Willowmore, Cape Colony ; January ; 1 ? . Type in my 

 collection. 



Both species have no appendix to the radial cell, and agree 

 in tliis respect, as well as in the absence of the lateral keels 

 of the first tergites, with P. latifrons, Kohl ; but in that 

 ppecies the radial cell is subtiuncate, almost rounded at apex, 

 while in the two species described above it is triangularly 

 pointed.
