vein in he region of the cross-veitis ; the basal third of 3rd longi- 

 tudinal vein ; approximately the distal boundary of the discal 

 cell ; the distal half of the anterior branch of the 4th vein (after 

 quitting the discal cell) ; very narrowly along the 5th vein ; the 

 posterior margin of wing more or less from the tip of the 5th vein 

 to the wing-tip ; the base and tip of 7th vein, and, in a less 

 distinct manner, a spot or two about the wing-base. 



Length 10 millim. 



Described from a type male in the Indian Museum from Dar- 

 jiling 9. viii. 09 (Paiva), with a second from the same place, 

 5. viii. 09, and a third taken there by me, 22. ix. 08. 



L. fuschiervis would come in Osten Sacken's table of the 

 Oriental species of LUmotes (Berl. Ent. Zeits. xxxi, p. 182) next 

 to L. quadrifurca, Walk., from which it is distinguished by the 

 cross-vein in the submarginal ceh, and by the inner end of the 

 2ud posterior cell being much nearer the base of the wing than 

 that of the 3rd ; also the dark marks in the wings are confined 

 to the veins, showing no signs of forming rings, as in AValker's 

 species. 



300. Libnotes notatinervis, sp. nov. (PI. VIII, fig. 7.) 



$ . Head and frons mainly blackish brown ; eyes almost con- 

 tiguous, leaving a dark brownish yellow interval, facets small. 

 Antennae with only sparse short hairs. Neck rather bright reddish 

 yellow, a little darker here and there. Thorax with anterior 

 part of dorsum and two large oval spots behind the suture dark 

 brown, the spots separated by a rather wide yellowish white 

 depression, joined to the scutellum, which is uniformly of the 

 same colour. Sides dark yellowish brown ; metanotum shining, 

 very dark blackish brown. Abdomen brownish yellow, the jnajor 

 portion of each segment from the base blackish. Ovipositor dark 

 yellowish brown, witlj a little light pubescence, rather large. 

 Legs yellow; a subapical, rather narrow, distinct but not deep, 

 black ring on all the femora; tips of tarsi blackish. Wings: 

 venation as in L. notata, Wulp ; clear, costal cell yellowish ; veins 

 yellow, marked with pale grey round and oval spots, on which 

 spots the veins become black and in some cases lightly infuscated. 

 The more conspicuous of these spots are placed as follows : — at the 

 base of the praefurca ; a spot extending from the tip of the 

 auxiliary vein to the 2ud longitudinal vein ; a spot encircling the 

 tip of the 1st vein and the marginal cross-vein ; an oval spot at 

 the tip of the 2nd vein ; several, more or less united, along the basal 

 half of the 3rd vein, one in the anterior basal cell ; along the 

 hind margin of the 4th posterior cell ; the apical portion of the 

 5th vein and the distal half of the 7th vein. Along the rest of 

 the veins similar (possibly irregular) small grey spots are placed. 

 Halteres yellowish bro\\'n.
