 less than one-third of the breadth of the thorax, with a spine on each side 

 between the eye and the antenna ; part in front of the eyes a little shorter 

 than that behind them ; lateral lobes extending somewhat beyond the 

 middle one. Eyes prominent. Rostrum tawny, extending to the hind 

 co.xae. Antenna? minutely pubescent, more than half the length of the body ; 

 second joint as long as the first, about one-lhird of the length of the third ; 

 fourth much shnrler than the third : fifth a little shorter than the third. 

 Thorax smoother towards the fore border ; fore angles acute, not promi- 

 nent ; hind angles rounded. Sculellum not extending so far as the coriura 

 of the fore wings. Le;js rather stout, minutely pubescent ; coxa' and femora 

 tawny, the latter with niiinerons black dots; tarsi tawny. Fore wings 

 minutely punctured, with a wiiitis-h point in the middle of the coriura ; 

 membrane brown. Length of the body 5^ lines. 



It seems to connect Ochlerus with Macropygium, and may be distin- 

 guished from O. tartareus by the shorter rostrum and by the lobes of the 

 head, which are of equal length in O. tartareus.
