Notogonia regina, Turn. Proc. Zool. Soc. London, p. 475 (1908). &. 
Easily distinguished by the very broad fuscous fascia and 
apical margin of the fore wing, a hyaline lunule being left 
occupying the apical half of the radial cell, the third cubital 
cell, and a large part of the area beyond the cells. The 
female has orange antenne. In a specimen from Cape York 
the whole fore wing except the lunule is fuscous.

@. Nigra; argenteo-pubescens ; alis fusco-hyalinis ; tarsis anticis 
spinis longis spatulatis instructis. 
Long. 16 mm. 
2. Clypeus closely microscopically punctured, with a few 
large punctures near the apex, slightly convex, clothed rather — 
sparsely with very pale golden pubescence, which extends on 
the front as far as the anterior ocellus. Second and third 
joints of the flagellum subequal ; the eyes separated on the 
vertex by a distance exceeding the length of the second joint 
of the flagellum. Mesonotum broadly depressed in the 
middle of the anterior margin, the depression extending 
beyond the middle of the segment, which is closely micro- 
scopically punctured and clothed on the sides with very pale 
golden pubescence. Median segment a little longer than its 
basal breadth, the sides somewhat depressed, but distinctly 
margined, the depressed portion rather strongly transversely 
striated, the striz not extending on to the flat dorsal surface, 
but extending over the lateral carine on to the sides of the 
segment, where they become much more delicate and in- 
distinct; the depressed lateral portions of the dorsal area 
clothed with silver pubescence; the posterior truncation 
abrupt, the surface transversely striated on the sides, and 
with a deep median suleus. The four basal dorsal segments 
of the abdomen with broad apical fasciz of silver pubescence ; 
pygidial area closely and rather strongly punctured, clothed 
with dull pubescence which in some lights shows silver, the 
lateral margins well defined, strongly convergent towards the 
apex, which is very narrowly truncate. Third abscissa of 
the radius twice as long as the second, the fourth considerably 
longer than the second and third combined; the distance
