 In tliis genus the stem ilfi+2 is longer than the stem 



Female. — Length 7, tegmen 9 mm. 



This species has five apical Rs and six apical Ms, Mi^ 

 being present. Light brown. Tegmina hyaline, slightly- 

 fuscous, the infuscation darkest over apices o£ apical cells ; 

 at the apices of Ms there is a light mark stretching from 

 Ml to M^s.', veins darker brown, spreading into membrane 

 at cross-veins and apical cross-veins. Wings fuscous, with 

 dark veins. 



One female specimen from Gold Coast {A, E. Evans,

 no median carina on frons, clypeus 3-carinate ; vertex 

 small, triangular, base about middle of eyes ; second seg- 

 ment of antennae distinctly longer than wide. Three apical 

 Rs ; five apical Ms, forking of M^ and M^ near Mf. Lateral 

 margins of pygofer rounded, medio-ventral process conical 

 in outline. Genital styles narrow at base, widest in middle 

 where it is angular, apical half narrowed to a subacute apex. 

 Anal segment large, fairly broad anus near apex, where

 hind margin, the basal one the largest, raised and shiny, 

 situated in cubital area just apical of clavus, the second in 

 cubitus, third between Cu and M^^., the fourth and fifth 

 between M^s, and M^, a minute white dot between each black 

 spot ; the Mi +2? ^^s^ ^^^ ^4^ level with the spots white, 

 margined with a fine fuscous line on each side ; apical cross-
