OF INSULINDE. 83 
Apochrysa aurifera (Walker). 
(Plate 5, fig. 35). 
Chrysopa aurifera Walker, Cat. Brit. Mus. Neur. p. 272, n°. 79 (1853). Ceylon. 
Hagen, Syn. Neur. Ceylon, I, p. 483, n°. 73 (1858). 
Apochrysa aurifera Mac Lachlan, Journ. Entom. II, p. 114 (1866); Journ. 
Linn. Soc. Zool. IX, p. 270 (1867). 
Antennae pale green. Body yellowish green, with purple 
on the head. 
Wings hyaline, with yellow nervature and pale greenish 
iridescence. The continuous series of gradate veins, that 
connects the united cubiti with the united subcosta and 
radius, black. The following inner row may also be darkened 
in the apical part of the forewing and form a dark spot, 
but this is only constant for the subspecies. The following, 
more inner row, has a round black spot about the middle 
of the wing, which spot is constant. The hindwings are 
narrower in the basal part, the dark spots are absent, the 
connecting gradate veins however are black, 
Habitat: Ceylon, Celebes, Ceram and New Guinea. 
It is of no interest to describe the ceylonese species here, 
as it does not belong to the fauna of Insulinde. The following 
subspecies of it are known: 
Apochrysa aurifera albardae Mac Lachlan. 
(Plate 5, fig. 35), 
Apochrysa albardae Mac Lachlan, Tijdschr. v. Ent. 18, p. 3, t. I, f.5—7 
(1875). Celebes. 
This is a very large form and distinct from coccinea and 
phantoma by the two dark markings of the forewing, the 
second of which is much smaller, and situated near the 
apex as an enlarged blackish suffusion of the gradate veins. 
I saw however a specimen in which it is absent in one 
wing, being only indicated by the fuscous gradate veins.
