notum, radial sector angular, not strongly upturned toward apex, 

 the common basal stem of the median and cubital veins short,

 Abdomen flattened, laterally thinly ciliated with rather long 

 hairs. Legs compressed, thinly pilose, front femora above 

 arcuately dilated, the inferior margin straight, front tibiae at 

 apex as broad as femora in the middle, hind femora subequal 

 in length and shape to fore femora but a little narrower, reach-

 apex, inner claw of front tarsi much longer than outer claw. 



Length, male, 2.8 millimeters. 



Luzon, Laguna, Los Baiios. 



This is the first Asiatic species of the genus. It is chiefly 

 represented in the Neotropical Region, but one species occurs in
