cylindrical, segment 3 scarcely narrower than the rest. A p- 

 pendages: superior 1*7 mm., narrow wavy sublanceolate, 

 slightly thickened towards the tips, which are pointed; deep black. 

 Inferior 1*2 mm., subtriangular, black, tip curved upwards. 



In the living insect the black basal half of the wings possesses 

 a rich purplish-brown sheen, and is considerably deeper than in 

 the female. One very mature specimen in my collection has a 

 very large portion of the outer half of the wings slightly clouded 

 with dull brown.

£. Unique. Total length 52 mm.; abdomen 32*5 mm.; fore- 

 wing 45-5 mm.; hindwing 44 mm. 



Wings: neuraiion close, black; basal half of all four wings> 

 as far as nodus, of a deep opaque black colour; the boundary 

 between the black and hyaline portions crossing the wing slant- 

 wise, ending on the forewings about 7 mm. beyond apex of 

 triangle, and on hindwings at about the termination of the sectors 

 of the triangle; rest of wings hyaline except tips, which are just 

 touched with smoky-black; hindwings broad at bases; pterostigma 

 6 mm., black; membranule, fore 2*5 mm, very narrow, hind 

 35 mm., broader, dull dirty grey; triangle of forewings very 

 narrow, 6-7-celled, followed by very irregular rows of cells in the 

 discoidal area, first 7, then 7 or 8 placed rather irregularly, 

 then several irregular curved rows of 5 or 6; the discoidal area 

 is then divided into two by a short auxiliary sector, curving up 

 to meet the short sector 6 cells from the margin of the wing; 

 triangle ofhindivings long and narrow, 4- or 5-celled; short sector 

 broken for 2 cells where it meets the auxiliary sector; sectors of 

 arculus separated at bases in forewings, just touching at bases in 

 hindwings; nodal sector distinctly waved just beyond middle; 

 basilar spaces of all wings free; submedian space of forewings 

 containing one cross-nervule before level of arculus and three 

 rather close together beyond arculus, that of hindwing carrying
