8. GENUS LEPTOMETOPIELLA, NOV. GEN. 
Characters. — Eyes separated on the front in both sexes, the lowermost facets largest ; antennze - 
three-jointed, inserted above the middle of the head; discal cell long, anal crossvein interrupted beyond 
its middle, anal vein reduced to a fold, anal angle of the wing scarcely developed, the wings accordingly 
cuneiform ; notopleural bristles reduced; lateral valves of the pygidium greatly convex. Other characters 
as described for Leptofesa, 
Type species : L. sphenoptera, Loew. The shortened anal crossvein is found also in Hoflopesa 
and is more or less indicated in true Leptopezas, where the anal vein is weakened and the crossvein 
becomes attenuated.
