 to posterior prothoracic margin. Pterostigmata of all four wings 

 grey. Legs primrose-yellow with a black ring at each articulation.

The male has been compared with the type by Dr. Ris, who has 

 kindly informed me that he can find nothing to distinguish it 

 therefrom, save that whilst in the type the pterostigmata of the 

 hinder wings a^re of a yellowish white, in Mr. Movilton's specimen 

 they are bright orange. 



The posterior prothoracic margin is without projections. The 

 legs are pale orange-yellow with yellow spines and black tibio- 

 femoral articulations. The anal appendages are figured by Dr. Ris. 

 They are missing, together Avith the last three abdominal segments, 

 in this specimen. 



The single female included here has also been examined by
