tennse short, about two thirds as long as width of head, terminal 

 setae about as long as antennae. 



Thorax thick, strongly arched, surface finely reticulated. Legs 

 short and small. Wings clear, transparent, rounded at apex. 

 First marginal cell much larger than second. 



Abdomen small, short. Male : Forceps very small and slender, 

 acutely pointed; anal valve longer, thicker. Female genital 

 segment thick, not as long as rest of abdomen ; apex abruptly and 

 acutely pointed. 



Described from one male and one female from Mount Maqui- 

 ling, Luzon, P. I. (Baker). 



This species is rather closely related to a Japanese species, 

 Calophya nigridorsalis Kuwayama, differing primarily in charac- 

 ters of the genal cones and forewings. 



Genus HOMOTOMA Guerin 



The members of the genus Homotoma seem to be mostly trop- 

 ical in their distribution. The very thick and densely hirsute 

 antennae are very characteristic of the genus. The genae are 

 produced beneath into broadly rounded cones or prominent 

 swellings. The wing venation is usually peculiar. 



Homotoma radiatum Kuwayama is a Japanese species, while 

 H. distincta Crawford is a closely related Bengalese species. 

 Two new species are added now from the Philippine Islands. 



Homotoma pacifica sp. nov. Plate I, fig. b. 



Length of body, 3.7 millimeters ; length of forewing, 4.6 ; width, 

 1.5; width of head, 0.7. General color glossy black; tibiae and 

 tarsi brown ; wings hyaline, veins black and margined with black ; 

 body surface, legs, antennae, and wing veins clothed with prom- 

 inent black hairs; the dorsum and antennae very conspicuously 

 hirsute. 



Head not as broad as thorax, not deflexed; vertex somewhat 

 cleft in front, concave on each side of median suture, posterior 

 ocelli somewhat elevated; frons covered by genae; genae swollen 

 beneath, but not strongly conical; antennae very thick, very 

 hirsute, five sixths as long as forewings, 2 basal segments very 

 thick, remainder thinner, but very much thicker than in species 

 of other genera, somewhat carinate. 



Thorax not strongly arched, surface glossy but hirsute ; prono- 

 tum long and prominent; legs short, thick, and hairy; wings 

 long, relatively rather slender, hyaline, with black veins and 

 black margins on veins, acute at apex; marginal cells long and 

 large; radial sector short.
