Paurophatnus gen. nov. 



Metauotum with a curved keel behiud the middle and 

 oue round the top of the apical slope; both are curved back- 

 wards in the middle; the basai is curved broadly backwards, 

 forming 2 large semicircular areae, open ai the base; the 

 spiracles are minute, circulai*. Transverse median nervure 

 in hind wiugs broken at the middle, or very shortly below 

 the middle. First transverse cubital nervure short, the 2nd 

 obsolete; the récurrent nervure is received distinctly beyond 

 it. Antennae 28-jointed; the 3 r d joiut, if any thiug, shorter 

 than the 4th. Post-petiole not clearly separated, becoming 

 gradually wider towards the apex, Head wider than the 

 thorax, the temples short, abruptly, obliquely narrowed. 

 Parapsidal furrows deep, not reachiug to the apex, nor meeting 

 there. Eyes large, parallel, the hinder ocelli are widely sepa- 

 rated from them. Centre of face raised, distinctly separated 

 from the sides; it is separated from the clypeus through the 

 dilated part becoming depressed at the apex; but not by a 

 furrow. The abdomen is smooth and jshiuiug, without any 

 dépressions. Malar space shorter than the autenual scape. 



Cornes near to h.ierella and Caenaulax (cf. Records Alb. 

 Mus., 1, 246 and 247). It differs from both in the greater 

 number of the antennal joints ; the former may be further 

 known from it by the metanotnm being regularly areolated; 

 the latter by the deep trausverse furrows on the abdomen, 

 by the strougly striated segments, and by the median segment 

 haviug only one trausverse keel. 



5. Paurophatnus annulipes sp. nov. Q. 



Black ; the antennae rufo-testaceous, darker towards the 

 apex; the maudibles and palpi somewhat similarly coloured ; 

 the apices of the abdominal segments narrowly testaceous ; 

 the 4 front legs piceous, the hinder black except for a white 

 band near the base of the tibiae ; the calcaria white. Wiugs 

 hyaliue, a large cloud, narrowed in front, behind the trans- 

 verse basai aud trausverse mediau nervure and a larger oue, 

 extendiug from near the base of the stigma to near the 

 apex, brownish- fuscous iu colour ; there is a uarrow hyaline 

 cloud in it along the trausverse cubital aud the récurrent 

 nervure aud in the Ist apical cellule at the apex ; the costa, 

 nervures and stigma black; the latter white at the base; 

 there is a small cloud near the apex of the hiud wiugs in 

 front. — Length 5 mm (the apical segment is absent).
