Types.—Holotype female and allotype male, Mount Arthur, 4,000 ft. 
(28th February, 1921), taken by Mr. A. Philpott; both in Cawthron 
Institute collection. Both specimens were in perfect condition, but the 
male has since been badly damaged by an accident, so the female has been 
made the holotype. The appendages of male have been cut off and treated 
with 10 per cent. KOH for preparation of text-figs. 9 a, 10 b. 
Habitat.—Mount Arthur, Nelson Province, is the only locality for this 
insect, so far as known. ; 
A female taken by myself on Ben Lomond, Queenstown (15th December, 
1921), may possibly belong to this species, but is considerably smaller than 
the holotype, and with narrower wings. 
Genus SvNcHOREMA n. g. (Text-fig. 11.) 
Closely allied to Hydrochorema n. g., with which it agrees in the important 
characters of the general shape of wings, the absence of Af, in hindwing, 
and the general form of median and cubital apical forks, but differing
