2 N. Bengal. Long. 3 mm. 
Head.—Pale lemon yellow, face with a shining brown median 
stripe from antennae to mouth border. Occiput black, the colour 
encroaching narrowly on the vertex. Frons with a very large sub- 
quadrate blackish brown, moderately shining spot, which occupies 
~ nearly all the surface, not contiguous to the eyes, but extending 
downwards to the root of the antennae; this square spot joined 
to the vertex by a short, broad stripe embracing the ocelli. Eves 
sparsely and microscopically hairy. Antennae brownish yellow, 
upper side a little brownish, arista bare. 
Thorax.—Shining black, with short yellowish grey pubes- 
cence; side margins and posterior margin of dorsum narrowly pale 
yellow. Shoulders with a yellow callus, and there is an elongate 
perpendicular yellow spot on the mesopleura, just before the 
wing and united to the yellow margin of the thorax. Scutellum 
shining black, with two long bristles on each side of margin near 
the base and a pair of similar, widely separated apical ones. 
Abdomen.—Bright yellow, 2nd segment with a broad black 
band on posterior border, widest in the middle, where it extends 
nearly to the base of the short and very narrow Ist segment. 
A similar band on 3rd segment, rest of abdomen black. Belly 
yellow, with a few blackish marks. 
Legs.—Wholly yellow, except the hind coxae rather obscure, 
a broad dark brown band on hind femora leaving the knees 
narrowly pale, and hind tibiae blackish brown, with base and 
tips narrowly yellow. 
Wings.—Very pale grey. A brownish very short stripe from 
tip of auxiliary vein to 2nd longitudinal vein, a second stripe 
from tip of Ist vein to (and indistinctly including) the upturned 
end of lower branch of 4th vein, and a 3rd stripe from tip of 2nd 
vein to, and including, the upturned end of upper branch of 4th 
vein; all these stripes being narrow and indistinct yet perfectly 
obvious. The closed anal cell very slightly infuscated at tip. 
Halteres brownish yellow.
