igii.] E. Brunetti : New Oriental Nemocera. 295 



Body clothed with thick blackish brown hair, with which is 

 intermixed on the thorax, some fan-shaped tufts of whitish 

 grey hair. White bristly, almost scale-like, hair on vertex and 

 bristly black hair on frons and face. Antennae with very elongate 

 flask-shaped joints, verticillate as in P. bengalensis ; scape with 

 milk-white elongate scales; chaetae present on flagellum, but 

 small, curved, not S-shaped ; pubescence of flagellum greyish white. 



Legs with light brown scales and some bristly hairs. Knees 

 narrowly but distinctly white, through the presence of a few snow- 

 white small elongate scales. Tips of tibiae and of the metatarsi 

 with a circlet of small elongate snow-white scales. Front meta- 

 tarsi almost wholly white scaled. Some pale stiff bristles on the 

 legs but apparently no actual isolated elongate scales as in albo- 

 nigra. 



Wings with hairs situated on the veins only, rich brown in 

 colour, showing golden brown with violet iridescence in certain 

 lights. No surface scales on the wings, the only ones present being 

 the small ones forming the spots at the tips of the veins. Black 

 bristly hair-spots at tips of practically all the veins ; some white 

 scaly hair-spots near tips of some of the veins, and a few on each 

 of the two lower branches of the 2nd longitudinal vein and both 

 branches of the 4th vein, all placed at a little before their tips. A 

 larger white scaly hair-spot near the base of the costa, and some 

 isolated erect white hairs placed irregularly here and there on the 

 veins. The 2nd longitudinal vein forks immediately distad of the 

 base of the 3rd vein, the upper branch of the former forking barely 

 beyond the middle of the wing, and very little distad of the fork 

 of the 4th vein. 



Described from one $ in the Indian Museum from Pera- 

 deniya, Ceylon, taken by Mr. E. E. Green in October 1910. 



It is in perfect condition and is a distinctly good species. 



Psychoda albonigra, mihi. 



To the description of this species may be added, "knees with 

 a very few small white scales ; tips of the metatarsi with a circlet 

 of white scales." 



The type still remains the only known specimen. 



Psychoda bengalensis, mihi. 



In the figure of the wing of this species, no auxiliary vein is 

 shown, although it is, of course, distinctly present, extending at 

 least to a point beyond the fork of the 2nd longitudinal vein.
