DESCRIPTIONS OF TWO SPECII*:S OF EVANIA.

roboris, Linn., was swept by Mr. Elliott and me in Parkhurst 

 Forest and the Haven Street Woods, in the Isle of Wight, in 

 June, beneath oaks in 1907 ; it is a beautiful insect, with black 

 wings bearing an interrupted oblique apical line, a central band 

 extending transversely across the disc, and the whole basal area, 

 transparent ; the apterous form occurred with it. 



Of the Schizoneurinae, Scliizoneura lanigera, Hausm., is only 

 too common here and at Brandon, in North-west Suffolk, on the 

 bark of Pyras malus ; I have, however, seen none winged. 

 Apterous S. fuliginosa, Buck., are equally abundant in downy 

 masses, one behind the other, on the pinnules of Pinus sj/lvestris, 

 last August ; the earliest winged ones were seen on the 22nd. 

 At the end of June, 1907, I took S. idmi, Linn,, in all its forms 

 in rolled and blighted leaves of elm in Mr. Morey's paddock at 

 Newport, Isle of Wight, though a diligent search has failed to 

 reveal it here. Perhaps the ubiquitous S. corni, Fabr., was the 

 species said by Kirby to have occurred in incredible numbers in 

 Ipswich in 1814 ; it is, at all events, often abundant there at 

 Wherstead (October 29th, 1903), and Barren Heath (September 

 15th, 1904) ; the first one last year was noticed on August 22nd, 

 and it occurred at Keydon, Suffolk, in September. I have seen 

 no apterous forms, nor have I observed it upon Cornus sanguinea. 

 I hope to do more with the three remaining small subfamilies 

 anon. At present I can only mention Chenues laricis, Htg., of 

 which I found eggs, larvsB, and winged females abundantly on 

 young Pinus larix, together with a large dead oviparous female 

 and a Coccinellid larva, at Foxhall Plateau at the end of May, 

 1907 ; it also is common on old larches in my garden here. Of 

 the rest, I believe that the apterous pale Aphid taken by 

 Mr. Chitty and me at Brandon, in the nest of Tetramorium 

 C(sspitum early in May last year, is Foi'da forinicaria, Heyd.

DESCRIPTIONS OF TWO SPECIES OF EVANIA FROM 



BORNEO. 



By p. Cameron. 



Evania kuchingensU, sp. nov. 

 Entirely black ; the wings calmest hyaline, the nervures black, the 

 head, pro- and mesothorax covered with silvery pubescence. Face 

 closely, finely, distinctly punctured, the front and vertex shining, 

 finely punctured, but not so closely as the face ; there is a shallow 

 furrow outside the raised inner orbits. Eyes with a distinct greenish 

 colour, very slightly converging above; the malar space long, half 

 their length. Ocelh in a curve, the hinder separated from each other
