JAMES WATERSTON. 



and a lateral single, row of hairs reaching to about one-half. Sternum and pleurae 

 smooth or faintly reticulate, with a few inconspicuous hairs. (In the $ this region 

 has a strong, silvery pubescence). Prepectus large, coarsely reticulate. Propodeon 

 normal, spiracle more roundly oval than in the $. Pleurae below spiracle boldly 

 reticulate, with a few weak hairs, not forming a conspicuous patch as in the ?.

Wings : fore wings rather more than twice as long as broad, with a scattered 

 pubescence of equal calibre, wanting only below the junction of marginal and 

 submarginal veins. Submarginal : marginal : radius : post-marginal, 5:3:1:2. 

 Length, 1*3 mm. ; breadth, '6 mm. The submarginal carries ten to twelve bristles. 

 In the cell a double row of short bristles, those at the apex not markedly stronger 

 nor crossing with others on marginal vein. Hi^id wings similar to those of 5 ; 

 three times as long as broad. Submarginal to marginal, 3:2. Length, -9 mm. ; 

 breadth, -3 mm. 



Legs : fore legs with the femur a little swollen, not decurved, both dorsal and 

 ventral edges convex ; chaetotaxy essentially as in the $, but the bristles are longer 

 and form ventrally a distinct row (seven to eight) ; on the anterior face the bristles 

 descend to one-half, reducing the bare area to a streak ; two short heavy spines at 

 upper apical angle, and a transverse comb of six spines. Only the anterior edge
