distance before second cubital cell equal to first abscissa of radius, 

 intervening vein decolored; parallel vein strongly curved and 

 inserted at lower third ; submedian cell far longer than median ; 

 radial vein in hind wing obsolete ; nervellus but little oblique. 

 Luzon, Benguet, Baguio (coll. Baker). 



Rhogas (Aleirhogas) exceptus sp. no v. 



Pale ferruginous throughout, legs a little paler, antennae darker 

 apically; interocellar area black; palpi stramineous. Wings 

 very faintly smoky, stigma and veins stramineous. 



Female: Length, 5 millimeters; ovipositor very short, but 

 slightly exceeding apex of abdomen. 



Head viewed from above rather narrow and long, with eyes 

 small and strongly bulging, the distance between them a little 

 less than length of head; vertex strongly convex, its entire 

 surface strongly sculptured, back of ocelli very strongly trans- 

 versely striate, at ocelli the striae curving forward between 

 ocelli and eyes; vertex very strongly narrowed back of eyes, 

 length back of ocelli greater than exposed cheek margin 

 and twice the length of entire ocellar area; ocelli small, ocellar 

 area greatly contracted ; distance from ocelli to eyes nearly four 

 times interocellar distance and about three times the long 

 diameter of an ocellus; posterior ocelli separated by a distance 

 less than the long diameter of an ocellus, anterior ocellus not 

 farther removed; occipital margin short and straight. Face 

 subsexangular, appearing strongly produced below, owing to the 

 very short eyes, longer than broad between eyes, subtransversely 

 rugose above, smooth below, and on clypeus, with a distinct 

 median carina in basal half; mouth opening very small and 

 narrow; clypeus small, narrow and long, basal suture highly 

 arched, apical margin strongly incurved; clypeal pits distant 

 from eyes about five times their diameter. Eyes not at all 

 emarginate opposite antennae. Mandibles outwardly strongly 

 sculptured. Head viewed from side with face a little prominent, 

 its margin scarcely curved, clypeus very prominent ; cheeks very 

 broad, far broader below than above, upper width about one 

 half eye width; malar space of great size, its length greater 

 than entire eye length and far greater than lower width of 

 cheek; eye small, very short and regularly subelliptical. Maxil- 

 lary palpi reaching tegulae, third joint slightly the longest, 

 third and fifth subequal, sixth a little shorter; labial palpi very 

 short, the joints thickened. 



Antennae considerably longer than entire body, scape short 

 and thick, strongly narrowed to base, apical width three fourths
