MACROPHYA FUKAII, new species. 



Female. — Length 8.5 mm. Labrum broader than long; clypeiis 

 deeply arcuately emarginate, lobes broad truncate; middle fovea in- 

 dicated; antennse furrows wanting; occiput carinate; postocellar 

 area well defined on all sides, about twice as wide as the cephal-caudad 

 length ; postocellar line much shorter than the ocellorbital line ; an- 

 tennse thickening apically, the third joint distinctly longer than 

 fourth; head closely punctured all over; thorax punctured similar to 

 the head but more finely so ; stigma angled at base, gradually taper- 

 ing ; third cubital cell much longer than the second ; sheath narrow, 

 truncate at apex. Black; head and thorax slightly greenish; cly- 

 peus, labrum, mandibles (apices piceous), sides of the third abdominal 

 segment, four anterior legs before, posterior coxae and trochanters 

 beneath and basal half of posterior tibiae pale yellow ; head and thorax 

 with gray hair. Wings hyaline, slightly yellowish; venation dark 

 brown. 



Type-locality. — Wakasa, Japan, One female collected by Mr. T. 

 Fukai, for whom the species is named. 



Type.— Cut. No. 13332, U.S.N.M. 



LAGIUM JAPONICUM, new species. 



Allied to Lagium platyceros (Marlatt), but is easily distinguished 

 by the punctured vertex and posterior orbits, the poorly defined 

 postocellar area, black third and fourth antennal joints, black meso- 

 notum, and yellow scutellum. 



Female. — Length 16 mm. Labrum rather narrow, a very little 

 wider than long, apex rather acutely rounded; clypeus arcuately 

 emarginate ; entire head with close, rather large punctures ; posterior 

 orbits narrow for the genus; postocellar area poorly defined; eyes 

 slightly converging to the clypeus, in this this species differs from 

 the genotype; antennae long, somewhat compressed, third joint 

 much longer than the fourth; mesonotum with close, rather small 

 irregular punctures; scutellum shining, sparsely sculptured; meso- 

 pleurae and posterior coxae sculptured like the mesonotum; trans- 

 verse radius almost interstitial with the third transverse cubitus; 

 transverse median in basal fourth of the cell; one closed discal cell 

 in the hind wings; abdomen longer than the head and thorax, 

 broad; sheath nearly straight above, the lower margin rounded. 

 Head and thorax largely black; clypeus, labrum, mandibles (apices 

 piceous), two basal and three apical antennal joints, palpi, large 

 spot on upper posterior orbits, narrow inner orbits, angles of pro- 

 notum, tegulae and scutellum yelloxv or yellowish; legs mostly yellow; 

 coxae at base, most of posterior femora, and apex of posterior tibiae
