(1) Platypalpus oriens, nov. sp. — Length 2.6 mm. "Very close to albíseta Panz. Body black, mesonotum 
polished except narrowly along the sides; pleure uniformly pollinose except largely on the sternopleurz. Palpi yellow, 
base of the proboscis reddish. Antenna elongate, the white arista longer than the antennz. Pygidium globular, more 
rotund than in albíseta but terminating in a sharp claw, the dorsal valve hairy and with a blunt backward prolongation, 
Legs yellow, the front femora with nearly uniform outstanding yellow hairs, front tibig without basal thickening. 
Wings nearly hyaline, neuration as in albiseta, 
Several specimens, Tjibodas, Mt. Gede, 4,500 to 9,000 feet altitude, Java, from the Bryant and Palmer 
collection in the U. S. National Museum, The entirely pruinose mesopleurz, lack of prominent central bristles of the 
front femora, the yellow palpi and blunt process of the dorsal valve are distinguishing characters, which differ from 
those of albíseta. In that species the dorsal valve is not hairy and is projected backward as along acuminate process, 
P. subulifer Meijere is also closely related but has the arista equal to the antenna, the base of the front tibia swollen, 
spindle-like, the proboscis black and the legs brown.
