BOMBAY: Poona. viii.SO (It. C. WrovgJiton'Brit. Mus.). 

 GERMANY. 



The normal length of this species in Germany is 13-14 millim., 

 but the specimen taken at Poona by my friend Mr. Wroughton 

 so exactly coincides with it in every other respect that I do not 

 feel justified in regarding it as distinct. In this example the anus 

 is entirely rufescent and the third segment has no lateral black 

 lines. 



339. Campoplex indicus, sp. n. 



Campoplt.r indicus, Cameron MS. 



'$ . A dull black species, with only the abdomen and front legs- 

 partly red. Head closely and rugulosely punctate, and roundly 

 constricted behind the eyes ; face distinctly and somewhat deeply 

 punctate ; cheeks as broad as the base of the immaculate mandibles- 

 Antennce immaculate, with the basal flagellar joints not discrete. 

 Thorax : metanotum somewhat evenly scabriculous, with no trace 

 of areae, centrally subsulcate and trans-aciculate from near base to 

 apex ; spiracles linear. Scutellum black, dull, and a little convex. 

 Abdomen discally linear, obsoletely punctate and compressed from 

 base of third segment ; basal segment glabrous and hardly broader 

 beyond the subcentral spiracles : second segment pilose, with 

 distinct thyridii. its apex somewhat broadly and the two following 

 segments entirely bright red; terebra straight, slightly longer 

 than the basal segment. Leys normal, black, with the front tibiae 

 and inner side of their femora alone red; intermediate tibia; 

 dusky ferruginous ; inner hind calcar slightly longer than the 

 outer. Wings clear hyaline, with the tegula? and stigma black ; 

 areolet oblique, distinctly petiolate, with the petiole about one- 

 third the length of the internal submarginal nervure ; external 

 submarginal broadly curved ; radius slightly sinuate above the 

 areolet, which emits the recurrent from its centre; lower basal 

 nervure elongately postfurcal ; lower wings with basal abscissa of 

 radius nearly twice as long as the recurrent nervure and the 

 nervellus subgeniculate, though not intercepted, at its lower 

 third. 



Length 11 millim. 



PUNJAB : Simla, iv. 97 (Col. Nurse, type); KAJPUTANA: Mt. Abu 

 (Col. Nurse). 



Type in Col. Nurse's collection. 



This species is apparently allied to C. stragifex, Forst., but with 

 the frons not carinate, intermediate femora black and the third 

 abdominal segment immaculate laterally, speculum not smoother^ 

 second segment shorter than third, and the legs much darker. 



Possibly my C. indicates is the male of the present species,, 

 though I think not.
