86 MECOPTERA AND PLANIPENNIA 
Apochrysa nicobarica Brauer. 
Apochrysa nicobarica Brauer, Novara Exp. Zool. I, Neur. p. 32 (1865). 
Jellnschong (Nicobar Islands). 
This species appears to be distinct from aurifera and its 
subspecies, as there are also two dark points on the 
hindwings. I have not seen it. Probably it also occurs 
in Sumatra. 
Body 17 mm, forew. 26 mm., hindw. 27 mm., ant. 30 mm. 
gr. br. 12 mm, gr. br. 9 mm. 
Habitat: Jellnschong, Nicobar Islands. 
The type is in the Vienna Museum. 
Nemopteridae. 
This particular family, which is tropical or subtropical, 
is not yet recorded from Insulinde, but no doubt it will 
be discovered there because several species are known from 
Australia and India. 
Himantopterus fuscinervis, described from Java by Wesmael 
and recorded by Hagen (1866) as belonging to this family, 
has since longtime been referred to the Lepidoptera. 
Coniopterygidae. 
This family of minute insects has been recently studied 
and monographed by Dr. G. Enderlein at Stettin. The species 
that occur in Insulinde are: 
Coniopteryx javana Enderlein, Notes Leyd. Mus. XXVIII, 
p. 224 (1907) Java. 
Coniopteryx birói Enderlein, Zool. Jahrb. XXIII, p. 203 
(1906). German New Guinea. 
Coniocampsa vesiculigera Enderlein, 1. ce. p. 224, figs. 27, 
43, 47—51 (1906). Malacca. 
No doubt many species are to be discovered in this inte- 
resting group of minute insects. 
Mantispidae. 
The characteristic anterior legs of this family distinguish 
them immediately from the other families and give them
