surface; primary furcation very near to base of wing. (I find no 
traces of the supernumerary vein between Rs and the pterostigma, 
as shown by Newstead. Either he examined an anomolous wing or 
else examined the wing on the insect and mistook the costa of the 
hind wing beneath for this vein.) Hind wings small, transparent. 
Abdomen large; male anal valve about as long as forceps, cylin- 
drical and truncate at apex, with the anus occupying most of trun- 
cate surface;—with a long, lateral, sinuate prolongation extending 
caudad to base of forceps (cf. fig. C). Forceps long, stout, acutely

Female genital segment long and very slender, longer than rest of 
abdomen, dorsal valve longer than ventral, both acute at tip.
