236 THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 



in my female specimen is broken off; but in the male it is twice 

 the length of the thorax The body is for the greater part rufous, 

 with the apex of the abdomen black ; the wings are unspotted. 

 The characteristic features are the keeled scutellum, the areola 

 longer than wide and broadly rounded behind, the long slender 

 abdominal petiole, and the long, deep, narrow gastrocoeli. 



LORTYGIA RUFA, Sp, UOV. 



Rufous ; the four apical segments of the abdomen, an oblique line 

 below the middle of the propleurfe, a similar line below the fore wings, 

 one on the lower half of the apex of the mesopleurae, the depressions 

 round the scutellum, the greater part of the base of the median segment 

 and the apex of the posterior median area largely, black ; the antenna 

 rufous, the apex broadly black ; the wings hyaline, with a slight 

 fulvous tinge ; the stigma dark testaceous ; the nervures blackish. ? 

 and 3- . Length 13 mm. 



Hah. Khasia Hills (coll. Eothney). 



Face closely, the clypeus more sparsely punctured ; the vertex and 

 front are more closely punctured ; the eye orbits are pallid yellow, the 

 inner above sharply margined. Mandibles black at the apex. Scutellum 

 more sparsely and strongly punctured than the mesonotum. Except 

 in the centre at the base and on the sides of the areola, the median 

 segment is closely and distinctly and rather strongly punctured. 

 Petiole smooth ; the second and third segments closely punctured ; 

 the gastrocoeli obsolete ; the base of the segment closely punctured 

 like its centre. The fourth abdominal segment may be black, wholly 

 or in part. 



Callajoppa, gen. no v. 



Scutellum pyramidal, with a long oblique apical slope. Basal 

 depression of the median segment wide and deep ; the areola small, 

 smooth, and shining, rounded behind and not margined there ; the 

 apex transverse ; there are five apical arese, all clearly defined, this 

 being also the case with the spiracular. Labrum projecting. Apex 

 of clypeus transverse, its fovefe deep. Antennae stout ; the third joint 

 not much longer than the fourth. Areolet 4-angled, the nervures 

 touching on the top ; the disco-cubital nervure with a large stump of 

 a nervure ; the transverse median nervure not interstitial, being 

 received shortly beyond the transverse basal. Abdomen not much 

 longer than the head and thorax united ; with eight segments, the 

 last small and with large cerci ; the apex of the abdomen broad and 

 bluntly rounded ; the segments minutely punctured, almost smooth 

 and distinctly shining. 



Comes close to DimcBtha, which has a similarly formed median 

 segment and smooth, not margined, small areola ; but it may be 

 known from the present genus by the scutellum not being pyra- 

 midal, by the abdomen being longer and narrower, by the wings 

 being clouded at the apex, by the disco-cubital and recurrent 

 nervures not being broken by the stump of a nervure. Erythro- 

 joppa is also nearly related ; its occiput is sharply keeled ; the
