DOLICHOPUS. 47 



before the suture a bronze-colored spot. Fore coxaa yellow, upon 

 the anterior side with black pubescence. The four posterior coxae 

 yellow only at the extreme tip. Feet yellow ; hind femora with a 

 bristle before the 'tip. The color of the fore tarsi changes from 

 brown into black towards the tip ; middle tarsi blackened from 

 the tip of the first joint ; the hind tarsi are of the same color. 

 Cilia of the tegulae yellowish. Wings grayish-hyaline, the fourth 

 longitudinal vein not broken. 



Male. The lamellae of the hypopygium whitish,_pf medium size 

 and of an elongated, ovate shape, on the upper and apical margin 

 narrowly bordered with black, on the latter much jagged and fringed 

 with partly black, partly yellowish bristles. Hind femora upon 

 the under side sparsely ciliated with very long yellowish hairs. 

 Hind tibiae although somewhat stout, but not thickened ; the two- 

 thirds of their hind side from the base are without hairs. Fbre 

 tarsi over 1^ times the length of the tibiae ; their three first joints 

 slender, stalk-like ; the second joint measures nearly three-fourths 

 of the length of the first, and the third more than three-fourths of 

 the length of the second ; the fourth joint is almost as long as the 

 third, flattened somewhat broader at the end, still even here not 

 half as broad as it is long, white, with a handsome silvery reflec- 

 tion ; upon its upper margin with hardly risible short minute 

 black hairs ; the fifth joint is hardly shorter than the fourth, flat- 

 tened, and somewhat broader than the previous one, black, beset 

 upon the upper margin with short appressed minute black hairs. 

 The costa near the tip of the first longitudinal vein with a not 

 very considerable but quite distinct swelling ; the margin of the 

 wing between the apex and the tip of the fifth longitudinal vein is 

 less rounded than usual, so that there is a trace of a shallow 

 sinus.
