Nawala-pittia ( Green) . 



Col. Yerbury obtained several specimens of both sexes. The 

 female is green, with the face mostly pale yellow in front, and 

 the lateral sutures, underside of the thorax, and a lateral stripe 

 on the basal segments of the abdomen of the same colour. Legs 

 black, femora striped beneath with pale yellow. Wings of a 

 slightly clouded hyaline, with black nervures. The three upper 

 thoracic carinse are black. 



This female has much resemblance to that of Neurohasis 

 cliinensis; but the latter may be at once distinguished by the 

 reticulated basal space, the green costal nervure, and generally 

 the more clouded wings, with a false pterostigma.
