llelated to A. mitsukurii, Ckll., but distinguished by the 

 ])aler wings, b. n. meeting t.-m,, &c. Only the male of 

 rnitsukurii is known, but A. fukaii is too dillcrcut to be its 

 female. 



In Schmiedeknecht's table of European species it runs to 

 137, and is then doubtful, because tlie red tubercle at base 

 of mandibles is fairly well developed ; it is, however, not 

 like A. insolila. Run beyoiul, it goes to 191, and is then 

 again doubtful, because the scopa is fuscous at base; but run 

 on to 193 it falls closest to A. dissidetis, ■which is quite 

 different. It is quite uulike any European or Asiatic species 

 in my collection.

This was described from the male. Professor Baker sends 

 a fenuile collected on I\lt. IMakiling, Luzon. It has degene- 

 rate lateral ocelli, as in the male, Avhich will readily sej)arate 

 it f)-om C. chahjbea. The niesothorax and scutellum are 

 minutely rugose, Avith scattered very feeble punctures. The
