Aciculated above, the rest striated. Mesopleurz with the base finely, closely 
striated, the striz stronger at the base, a broad, striated strongly, band on the 
upper half; the apex crenulated, the rest finely rugose. Metapleure finely, 
closely punctured. Legs densely covered with white pubescence, 
Cryptanura fasciatiipennis, sp.n. 
Black, the palpi, tegule, tubercles and metanotal spines whitish yellow, the 
apices of the basal three abdominal segments broadly white, tinged with testa- 
ceous, the last segment white ; the forelegs testaceous, their tibie behind and at 
the base all round white, the middle pair black, the femora rufo-testaceous, the 
tibiz with a broad white basal band, the hind legs black, except for a white basal 
band on the tibiz ; all the calcaria white ; the wings hyaline, a smoky cloud 
beyond the transverse median nervure and extending to the bend of the disco- 
cubital nervure, reaching close to the top part of the transverse basal nervure 
but not going beyond that ; there is a cloud in the apex, which commences at the 
middle of the apical abscissa of the radius ; the recurrent nervure is received in 
the middle of the areolet, which is angled there ; the apical nervure is very faint ; 
the transverse median nervure is received shortly beyond the transverse basal. 
Face, pleure, metanotum and coxe densely covered with white pubescence.

Length 7 m.m. 
Vertex shining, the front more opaque, aciculated weakly so below. Face 
opaque, finely, closely punctured, not separated from the clypeus, which 
is more sparsely punctured. Mesonotum opaque, alutaceous, the furrows 
shallow, but distinct. Base of metanotum opaque, alutaceous, obscurely 
striated on the outerside, the part between the keel and the spines irregularly 
obliquely striated, the apical slope more strongly longitudinally reticulated. 
Propleure striated below and more narrowly at the apex above. Mesopleuree 
and sternum closely, finely punctured, except at the apex above, where it is 
smooth and shining ; the part in front of the smooth space striated ; the meta- 
pleure more strongly and regularly punctured. 
Cryptanura curtispina, sp.n. 
Black, the inner orbits, the line extended to the upper part of the outer, the 
lower fourth of the outer, the line gradually widened below and extended to the 
malar space and the clypeus, the face, except fora mark in the centre of the lower 
half, the mark narrowed above and extending along the upper side of the clypeus, 
mandibles except the teeth, palpi, a line round the base of the prothorax, a 
‘narrower one on the apical half of the pronotum, tegule, scutellum, a large tri- 
angular mark behind the hind wings, metanotal spines, a mark, twice longer than 
wide, on the apical half of the metapleure, whitish yellow ; the apices of the basal 
three abdominal segments yellow, tinged with rufous, the fourth segment rufous, 
the apical whitish yellow. Four front legs pallid yellow, the base of the middle 
tibie paler ; the hind legs rufous, the tibia darker coloured, especially towards the 
apex, their base with a white band, the basal joint of the trochanters and the
