The genus Tipulodina, in my opinion, is to be placed in the 

 subfamily Dolichopezinse, and to this genus must be added other 

 species besides T. pedata Wiedemann, like magnicornis Ender- 

 lein, venusta Walker, inordinans Walker, gracillima Brunetti, 

 and patricia Brunetti. 



110. Megistocera fuscata Wied. 1821. 



A couple of specimens from Mount Maquiling. This is a very 

 interesting species, known from Java, Sumatra, Celebes, Aru, 

 and Borneo. The antennae of the male measure 65 millimeters 

 in length, but they are in some cases more than 80. A very 

 instructive figure of the characteristic wing of the present species 

 has been published.^ 



111. Scamboneura dotata 0. S. 1882. 



A single female from Mount Maquiling. Endemic. This may 

 be the unknown female of Osten Sacken's species, or a different 

 species. It differs from the description of the male in the fol- 

 lowing points: Frons entirely yellow, without middle brown 

 line; joints of the flagellum entirely blackish; thorax entirely 

 yellow, opaque, without stripes; scutellum and mesophragma 

 entirely yellow, the latter paler; pleurae entirely pale yellowish. 

 Abdomen yellowish, with a darker, median longitudinal stripe; 

 ovipositor shining reddish, with the terminal lamellae straight 

 and obtuse at end. 



In the Javanese species, S. qvndrata de Meijere, 1913, of 

 which only the female is known, the thorax has three longitudinal 

 brown stripes; S, vittifrons Walker, 1861, from Amboina, also 

 known only from the female, has an ochraceous unstriped thorax, 

 with two black dots on each side ; in addition, the head, antennae, 

 and abdomen are differently colored. At present I think it 

 better to consider the present specimen as the other sex of 

 dotata, or at most as a variety, which may be named S. dotata 

 unicolor var. nov. 



Key to the Philippine species of the genus Eriocera sens. lat. 



The genus Eriocera seems to be very rich in endemic Philip- 

 pine species; those known to me may be distinguished as 

 follows : 



a\ Wings with only four posterior cells {Eriocera sens. str.). 



6\ Antennae of male enormously elongate, many times as long as the 

 body; wings subhyaline in both sexes, with the anterior and poste-
