Avec I'aide des especes snivantes je vais completer la caractdristique dn genre 

 Maracanda, en ajoutant les caractcres commnns a toutes les especes que je counais 

 de ce genre. 



Antennae insertione distantes, thorace breviores. 



Abdomen ? octavo sternito in lobnlos divergentes ad modum furcae postice 

 j)rodncto (fig. b, b) ; setis apicalibus uucis (fig. 8, a). 



Tibae 1, II, femoribus I, II breviores. 



Alae sectore radii ultra ramum obliquuiu cubiti orto ; area radiali paucis 

 venulis internis, 2-3 in ala posteriore. 



II est utile de transcrire ici les mots de la traduction auglaise du te.xte russe 

 faite par Hajjen {i'unad. Eiitom. 18b7, p. 211j, a propos de la Maracanda amoeii'i, 

 MacLachl. " At the extremity of the abdomen are found two broad triangular 

 plates, rounded off towards the end, appro.ximate, surrounded internally with black 

 hairs ; under these plates are two auxiliary palpi, one under each jdate, the lower 

 half of the following abdominal segment deeply cleft in the middle, and with a 

 lengthened fringe joins a long cylindrical growtii." 



Et ce (jue le Dr. Hageii ajoute : " Of course I am unable to decide if the 

 Russian translation of the English original is exact ; at least only in one place 

 (genitals of female) I find some difHculty in understanding it." 



Je pense qu'avec ce (jui precede et les figures snivantes (tig. 8, a, b) on rendra 

 claire cette jiartie.
