61. Ophion skeltonii, n. 8. 
Exp.,.al. 101.; long. corp. 73 1. 
Shining castaneous ; face, clypeus, and vertex as far as 
a narrow line behind the eyes yellow; eyes, ocelli, ex- 
treme points of the mandibles, and claws black; antenne 
wholly castaneous, and a castaneous dot on each side at 
the base of the clypeus; the lower parts of the face and 
the extreme back of the head are also of the same colour. 
Wings iridescent, with piceous nervures, and finely 
speckled with brown; stigma large, yellowish; below it 
is around darker yellow spot in the upper part of the 
interno-cubital cell, where it begins to narrow; and half- 
way between this and the extremity of the cell is a curved 
yellowish line.

62. Ophion insularis, n. 8. 
Exp. al. 13 1.; long. corp. 8 1. 
Closely allied to O. skeltonti, but less shining; the 
head and ocelli are concolorous, except the eyes, which 
are liver-coloured, and narrowly edged within and behind 
with dull yellow. Wings nearly as in skeltonii, but the 
spot below the stigma is larger, more yellow, and fol- 
lowed by a small darker spot close to the upper part of 
the curved line, which is piceous, like the other nervures. 
New Zealand (Sinclair).—B. M. 
These two curious species are more nearly related to 
an unnamed Oplion from Natal than to any other in the 
British Museum collection.
