label: CalUcarpa longifolia Lam., Oengaran-Gebirge, altitude 1400 M., April, 

 1914, DvL., No. 6. The material consists of but one female and two pupae and 

 inasmuch as the female in the type lot had its characteristics partly obscured 

 by the adherent anterior portion of the exuvium, a detailed description of this 

 sex and also of the pupa, previously unknown, is given below. 



Female. Length 2.25 m.M. Antennae nearly as long as the body, sparsely 

 haired, light brown, 14 segments, the fifth cylindric, with a length nearly five times its 

 diameter, the 13th segment with a length 2'/4 times its diameter, the 14th subglobose. 

 Palpi, first segment subquadrate, the second narrowly oval with a length over twice 

 its width, the third about twice the length of the second, more slender. Mesonotum 

 dark brown, the submedian Imes yellowish, scutellum yellowish brown, postscutellum a 

 little darker, abdomen reddish brown, haltères pale yellowish, coxae and femora pale 

 yellowish, tibiae and tarsi dark straw. Claws long, moderately slender, strongly curved, 

 the pulvilli a little shorter than the claws. Ovipositor when extended nearly as long as 

 the body. 



Pupa. Length 3 m.M. Kather slender, yellowish, the thoracic regions darker, 

 antennal cases extending to the base of the abdomen and with a conspicuous triangular 

 chitinous horn basally, the mesal margin minutely serrate. Wing cases extending to the 

 third abdominal segment, the leg cases to the fifth. Abdomen rather coarsely shagreened, 

 the basal three fourths of the second to the seventh segments dorsally with three or four 

 somewhat irregular, transverse rows of stout chitinous spines, the posterior row the 

 stoutest. Terminal segment with the extremity somewhat chitinized and an approximately 

 triangular group of six stout spines posteriorly, with smaller spines basally.

Asphondylia leeae n. sp. 



A number of adults and pupae were reared from a fruit gall (See Bull. 

 Jard. Bot. Buitenzorg, 2d Ser. 15:36, 1914), the lot bearing the following label: 



„Die Mücken kommen gegen 6 Uhr mittags aus ihren Gallen. Leea 

 sambusina Wild. Beeren Galle Beitrag VII, No. 443, Buitenzorg 24/9, '18 

 DvL." This species is typical of the genus. 



Male. Length 2.5 m.M. Antennae probably nearly as long as the body, sparsely 

 haired, light brown, 14 segments, the fifth cylindric, with a length four times its diameter. 

 Palpi, first segment short, second broadly oval, the third more than twice the length
