 and Cui ; others are situated over the cross-veins, at the 

 base of Rs, at the tips of Sc, Rj, Cuj, and Ax, at the fork of 

 Mi^2? ^^id near the base and apex of R24.3 ; besides these 

 there are a few other smaller spots on some of the veins. 

 Venation : Ri continued beyond the cross-vein for more 

 than twice the length of the latter before turning up to the 

 costa ; cell 1st M2 about five times as long as its greatest 

 breadth ; Mi^2 forking a little before middle, and Cu^ 

 meeting M at about one-third of cell 1st Mg. Halteres
