broad at base and narrowing to apex, a brown band across from 

 middle of costa to apex of clavus with two darker marks on 

 costa, apex brown, two brown marks on costa before stigma, 

 veins same color as membrane except in hyaline band across 

 corium where there are some brown marks on the veins ; tuber- 

 cles minute, same color as veins. 



Female.— Length, 2.6 millimeters; tegmen, 2.8. Body slightly 

 darker in color. Ovipositor slightly longer than pygofer. 



Amboina, March and April, 1908 (Muir), 1 male and 4 fe- 

 males. Type No. 1065. 



Myndus brunneus sp. nov. Plate 1, fig. 9. 



Male.— Length, 2.6 millimeters ; tegmen, 2.9. Length of ver- 

 tex along middle equal to width of base, base wider than apex, 

 transverse carina in middle distinct, base roundly emarginate. 

 Length of face equal to width, narrowest at base, gradually 

 widening to near apex, then narrowing, sides rounded on apical 

 half. Frontal ocellus distinct. Forking of Sc, and R 9 near 

 middle; M leaving Sc and R at base; C forking about level with 

 the fork of Sc and R; M with five apical veins, namely, 1, la, 

 2, 3, and 4 ; R with two apical veins. Claval veins joining com- 

 missure before apex of clavus. 



Pygofer symmetrical, lateral margins entire; medioventral 

 edge produced into a small angular process. Anal segment me- 

 dian size, asymmetrical, on the right side a spine arises from 

 the margin and is directed basally, on the left side a longer 

 spine is directed ventrally at right angle to anal segment. 

 JEdeagus median size, the epiandrium flattened laterally with 

 three large spines on the ventral aspect near apex, the two 

 apical spines thin and curved, the more basal one broad at base 

 and serrated on edge and drawn out into a fine point. Genital 

 styles flattened laterally, angular about middle, apex broad and 

 truncate, a flange or carina runs from near apex to ventral 

 margin near base. 



Brown; rostrum, legs, and hind margin of pronotum lighter. 

 Tegmina brown, lighter in middle, veins slightly darker, tuber- 

 cles small, bearing black macrotrichia. Wings fuscous, veins 

 brown. 



Female.— Length, 2.9 millimeters; tegmen, 3.4. In build and 

 color similar to male. Ovipositor projecting beyond pygofer; 

 anal segment a little longer than broad. 



Amboina, January, 1908 (Muir), 1 male (holotype), 1 female 

 (allotype) , 1 damaged male. Type No. 1048.
