* One specimen has five submarginal cells on one side, the third cell being 

 completely divided by an additional nervule. Norton professes to have de- 

 scribed a male ; but I doubt if he was acquainted with any male of this genus. 

 The insect which appears to be the male of P. compta has pectinated antennae, 

 a dull fulvous thorax, a black scutellum, and the abdomen clouded with brown. 



t The female differs little from Prof. Westwood's description of the male, 

 except in the antennae, which are not pectinated, and appear to be only 12- 

 jointed.
