Body structures: Prothoracic lobes large, cordate, their 8 veins 
often forked and having numerous, irregular cross veins connected 
by anastomoses. Length of mesothorax 7.9 mm. Legs relatively 
long, with slender tibiae, long tarsi and claws. Mesothoracic tibia 
9.6 mm long; tarsus and claws combined 11.03 mm; metathoracic 
tibia 12.4 mm long. 
Stenodictya agnita is related to perrieri Brongniart from which 
it differs only in details of form of the posterior margin and in the 
more proximal origin of Rs. These two species may eventually turn 
out to be synonymous. 
Stenodictya perrieri Brongniart 
Figures 59, 60 
Stenodictya perrieri Brongniart, 1893: 384, pi. 22, fig. 4; Handlirsch, 1906: 
64, pi. 8, fig. 22; Handlirsch, 1919: 3. 
This species was based by Brongniart on specimen 22-4, a com- 
plete fore wing. The cross veins in the subcostal area are more 
regular than shown in Brongniart’s figure. I am referring to this 
species another undescribed fore wing, which differs from the type 
specimen in the more pronounced convex curvature of the posterior 
margin. 
P'ore wing: length 65 mm, width 15 mm. Anterior margin con- 
vexly curved basally, then almost straight. Posterior margin with 
pronounced convex curvature at the end of the basal third of the 
wing length, then straight. Apical part of wing moderately nar- 
rowing. Subcostal area relatively broad and short; Rs originating 
at the mid-wing, with 4 branches. Anal area large, with 7 branches. 
As noted above this species is closely related to agnita from which 
it differs in the minor respects already noted. 
Stenodictya thevenini Meunier 
Figure 62 
Stenodictya thevenini Meunier, 1908: 154; Meunier, 1908: 37, fig. 1; Meu- 
nier, 1909: 133, pi. 1, fig. 2; Handlirsch, 1919: 5, fig. 5. 
This species was based by Meunier on a perfectly preserved fore 
wing, distinct from any other known species of Stenodictya. 
Fore wing: length 78 mm, width 18 mm. Anterior margin very 
convex proximally, with a pronounced concavity just beyond mid- 
wing. Posterior margin slightly concave. Apical part of wing 
gradually narrowing. Sc extending far beyond mid-wing; Rs origi- 
nating beyond first third of wing length, with four branches. Anal 
area large, with 5 veins. Archedictyon with elongate cells.
