FJumomeris diilins, sp. iiov. (PI. XVIII, f. 59.) 



2 . Reddish-yellow, tlie apex of the mandibles, the eyes, the 

 antennae, a triangular spot enclosing the ocelli, and the ovipositor 

 black, the posterior tibiie shaded with fuscous black ; wings hyaline 

 yellow shaded as follows, fore-wing the stigma jet black, a spot at the 

 apex of the median cell, spreading across the nervure into the 1st 

 discoidul cell, a spot at the base of the 2nd discoidal cell, a Ijar 

 interrupted below crossing the disc of the wing below the stigma, 

 and the apical margin of the wing fuscous ; hind-wing, a spot beyond 

 the transverse nervure closing the median cell, and the apical margin 

 of the wing broadly, fuscous. Head cubical, the front above th<>. 

 antennaj, the vertex, occiput and cheeks smooth and shining, head 

 in front below the antennas closely and somewhat coarsely punctured 

 rugose. Thorax not broader than the head coarsely but sparingly 

 punctured, the mesonotum gibbous, the parapsidal grooves deep, the 

 scutellum compressed smooth, legs moderately long with the femora 

 and tibia3 incrassate ; median segment finely and closely punctured 

 rounded above, and bearing a delicate median longitudinal carina. 

 Abdomen longer than the head and thorax united, elongate oval, the 

 basal two segments finely striate above, the disc of the 2nd segment 

 raised, the raised portion semicircular, the depression on either side 

 of the raised portion above smooth, the suturiform articulation 

 distinct, crenate, the apical segments smooth and shining with 

 transverse impressions at their bases, these latter crenulate. Ovi- 

 positor longer than the head and body, the sheath densely pubescent.

Hah. Salisbury, 5000 feet, Mashonaland, South Africa 

 {G. A. K. Marshall). 



It is with much doubt that I record this species under 

 Forster's genus Phanomeris. It has the appearance of a 

 Vipio, but there are no tufts of hair at the base of the 

 clypeus, the submedian cell in the fore-wing is longer than 

 the median cell, and in the hind-wing the submedian cell 

 is about e([ual to half the length of the median cell.
