5j6 Major C. G. Nurse on new 



three parallel impressed lines on mesonotum — one median, 

 basal, two sublateral ; median segment rounded posteriorly, 

 its base smooth or with very minute punctures. In colouring 

 and as regards the wings this does not ditfer from the pre- 

 ceding species. It has, however, a little snow-white pubes- 

 cence on the sides of the median segment, and a line of similar 

 pubescence on each side at the apex of the first abdominal 

 segment, in the latter respect being similar ty many European 

 species of the same genus. 



Long. 4-4-5 millim. 



JIab. Deesa ; fairly common. 



Nearest to P. gvjaratica above, but the different sculpturing 

 of the median segment renders them readily separable. 



Prosopis montana, sp. n. 



? . Stoutly built ; head and thorax closely and finely 

 punctured, median segment finely rugose, its base almost 

 striate; abdomen impunctate or nearly so, the first two 

 segments shining; clypeus reaching not much below the 

 lower margin of eyes, its anterior margin rounded ; an im- 

 ])ressed line from antennal carina to anterior ocellus ; three 

 longitudinal carina on mesonotum — one median basal, the 

 others sublateral ; median segment rounded posteriorly, with 

 a median longitudinal carina at apex. Black; a spot in the 

 centre of clypeus, a lunate spot above it, the latter joining on 

 to marks along the inner orbits, which are broadest medially, 

 and reach as far as tiie base of antenna;, an interrupted line 

 on the pronotum, the tubercles, tegulas anteriorly, and all 

 the tibiae at base, yellow ; flagellum of antennas rufo-testa- 

 ceous, tarsi inclining to testaceous at apex ; median segment, 

 legs, and apex of abdomen with short greyish pubescence ; a 

 narrow line of silvery pubescence on each side of first abdo- 

 minal segment at apex. Wings hyaline, nervures black, 

 tegula^, shining testaceous. 



Long. 5 millim. 



Ilab. Mount Abu ; not very common. 



Near to P. gujaratica and repentens above, but more 

 stoutlv built and different in colourin,ir. 



)is vefusta, sp. n. 



? . Head and thorax with very fine and shallow punctures, 

 median segment at base somewhat finely rugose; abdomen 

 nearly impunctate, shining; clypeus transverse anteriorly, 

 not reaching below the lower margin of eyes, the front be- 

 tween the bases of antennae raised, almost tuberculate, with a
