transverse median a little oblique; radial vein in hind wings 

 decolored, nervellus oblique. 



Luzon, Laguna, Mount Banahao {Baker). 



This species closely resembles R. exceptus in many respects, 

 and might be supposed to be the male of that species, were 

 it not for the numerous differences that are clearly specific. 



Ehogas (Aleirhogas) sclmltzei sp. nov. 



Bright ferruginous ; legs, except at base, and antennae piceous ; 

 interocellar area and palpi piceous; abdominal dorsum piceous 

 to black beyond second segment. Wings slightly smoky, stigma 

 and veins pale brown. 



Male, length, 6 millimeters. 



Head viewed from above broadly transverse, with eyes small 

 and bulging, distance between them greater than length of head ; 

 vertex convex, its entire surface strongly sculptured, back of 

 ocelli shallowly, but coarsely, transversely striate, the striae not 

 curving forward between ocelli to eyes; vertex strongly nar- 

 rowed back of eyes, but occipital carina long and gently in- 

 curved; length of vertex back of ocelli a little less than length 

 of exposed cheek margin and subequal to length of entire 

 ocellar area; ocelli of medium size, ocellar area large; distance 

 from ocelli to eyes about twice interocellar distance and about 

 three times long diameter of an ocellus ; posterior ocelli separated 

 by a distance greater than the long diameter of an ocellus, 

 anterior ocellus not farther removed. 



Face to mouth wider than long, subquadrate, evenly rugose 

 throughout, clypeus minutely roughened ; a short median carina 

 just below antennae; mouth opening small and narrow; clypeus 

 small and narrow, but broader than long, basal and apical 

 margins strongly curved and subparallel; clypeal pits distant 

 from eyes about eight times their diameter. Eyes very slightly 

 emarginate opposite antennae. Mandibles outwardly strongly 

 sculptured. Head viewed from side with rather prominent upper 

 carinated portion and clypeus ; cheeks very broad, broader below 

 than above, upper width about equaling eye width; malar 

 space of great size, its length subequal to eye length and greater 

 than lower width of cheek; eye small, elliptical. Maxillary 

 palpi short, stout, not reaching tegulae, fourth joint equaling 

 fifth and sixth together, third shorter. Labial palpi very short, 

 basal joints stout. 



Antennae shorter than entire body, scape short, evenly nar- 

 rov/ed to base, length nearly twice the apical width, funicle 

 much narrower and one half length of scape, strongly narrowed
