408 INSECTA^ NEUROPTERA. 
The second ^^L(5gion/’ Macromiay distinguished from Coi'dulia by the 
hyper-trigonal area being reticulate, is divided into four genera,” a3 
under ; — 
Basal space without nervules. 
INIedian space without nervules in all the wings . , , . Idionyx, 
Median space reticulated in the anterior, and empty in the posterior 
wings JBschnosoma, 
' Median space reticulated in all the wings Macromia. 
Basal and median spaces reticulated in all the wings . SyntJiemis, 
The genus” Macromia is further subdivided into two subgenera,” Ma- 
cromia and Bpophthalmiay the former separated from the latter by the dis- 
coidal triangle being more acute inferiorly, and that of the posterior Avings 
shorter, with the external side straight.

Gomphina, 
Onychoyomphus yencei. Be Selys-Longchamps, Ann. Ent. Belg. xiv. p. 14, 
describes the hitherto unknown ^ of this species, and figures the appendages 
(/. c. p. 20). He considers that the supposed males from Egypt may form a 
distinct species, closely allied to pumilio, for which he proposes the provi- 
sional name of hayeni, 
JEschnina, 
Be Selys, Tr. E. S. pp. 412 & 413, reserves the immQ Cyrtosoma of Char- 
pentier for the species, hitherto included in Anax, comprising mediterraneans 
and its allies, proposes Gomphacsclma as a subgeneric division for Gynacantha
