Allied to N. dohertyi, Dist., but differing by the larger size, 

 differently coloured and longer antennae, though the relative

 gibbous, &c. 



NYSIUS INCONSPICUUS. (Vol. II, p. 18.) 



Since I described this species from the Bor Gluat I have received 

 a number of specimens from other parts of India. In some of 

 these the veins to the corium are either spotted (as described) or 

 wholly pale fuscous ; the basal joint of the antennae as well as the 

 apical joint is most frequently infuscate, second joint slightly 

 longer than the third, third and fourth subequal iu length.
