22 MESSRS. R. E. TURNER AND J. WATERSTON ON THE 



punctured, posteriorly rugulose ; pleural area rugulose-punctato ; 

 juxta-coxal area with six or seven strong strife. Basal tooth of 

 petiole blunt, not prominent, spiracles prominent ; basal area 

 of petiole indistinct. Hind coxjb and femora shining, externally 

 closely and finely punctured. Second abscissa of the radius con- 

 siderably longer than the second ti-ansverse cubital nervuie ; 

 distance between the recurrent nervure and the second transverse 

 cubital nervure equal to more than half- the length of the latter 

 nervure.

This is one of the ma.les selected by Morley as a co-type of his 

 L. clavicorne, to which it is not at all nearly allied. 



Labium fulvicorne, sp. n. 



5 . Fulvo-ferruginea ; antennis articulis apicalibus f ulvo-ochra- 

 ceis ; mandibulis, apice excepto, labro, clypeo, facie lateribus, 

 mesonoto margine laterali anguste, scutello, postscutello, propleuris 

 infra, macula horizontali sub alis anticis ; sulcoque epimerali flavis ; 

 tarsis posticis nigris, metatarso apice solum nigro ; alis sordide 

 hyalinis, venis nigris, stigmate f usco-ferrugineo. 



Long. 10-12 mm. 



5 . Clypeus and labrum sparsely, face more closely punctured ; 

 clypeus not on the same plane with the face, divided from it by a 

 distinct groove, the face broader than long ; front smooth, occiput 

 with a few small punctures. Antennae 46- jointed, more than 

 three-quarters of the length of the whole insect ; third joint fully 

 as long as the fourth and fifth combined. Thorax shining and 

 almost smooth, the median lobe of the mesonotum alone distinctly 

 punctured ; notauli short, only distinct anteriorly. Epimeral 

 groove very finely crenulated above, smooth below. Arete of the 

 median segment smooth and shining, the external, pleuial, and 

 spiracular arose very finely punctured ; petiolar area with a few 

 scattered punctures ; basal area very short, the carina separating 

 it from the areola narrowly broken in the middle, the ai'eola 

 completely divided from the petiolar and dentiparal arose. Hind 

 coxse shining, very spai-sel}^ punctured, reaching as far as the apex 

 of the petiole. Second abscissa of the radius longer than the 

 second and neaily as long as the first transverse cubital nervure, 

 the distance between tlie second recurrent nervure and the second 

 transverse cubital nervure a little less than half as great as the 

 length of the latter nervure.

In this and some closely-allied species the external aj'ea of the 

 median segment is more distinctly sculptured than the dentipai-al 

 area, the reverse being the usual condition in the genus. The 

 probable male of this species has the pleurae and fore legs 

 almost entirely yellow, also a broad transverse ba,nd at the apex 

 of the median segment and the pleural arese. The number of 

 joints in the antennas is 41-44. These males are much smaller
