LEIA. 29 



Jl'inys nearly limpid, slightly greyish along the hind border, and with 

 a pale brownish subapical band; subcostal vein very short, united 

 near its tip to the radial by a transverse veinlet ; radial vein united to 

 the cubital rather near its tip ; fork of the subanal vein a little nearer 

 than the base of the subapical to the base of the wing. Halteres tes- 

 taceous. Abdomen ferruginous ; hind borders of the segments black. 

 Legs testaceous ; a black mark on each coxa and femur ; tarsi black. 

 Not common. (E. I.)

" Black, clothed with whitish hairs. Ocelli three, almost in a line. 

 Palpi yellow. Antennae blackish-brown, rather thick ; second joint 

 with a long hair above. Wings obscurely hyaline, very finely pubes- 

 cent; veins nearly like those of Sect. B b. Meig. Zw. i. pi. 9. f. 14; 

 costal, subcostal, and cubito-radial veins brownish-ferruginous ; the rest 

 slender, almost colourless ; cubital ending before the tip of the wing ; 

 subcostal as long as three-fourths of the cubital ; connecting vein or 

 radio-cubital vein upright, very short, opposite the middle of the sub- 

 costal vein, nearer than usual to the base of the wing ; mediastinal 

 vein straight, evanescent before the radio-cubital ; praebrachial vein 

 with a very short petiole and with long branches opposite the fork of 

 the cubito-radial ; costal vein extending towards the tip of the wing, 

 beyond the end of the subcostal, as in Tetragoneura, to which this 

 species is nearly alike in habit, and, if I am not mistaken, a variety has 

 the connecting veinlet doubled in one wing, and thus forming a very 

 minute areolet. Legs rather short and thick ; tibiaa darker than the 

 femora ; posterior tibiae with a rather thick row of minute spines ; hind 

 tibiaa with a few stouter spines ; tarsi brownish." Hal. MSS. 



Rare. In Mr. Haliday's collection. (I.)

 interrupted and occasionally almost obsolete grey bands ; the first in 

 the middle ; the second sometimes entire, at three-fourths of the length ; 

 the third subapical; subcostal vein short, united near its tip to the 

 radial by a transverse veinlet ; radial united to the cubital at some little 

 distance from its tip ; fork of the subanal much nearer than the base of 

 the subapical to the base of the wing. Abdomen with a black or 

 brown band on the hind border of each segment. Tarsi blackish, ex- 

 cept at the base ; tips of the hind femora generally blackish. 



Not rare in the autumn. (E.)
