534 Mr. Edward Saunders 



on 



slightly infuscate, radial cell pointed. Abdomen very shining, 

 black, with very large and remote punctures, the posterior margins of 

 the first six segments with a pale yellow band, sometimes broken into 

 2 lateral spots and a central line. Seventh segment sharply bidentate, 

 largely and closely punctured, all the segments at the sides with a 

 fimbria of rather stiff golden hairs, which project at the sides, giving 

 the angle of the segment a fasciculated appearance ; beneath black, 

 segments rather finely punctured and somewhat dull at the base, 

 shining and very largely punctured at the apex which bears a 

 fimbria of fine golden hairs. Eighth segment with a curved central 

 process. Legs with the femora black, except at the extreme apex, 

 tibiae and tarsi pale, the former more or less marked with black on 

 their inner side. 

 Long. 8-11 m.m. 



In one specimen taken by Mr. Eaton the neuration of 

 the wings differs greatly from that of all the others in 

 having the radial cell snbtruncate, the 3rd submarginal 

 longer with all its angles almost rectangular, and emitting 

 a nervure from its upper external angle. As the neuration 

 in the 2 wings does not exactly agree I feel convinced 

 that this is merely an occasional sport.
