all longer than wide ; the central is slightly narrowed towards the 

 base, and has a stout transverse keel near the middle ; the lateral is 

 widened at the base ; the apex is rounded and longer on the outer than 

 the inner side. Mesopleurae above the stoutly crenulated furrow 

 smooth ; below it closely punctured, as is also the sternum. Abdo- 

 men smooth, hardly so long as the thorax ; the ovipositor short. 



Kuching, Borneo. 



Allied to E. horneoensis, Szep., which may be known by the 

 black legs. The species is an exact mimic of Iphiaulax lepto- 

 pterus, Cam., also from Sarawak, 



^ Cremnops satapensis, sp. nov. 



Black ; covered with short black pubescence ; the four tibise dark 

 testaceous in front, their tarsi rufo-testaceous ; wings black to the base 

 of the stigma, milky-white beyond, the stigma, except at the base and 

 apical nervures, pale testaceous ; the areolet almost square ; the 

 second transverse, cubital nervure slightly rounded, narrowed behind. 



$ . Length 9 mm. ; ovipositor 7 mm. 



Satap, Borneo. September (John Hewitt). 



Malar space longer than the eyes. Palpi testaceous. Scutellar 

 depression deep, large, with three stout keels in the middle. The 

 central area of metanotum extends to the apex, is narrower than the 

 lateral, and has two keels above the middle ; its outer keels curve out- 

 wardly at the top ; there are two lateral arete, the upper wider and 

 longer than the apical. There is a curved row of fovefe on the base 

 of the mesopleurPB, commencing shortly above the middle ; the upper 

 long, narrow, shallow ; the two apical shorter, wider, and much 

 deeper, and they reach to the apex, which is bounded by a widely 

 crenulated furrow. Abdomen smooth ; the second segment with a 

 distinct curved, transverse furrow beyond the middle ; the basal ventral 

 segment is for the greater part white. 



This species has the coloration of Tphiaulax p/iHvs, Cam., 

 also from Kuching. Along with it Mr. Hewitt sends a Dipteron 

 of exactly the same coloration and size.
