Labial palpi very small; two basal joints rather elongate and 
flattened; third about as long as the others united. Mesothorax 
short and robust. Anterior wings narrow at the-base, rather 
dilated towards the elliptical apex; hairy clothing short and dense; 
no transverse vein uniting the costa and subcosta near the middle; 
discoidal cell elongate, closed, a transverse vein unites the upper 
margin with the radius, another unites the lower margin with the 
cellula thyridii, another closes this cell, and a fourth unites the 
base of this with the inferior branch of the ramus thyrifer; forks 
1, 2, 38, 4 and 5 all present. Posterior wings folded, shorter and 
broader than the anterior ; costal margin nearly straight ; discoidal 
cell closed, two transverse veins below it; forks 1, 2, 3 and 5 all 
present. Legs rather long; intermediate tibize and tarsi slightly 
dilated in the female; auterior tibize with one very short median 
and two longer apical spurs ; intermediate and posterior tibize each 
with two pairs of long and unequal spurs. Abdomen short. In 
the male a long lobe proceeds from under the upper margin of 
the last segment; app. sup. very small; app. inf. large and 
elongate. 
Larva unknown, inhabiting standing and slowly-flowing waters. 
‘The absence of the transverse vein uniting the costa and sub- 
costa In the anterior wings, and the presence of fork 3 in the 
posterior, readily separate this from all the other genera with 
tricalearate anterior tibiee.

Head fuscous with greyish hairs. Palpi yellow; the two terminal 
joints fuscescent. Mesothorax dark blackish-fuscous. Anterior 
wings smoky-grey, the hairy clothing varied with pale yellow, 
especially towards the base; a little beyond the middle there is 
a large irregularly formed pale yellow spot on the disc, and 
beyond this and sometimes connected with it, a similarly coloured
