A SYNONYMIC LIST OF THE PANORPID^ OF JAPAN.

Panorpa galloisi, n. sp. {Futaten-sliiriagemushi.) 

 Subcosta of the fore wing extended to the pterostigma, as in 

 P. communis and P. cornigera. Body blackish piceous ; rostrum 

 blackish piceous (slightly shorter than that of our other Panorpids), 

 with the palpi piceous ; legs testaceous. Wings rather broad 

 (broadest at the pterostigmatal region), whitish with the fuscous 

 veins, with the apex acutely elliptical ; the only conspicuous mark- 

 ings (fuscous in colour) are of somewhat quadrate form in the fore 



Aulops galloisi, n. sp., male. — a, Appendices ; b, Apex of abdomen. 



wing and of a triangular shape in the hind wing and are situated at 

 the pterostigma, which is somewhat opaque, occupying its middle 

 one-third ; three very insignificant spots found in the fore wing 

 placed obliquely from the pterostigma to the hind margin, the first 

 situated at the middle of the wing and the last at the hind margin. 



In the specimen (male) the posterior margin of the third abdo- 

 minal segment is, so far as I can observe, formed like the other 

 segments, and not produced into a median lobe, as in most of our 

 Panorpids. The fifth and sixth segments stout and obconical, the 

 latter is very conspicuous, and bears a short but prominent spine at 

 the middle of the posterior margin ; seventh slender, longer, and 

 cylindrical ; eighth much more slender and cylindrical and ahnost 

 equal in length to the former ; ninth (cheliferous segment) stout and 

 rounded (not elongated, as in P. japonica and others), the chelae
