in ill. produclum but, in the labial palpus, the 3rd joint is longer. The 
proportions are 2:1:3. 
Wings. Length 2-2 mm., breadth 1 mm. As in the other species the 
submarginal is about thrice the marginal but the radius and postmarginal 
(10 : 9) are more developed, the former being nearly J the marginal and 
not a little over -3. There are 9-10 l)ristles on the radius. Hindwings, 
length 1*55 mm., breadth ’55 mm. The upper surface of the basal half 
is not so bare as in other species there being numerous scattered short 
bristles all over. 
Legs. Hind tibiae with apical comb of 12 spines posteriorly and 
about 6 in a transverse row anteriorly. In the mid tarsus the proportions 
are 90, 30, 25, 20, 40 (without claw). In the hind tarsus, joints 
2-4 are absolutely and relatively the same as in the mid legs, 
1 and 5 each a little longer. The hind tarsus is however more 
robust.

Oedaule gen. n. 
(J. Head broad from in front, in profile narrow. Occiput and genae
