6- jointed ; however, I think the club is really 8- jointed, the 

 transverse third and fourth funicle-joints belonging to the 

 club. In nir/riclaratvs the first funicle-joint is distinctly 

 longer than the pedicel, first and second club- joints scarcely 

 wider than long. Forewings as in peniatomus, but they are a 

 little infuscated, marginal vein one-half as long as the stigmal. 

 Length, 2'25 mm. 



Described from a single specimen caught while sweeping 

 on edge of jungle, May 18, 1913. 



Hah. — North Queensland: Kuranda, near Cairns (A. P. 

 Dodd). 



Type. — I. 1446, South Australian Museum. A slide bear- 

 ing female antennae and forewing.

 •cephalic femora suffused with black ; first seven antennal joints 

 reddish-yellow. Like niririclavatus, but first funicle-joint no 

 longer than the pedicel, third and fourth funicle-joints not 

 forming part of the club ; club 6-jointed, second joint dis- 

 tinctly the longest and widest. Abdomen with second seg- 

 ment the longest. Length, 1'60 mm.
