tip. The branches of the forceps are nearly straight and 
have a broad obtuse dent at the base. The tips are 
slightly curved and crossing one another. 
Body of 13 mm, forew. 12/, mm., hindw. 11 mm. 
gr. br. 3 mm., gr. br. 2!/, mm. 
Habitat: Java. 
Westwood's description is made after a female. I examined 
one © from Western Java, Preanger, collected by the 
well-known lepidopterist Mr. M. C. Piepers. 
Panorpa javanica Westwood. 
Panorpa javanica Westwood, Transact. Ent. Soc. Lond. (2) I, 
p. 5 (1852). Java. 
This species is nearly related to angustipennis Westw. 
and of the same size. The differences are: a broad black 
erossband before the middle of the wing, a black point at 
the anterior border in the middle, a very broad sr-shaped 
pterostigmatical patch, which is connected at the anterior 
border with the broad apical patch. The latter is bordered 
towards the base by a straight line. 
The abdomen of the male is very long and slender. 
Habitat: Java and Sumatra. 
In the British Museum I saw in 1906 specimens from 
both islands. 
Panorpa miilleri, n. sp. 
Very similar and nearly related to P. angustipennis 
Westw., but differing from it in the following points: 
The pterostigmatical fascia about half so narrow. The 
apical spot is considerably smaller and only narrowly con- 
nected with the pterostigma along the foreborder. In the 
hindwing it is nearly wholly separated from it. The distal 
prominency of it in angustipennis is only indicated by a 
right angle. The rest of the wing is hyaline. 
Body, legs etc. as in angustipennis. 
The gonopoda of the ©’ differ in the following points:
