Notogonia varipilosa, n. s. 



Nigra, tliorace pallide fiilvo pilosa, metatliorace alutaceo ; alls 

 liyalinis, apice fumatis ^. 

 Long. 7 mm. 



Hah. Barrackpore (liofhnnj). 



Antenna^ stout, longisli ; the scape densely covered witli silvery 

 pubescence. Front and face densely co\ered with silvery p)nl>es- 

 cence ; the vertex alutaceous, the ocellus triangularly produced in 

 front, roundeil l)ehind. 



The apices of the mandibles are rufous, the base thickly covered 

 with silvery pubescence. Palpi dark testaceous. The upper side of 

 the thorax is thickly covered with dark, somewliat fulvous, pubes- 

 cence ; the pubescence on the pleurte is longer, brighter, and more 

 silvery in tint. Tlie pubescence is thicker on the median segment, 

 which is alutaceous, and is only indistinctly striated near the apex ; 

 its apical furrow is ilistinct, narrow, of equal width throughout, and 

 extends from the base to the apex. The sternal process is broad ; 

 the lateral keels are stout ; there is none in the centre ; the apical 

 incision is narrow, twice longer than broad, of equal width through- 

 out, and rounded at the base. Legs thickly pruinose ; the spines 

 black. Wings hyaline, the apex slightly, but distinctly, smoky ; 

 the two cubital cellules are equal in length above ; the upper part 

 of the first transverse cubital nervure has a more sharply oblique 

 slope than the lower part ; the second recurrent nervure is 

 received, if anything, behind the middle of the cellule. The apices 

 of the abdominal segments are broadly covered with silvery pile. 



Notogonia fu&cistigma, n. s. 



Nigra, thorace supra dense fulvo pilosa; alis fere liyalinis, stigmate 

 fusco, nervis nigris, cellula cubitali 2''^longiore c[uam 1'*^ $ . 

 Long. 7 mm. 



Hah. Barrackpore {Rothney). 



Comes near to N. vari])ilosa, with wliich it agrees in tlie 

 colour of the pubescence, hut the latter is stouter built, 

 and has the first cubital cellule as h^ng as the second, 

 whereas in the present species it is perceptibly shorter. 



Front and vertex alutaceous ; the ocellus is triangularly produced 

 in front ; the clypens is distinctly punctured ; the pile on the lower 

 part of the front has a slight golden tint. Mamlildes at thi- base
