BLENNOCAMPA. 177 



TOMOSTETHTJS. 

 Konow, D. E. Z., 188, 214. 



Body short, ovate, thickish ; head wide, hardly nar- 

 rower than the thorax ; antennse short, thick, pilose, 

 the third joint almost double the length of the fourth ; 

 eyes reaching near to the base of the mandibles ; 

 transverse basal nervure received shortly before the 

 base of the cubital ; claws simple. Posterior wings 

 with or without a discoidal cellule. 



The species of this section are — 



(a) With one discoidal cellule in hind wings : 

 Blennocampa nigrita (Yol. I, p. 235). 



— micans (Vol. I, p. 237). 



— fuscipennis (Yol. I, 247). 



(b) With no discoidal cellule : 

 Blennocampa fuliginosa (Yol. I, p. 249). 



— ephippium (Yol. I, p. 248). 



My B. micans not being Klug's (which is a Rhad- 

 mocera), I propose to call it brachycera.
