S80 CATALOGUE OF 



fourth ; fifth very much longer than the third. Antennae slender. Pro- 

 thorax with two transverse furrows, the hinder one angular; sides slightly 

 rounded ; hind border straight, slightly notched on each side. Sheaths of 

 the oviduct hroad, much curved, a little shorter than the abdomen, serrated 

 towards the tip beneath and for half the length from the tip above. Legs 

 very slender; hind femora incra^sated towards the base, with a few minute 

 spines beneath like those of the four anterior tibiae; hind tibiae with many 

 minute spines in four rows. Wings extending a little beyond the abdomen. 

 Fore wings thickly and irregularly reticulated, a little longer than the hind 

 wiugs. 



This genus may be distinguished by the much more prominent rim 

 round the insertion of the antennae and by the wings from Odontura, with 

 which it agrees in the structure of the sheaths of the oviduct.
