in the l st cubital cellule along the cubitus, and a wider one 

 on the outerside of the recurrent nervure. On the front a 

 curved furrow runs from the ocelli to shortly above the 

 middle of the eyes. $

Cape Colony (Winthem). 



Head closely punctured, the face and malar space 

 densely covered with short, white pubescence; the front 

 and vertex more sparsely with shorter dark pubescence. 

 The thorax is more strongly punctured; the puncturation on 

 the metanotum much stronger, on the scutellum much 

 weaker than it is on the mesonotum. The latter is dis- 

 tinctly trilobate, the middle lobe clearly raised, the furrows 

 distinct, crenulated strongly; the apex of the mesopleurse is 

 also crenulated, and there is a crenulated shallow furrow, 

 widest at the base, along the lower edge. Metapleurse 

 irregularly reticulated on the lower half. The basal abdo- 

 minal segment is strongly, the 2 nd more weakly longitudinally 

 striated; the 3 rd is covered closely with small round 

 punctures, which, on the base of the segment, interlace.

In this species the apical third of the abdomen may 

 be more or less black, as may be also the apex and 

 lower part of the metapleurse. The specimen in the collection 

 is not much more than 4 mm long.

Black, the abdomen rufo-luteous, the legs yellow, 

 the apex of the hind tibise and the tarsi, black, wings 

 hyaline, suffused with fuscous from the transverse basal 

 nervure, highly iridescent, the apex of costa, the parastigma 

 and the stigma black, the base of costa and the nervures
