellar area sharply defined laterally narrowing anteri- 
otly; posterior margin subequal with the median cephla-caudad 
length; postocellar line one-fifth shorter than the ocellocular line; 
antennae distinctly compressed beyond the fifth joint; fourth and 
fifth joints subequal; the third slightly longer than the fourth; 
head and thorax shining, impunctate; stigma evenly rounded 
below; second cubital cell shorter on both radius and cubitus 
than the third; transverse radius strongly curved, received at the 
apical third; third transverse cubitus twice as long as the second ; 
sheath robust, straight above, obtuse apically, oblique beneath. 
Black; clypeus, labrum, palpi, first two joints of the flagellum, 
tegulae, posterior angles of the pronotum, legs yellowish; wings 
hyaline, faintly dusky; venation dark brown; head and thorax 
with short black hair. 
Male—Length 4 mm. Differs from the description of the 
female in having the body markings piceous; hypopygidium trun- 
cate apically, the angles rounded. 
East Himalayas. Described from one female (type) collected 
at Siliguri, April 18-20, 1907, by a Museum collector, and from 
one male (allotype), and dne female (paratype) from Kurseong, at 
an altitude of 5,000 feet.
