A small species somewhat resembling the European L. fla- 
vipes, F. It seems to have no near relative amongst the 
described Oriental species. 
Libnotes regalis, sp. n. 
Flead missing. Thorax (damaged) ochreous, dusted over 
with yellowish grey ; prescutum with four rather ill-defined | 
blackish-brown yellowish-grey dusted stripes on the posterior 
half, and with a dark mark at the side towards the front ; 
scutum with a pair of somewhat triangular dark spots ; 
scutellum dark at each side. Pleure mainly dark, an 
ochreous spot on the upper half of the sternopleura. Abdomen 
missing. Legs ochreous; tarsi more brownish ; a narrow 
and rather indistinct dark ring near the tips of the femora. 
Claws with three or four distinct teeth, the largest nearest 
the apex. Wings remarkable for having two adventitious 
cross-veins, placed in the cells Ry,, and Ry, (submarginal 
and first posterior), the venation otherwise resembling that 
of the L. peviloptera group: R, ends in the costa a short 
distance beyond the marginal cross-vein ; M,,,. forks beyond 
the middle of cell Ist M,, which is nearly four times as long 
as its greatest breadth. Cu, meets M; halfway between the 
base of cell Ist M, and the fork of M,,5. Ax is strongly 
curved downwards at its tip. Ground-colour of wings 
yellow. A deeper yellow spot over the base of Rs, surrounded 
with a black border, from the lower edge of which a streak is 
emitted towards the base of the wing. Black streaks over 
many of the veins; a blackish spot on the wing-margin in 
the cell An and another at the anal angle. The cord and all 
the cross-veins, also the base of Ms, are broadly margined 
with black, though these veins themselves remain of the 
yellow ground-colour. Halteres with yellow stem and black 
knob. 
Size of wing 25x6mm.; length of front leg 43 mm. ; 
middle lez 40 mm. ; hind leg 42 mm. 
This is quite the most remarkable species yet described 
in this genus. It is unfortunate that the specimen, like some 
others in the collection, had been damaged by ants. 
Taihoku (7. Shtraki). One specimen. 
ANTOCHINI. 
Teucholabis nigerrima, sp. n. 
Head, thorax, abdomen, and legs entirely shining black, 
black-haired. Wings blackish, a pale streak in cell Ax.
