Antennae not mucli longer than the abdomen, distinctly tapering 

 towards tbe apex, the flagellum densely pilose, the apical joints 

 serrate ; black, brownish beneath ; the scape beneath, the 2nd and 

 tbe 7tli to 14th joints white. Face and clypeus strongly and closely 

 punctured, and thickly covered with short white pubescence ; in 

 the centre of the face is a line which is irregularly dilated in the 

 middle ; the front and vertex are strongly punctured ; the outer 

 orbits are less strongly and more closely punctured. Palpi pale 

 testaceous. Mesonotum closely punctured and thickly covered with 

 short silvery pubescence ; the scutellum is not so closely punctured 

 as the mesonotum, and is thickly covered with white pubescence ; 

 its apex is distinctly narrowed. Median segment closely rugosely 

 pi;nctured ; the sides at the apex obliquely reticulated, more closely 

 behind than below. Pleuroe closely and distinctly punctured, as is 

 also the breast, which is deeply furrowed down the middle. Post- 

 petiole closely longitudinally striated ; the 2nd to 4th segments 

 closely punctured ; the gastroc(jeli stoutly striated. 



Ancyra, gen. nov. 

 Areolet large, not much narrowed above, 5-angled. Clypeus not 

 separated from the face, its apex transverse. Labrum projecting. 

 Mandibles bidentate, the upper tooth not much longer than the 

 lower. Scutellum roundly convex, its base and apex with an oblique 

 slope. Median segment regularly areolated ; the areola about twice 

 longer than broad, transverse at the apex, the sides slightly angularly 

 produced in the middle. Metathoracic spiracles linear. Legs longish, 

 not very stout ; the tarsi spinose. Abdomen longish, with seven seg- 

 ments, the last large ; the ventral fold on the 2nd and 3rd segments 

 only. Antennae short, not much longer than the abdomen, the 

 joints serrate beyond the middle ; the apex distinctly narrowed. 

 Eyes large, parallel, their lower part reaching below the clypeal 

 fovea;. 



The stump of a nervure on the outer-sLle of the 

 recurrent nervure is longer than usual ; there is none on 

 the disco-cubital ; the transverse basal nervure is inter- 

 stitial. May be known by the large, wide areolet, by the 

 long, slender legs, by the large eyes which reach close to 

 the base of the mandibles, by the pyramidal scutellum 

 and by the long abdomen.
