W. NA KAI I AR A : 



nearly related to C. habutsuella Okamoto, but differs from this mark- 

 edly in many respects, especially in wing markings and in the size. 



6. ClimacieUa habutsuella Okamoto. 



Climaciclla habutsuella, Okamoto, Zool. Anz., xxxvii, p. 300 

 (1911). 



There arc in the collection of the Agricultural College, Tokyo, 

 three specimens of this species from Tancgashima and Yakushima. A 

 specimen in my possession, which was given me by my friend Mr. 

 Kimura, was captured in a small village named Ilayano in the Pro- 

 vince of Kazusa. 



Okamoto stated that the prothorax of the species is deep black, 

 but I have found a Tancgashima specimen which had the prothorax 

 not black but brownish. 



This species probably appears in the month of June. 



7. Climaciclla 4-tubercalata (Westwood). 



Mantispa 4 tuberculata, Westwood, Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond., n. s., 

 i, 264, pi. xviii, fig. 1(1852); Walker, Cat. Neuropt. Brit. 

 Mus., pt. ii, p. 225 (1853) ; Needham, Ree. Ind. Mus., iii, pt. 

 iii, p, 195 (1909). 

 Climaciclla 4-tuberculata Enderlein, Stett. Ent. Zeit., p. 361 



(1910); Okamoto, Zool. Anz., xxxvii, pp. 298-99 (191 1). 

 Of this species, only a single female specimen has been received 

 by me from Horisha, Formosa, although it is probably the most com- 

 mon mantispid in that island. 



The specimen on hand closely agrees with Wcstwood's description 

 of Mantispa \-tuberculata except in the apices of the wings being more 

 strongly suffused with fulvous brown than in the \-tuberculata described 

 and figured by him. 



Typical 4- tu 'bereu lata should be common in the western Hima- 

 layas, in Assam and in the northern parts of India.
