This species is remarkable for the asymmetry of the furrows 

 on the second abdominal segment; they are not placed oppo- 

 site each otiier, that on the left side, looking from the head, 

 being near the middle and straight, oblique ; the other is 

 near the apex and is roundly curved, the part beyond it is 

 closely striated, that on the opposite side to it at the apex is 

 smooth ; beyond it is a narrow, deep, closely striated furrow, 

 from which the following segments become gradually 

 narrowed. Parapsidal furrows indicated on basal slope only; 

 the apex of mesonotum flat. Temples roundly narrowed; the 

 occiput slightly roundly incised. Face sparsely punctured 

 laterally, each puncture with a longish black hair. Pubes- 

 cence moderately dense, fulvous. Wings longer than the 

 body, the second cubital cellule as long as the third, the 

 transverse median nervure not quite interstitial, the re- 

 current nervure received near the apex of the first cubital 

 cellule. 



Iphiaulax lineaticarinatus^ sp. n. 



Luteous, the flagellum of antennaj black. The wings 

 yellowish hyaline, the costa, stigma, and nervures luteous; 

 tiie parastigma and apex of stigma black ; a black cloud at 

 the base of the stigma, oblique, slightly narrowed in front, 

 extending to the recurrent nervure, which it covers; a broad 

 lighter-coloured band on the apex, commencing near the base 

 of the radial and second cubital cellules, broader and deeper 

 tinted behind ; there is a similar apical cloud in the hind 

 wings. Smooth, shining; a distinct narrow keel of equal 

 width down the middle of the first and second segments and 

 a less distinct one down the third ; there is a broad depression 

 down the sides of the second segment, curved, narrowed and 

 oblique on the inntr side of the base ; there is a distinctly 

 defined smooth funow on the basal half of the third ; the 

 suturiform articulation wide, crenulated. Temples wide, 

 obliquely narrowed ; the occiput rounded inwardly, the sides 

 broadly rounded. Face covered with long black hair. 

 Clypeus clearly separated, forming a distinct semicircle.
