distinctly present. The tips of the tibiae and of the metatarsi 

 with a narrow circlet of white scales ; the legs moderately dark 

 brown.

 at Pusa, Bengal, 8-i-o8. 



Psychoda nigripennis, mihi. 



Several specimens recentl}' acquired by the Indian Museum 

 through the generosity of Mr. C. W. Beebe, are in all probability 

 this species, taken b}' that gentleman ten miles south of Kuching, 

 Sarawak, Borneo, 25-vi-io. 



Being mounted on microscopic slides their absolute identifi- 

 cation is impossible, in the absence of any previous examination.

Psychoda fulvohirta, mihi, sp. nov. 



$ . Darjiling district. Long, i^ mm. 



Body covered with blackish grey hair, with the exception of 

 the thorax where the hair is conspicuously bright yellowish brown, 

 that of the alulae being more yellow. Antennae as in iiigripennis. 

 Legs blackish, without any ornamentation. 



Wings with the appearance of tho.se of nigripennis. The 2nd 

 longitudinal vein forks distinctly distad of the base of the 3rd 

 vein, and its anterior branch forks a little beyond the middle of 

 the wing very considerably beyond the fork of the 4th \-ein, which 

 occurs towards its base. The 3rd vein is gently bisinuate. 



The hairs on the wings are blackish grej^, those towards the 

 base being blacker, and those of the ])osterior marginal fringe 

 somewhat greyish. 



Described from two 9 9 from Darjiling (7,000 ft.), 7-viii-09, 

 type [Paiva]\ and Kurseong, 26-vi-io \ Annandale] \ both in the 

 Indian Museum. 



N.B. — The bright yellowish l^rown colour of the hair on the 

 thorax makes this species easily distinguishable from all others 

 except those specimens of margininotata with similarly coloured 

 hair, but from that species the wholly unmarked wing and un- 

 ornamented tarsi will readily separate il.
