OF INSULINDE. 35 
of the head are narrower and those of the thorax are 
larger and rather stripe-like. Basal third of the underside 
of the antennae pale yellowish. 
Body 31—35 mm., forew. 35—371/, mm., hindw. 37—39 mm, ant. 71/,—8 mm. 
Abd. 283—27 mm., gr. br. 10—101/, mm., gr. br. 8—8!/, mm. 
Habitat: Celebes. 
I examined two males, one from Gorontalo, the other 
from Panybie, both collected by von Rosenberg. 
Myrmeleon sagax papuensis, nov. subsp. 
Nearest to celebensis, but with still broader wings. Face 
and vertex black, the markings very indistinct. Pronotum 
with the median line only developed in the anterior part and 
two oblique yellow pointlike lines on each side of the disk. 
‘Two thirds of the underside of the antennae yellow. 
Body 35 mm., forew. 37—39 mm., hindw. 38!/,—41 mm., ant. 71/,—8 mm. 
Abd. 27 mm., gr. br. 10!/,—1]1 mm, gr. br. 9—91/, mm. 
Habitat: New Guinea. 
One incomplete male from Dutch New Guinea, collected 
by Dr. Bernstein, and a female from German New Guinea, 
Astrolabe bay, Stephansort, collected by Kunzmann in 
1894, from the collection Neervoort van de Poll (coll. 
v. d. Weele). 
No doubt this species also occurs in Java. I saw very 
incomplete specimens, collected according to the labels by 
Dr. S. Müller in that island, which are very near to 
papuensis and probably from New Guinea, as I found in 
the collection of Lepidoptera that his captures from Java 
and New Guinea have been mixed and wrongly labelled. 
I also saw debris of a specimen collected by Dr. J. 
Biittikofer in Borneo, and there is in the collection a very 
immature incomplete specimen from Ceram, collected by 
Ludeking, which is near to papuensis but different. It is 
however too bad for description. 
Nothing is known about the biology and development of 
this species.
