gently, roundedly emarginate). The juga are scarcely longer than 

 the tylus, which is not acuminate anteriorly (as in Distant's 

 figure). D. Kershawi agrées in color and pattern fairly with D. indiens, 

 but theground colour is brownish-testaceousand the labium extends 

 beyond the hind coxaî (the latter upsetting one of Distant's generic 

 characters).

Demi rites (Cat. Hem. I.) has the characters of Dalpada except 

 that the head is not so prominently spined laterally; and the buc- 

 culae are much shorter. Probably some of the species of Dalpada 

 belong to this. 



D. Kershawi (Cat. Hem. I). 



Pale brownish-yellow, the whole upper surface very closely 

 punctured with blackish, this colouring also largely suffusing. 

 Antennse black, the articulations and the basai part of the first 

 segment yellowish. Underside yellowish, sparingly marked with 

 black. Membrane sordid vitreous, veins dark. Fourth segment of 

 labium and the central line, blackish. Ocelli red. Femora brownish- 

 yellow, apices black; tibise black, central third brownish-yellow. 

 Pleurites yellowish, the anterior and basai margins black (the 

 middle part of the tergo-pleurites darkly punctured). Underneath 

 sparsely punctured laterally. Bucculse nearly rectangular apically, 

 reaching only about to three-fourths of the length of the head; 

 first. segment of the labium very slightly longer, not nearly 

 reaching to the base of the head, second extending just beyond 

 fore coxae, third to apex of middle coxœ, fourth just beyond hind 

 coxœ. First segment of antennœ extending just beyond the apex of
