base of the latter with a thick hair brush ; the other joints 

 with short spines beneath ; the fore tarsi pilose beneath. 



PSEUDAGENIA FESTINATA, Smith. (Pl. III. f. 3). 



This species, I consider, identical with P. alariSy Sauss. 

 Smith's type is smaller, and the wings have not the yellowish 

 tint quite so marked. 



PSEUDAGENIA CEL^ENO, Smith. 



A $ from Barrackpore, is, perhaps, this species — at least 

 it agrees fairly well with the description so far as that goes. 

 The eyes distinctly converge towards the apex ; the clypeus 

 is transverse at the apex ; the sides being oblique ; the ocelli 

 form a triangle, and are separated from each other by a 

 perceptibly less distance than they are from the eyes ; the 

 second and third cubital cellules at the top and bottom are 

 subequal ; the first recurrent nervure is received a little 

 before the middle ; the second in the basal third of the 

 cellule ; the nervures are pale testaceous. From alaris it is 

 easily known by the truncated apex of the clypeus. The 

 long spur of hind tibise does not reach the apex ; the meta- 

 tarsal brush slight. 



PSEUDAGENIA ARIEL, sp. nov. 



Black, shining, pubescent, eyes distinctly converging 

 beneath, the space separating them at the top being 

 distinctly greater than at the bottom. Ocelli in a triangle ; 

 the hinder separated from each other by a less distance 

 than they are from the eyes. Clypeus convex, the basal half 

 laterally oblique ; the apical curved, terminating in a blunt 

 point. Occiput bluntly rounded. An indistinct furrow 

 runs from the ocelli to the antennae. The head is convex 

 in front, shining, finely punctured, sparsely covered with 

 long silvery hairs ; the cheeks and clypeus bear a silvery 

 pubescence ; antennae longish, stout, pruinose, tapering
