Hind femur with irregular teeth behind the basal one (Text-figs 222, 235, 236) . . 31 



Lateral ocellus in both sexes virtually one diameter from eye; ovipositor about 1-3 

 times as long as hind tibia and its furrow virtually reaching base of fifth tergite 

 (Text-fig. 227); Philippines ..... williamsi sp. n. (p. 199) 



Lateral ocellus at least 1-3 times its diameter from eye; ovipositor only slightly 

 longer than hind tibia, or shorter, its furrow not nearly reaching base of fifth 

 tergite (Text-fig. 229) . . . . . . . . . . .28 



Ovipositor less than half as long as hind tibia, directed obliquely dorso-caudad 

 (Text-fig. 234) ; median ocellus in both sexes more than half diameter from scrobal

Ovipositor about as long as hind tibia, directed obliquely forwards (Text-figs 229, 

 232); median ocellus much nearer to scrobes than in alternate; dorsellum pos- 

 teriorly carinate, bidentate .......... 29 



Premarginal carina of pronotum weak, not sharp ; ovipositor slightly longer than hind 

 tibia, its furrow on fifth tergite about twice as long as the ungrooved part of 

 tergite ; hind coxa in lateral view at least 1-35 times as long as high (Text-fig. 228) ; 

 Java ........ calligastri (Ferriere) (p. 200) 



Premarginal carina of pronotum sharp, distinct, although embedded in yellow band; 

 ovipositor only about as long as hind tibia and its furrow at most 1 -5 times as long 

 as the basal ungrooved part of tergite; hind coxa about 1-2 times as long as high 

 (Text-fig. 231) 30 



Dense hairs on face (apart from scattered longer hairs) thin and short, not much 

 longer than hairs laterally on eyes; ovipositor reaching above yellow cross-band 

 on fifth tergite and this place strongly convex (Text-fig. 230) ; pubescence of body 

 shorter, puncturation less dense; Malaysia, W. Indonesia 



pediculata Guerin-Meneville (p. 201) 



Pubescence on face appearing much longer, mainly owing to abundant longer 

 hairs; ovipositor not exceeding yellow band, gaster shorter and less convex at tip

 also slightly denser than in alternate; north-east Australia giraulti nom. n. (p. 201) 



Hind coxa in depression extensively smooth ; in § subvertical ovipositor only half as 

 long as hind tibia (Text-fig. 235), gaster petiolate, shortly ovoid posterior part 

 covered dorsally with fifth tergite, its ovipositorial furrow confined to vertical 

 posterior part ........ globigera sp. n. (p. 202) 



Hind coxa in depression punctured; in $ ovipositor much longer, its furrow extending 



over more than two-thirds of dorsal surface of fifth tergite ..... 32 



Hind femur (? always) red with yellow dorsal streak and dark teeth; ovipositorial
