aspect. Genital styles large, apex widely angular, inner margin 

 roundly emarginate, outer margin angular. 



Female. Macropterous. Length 3 # 8 mm. ; tegmen 4*6 mm. 

 In colour similar to male. 



Described from four males and four females from Kashmir, 

 North- West Himalayas (H. T. Pease, 1915) and one male from 

 Pashok, Darjiling District, East Himalayas (F. H. Gravely, June, 

 1916). This species is very near to E. speciosa (Bohem) of Europe 

 but the genitalia are different. I have only a brachypterous 

 female of the European species for comparison. 



Sadia rostrata Melichar. 



One female specimen from Eden Gardens, Calcutta (F. H. 

 Gravely, November, 191 1). 



Family ACHILJDAE. 



Faventia pustulata (Walker). 



One female from above Tura, Garo Hills, Assam, 3500 to 3900 

 feet elevation (S. Kemp, August, 1917). 



Anal segment beyond anus pointed and curved ventrad. 



Faventia flava, sp. nov. 



Female. Length 54 mm.; tegmen 77 mm. 



Vertex broader than long, the base widely and angularly emar- 

 ginate, apex widely angular; the carinae of face projecting in dor- 

 sal view. Apart from the shape of vertex typical of genus. 



Yellow or light brown. Pronotum darker brown with a 

 narrow lighter hind margin, head darker between carinae. Teg- 

 mina yellowish, veins same colour ; fuscous between the oblique 

 cross veins at apex of costal cell, a few small, scattered spots of 

 brown over clavus and corium, a series of six minute dots in apical 

 cells. Wings hyaline, veins light, fuscous over apical portion. 



Male. Length 5*4 mm. ; tegmen 7 mm. In colour similar to 

 female. 



Lateral margins of pygofer roundly produced ; medio-ventral 

 angularly produced with the apex narrow and truncate. Genital 

 styles large, apex rounded, produced into a narrow angular or spine- 

 like projection on the outer margin near apex. Anal segment 

 flattened horizontally, broadened slightly to apex which is round- 

 ed. When at rest the genital styles come together in the middle 

 line, the medio-ventral process of pygofer filling the space between 

 their bases, the projection on outer margin of genital styles laying 

 between the anal segment and the rounded projection of the lateral 

 margins of pygofer, thus forming a " closed" pygofer. 



Described from one male and one female from above Tura, 

 Garo Hills, Assam, 3500 to 3900 feet elevation (S. Kemp, August, 

 1917).
