radius does the discal ciliation come close to the vein. To beyond the 
upturn of the submarginal the basal triangle is bare, so also is the angle 
between the radius and the postmarginal. A broad bare track extends 
below the marginal. From the end of the radius a broad nearly bare 
line extends almost to the apex. Beginning behind half and extending 
parallel to the costa an isolated row of isoclinal bristles extends to below 
the radius. Another row runs some distance from the hind margin and 
jiarallel with the latter beginning below the origin of the marginal and 
bending round to meet the apical edge in front of the posterior angle. 
There is also a short submarginal row along the retinaculum. Hind- 
wings over thrice as long as broad, length 2-1 mm., breadth *6 mm., 
submarginal : marginal 4 : 3, 8-10 minute bristles behind the hooks, and 
2 stronger before the upward bend of the vein, which emits a basaUy 
directed short chitinous vena spuria. 
Legs ; from coxa to end of tibia all the legs shew a distinct pattern, 
that on the coxae being coarse and much raised, at least externally. 
All the tibiae are closely set anteriorly and more sparsely posteriorly, with 
equal short bristles, but on the hind legs (posterior aspect) the bristles 
sub-dorsally and subventraUy (2-3 deep) are stouter and longer. The 
first joint of the tarsus is elongate (see table) while 1-4 bear on both edges 
numerous equal short spinose bristles, 1-2 pairs at the tip being heavier. 
The fifth joint is entirely covered with minute weak bristles. Forelegs 
tibial spur pre-apical, anteriorly 5 spines in apical comb, opposite the 
spur, and another, no longer, isolated, at the apex ; posteriorly, before half 
way between the spur and the insertion of the tarsus, is a remarkable short 
stout spine, and 2 very short peg-like spines at apex. Comb of 1st tarsal 
joint (extending to apex ventrally), with about 40 closely set thin spines. 
Mid legs : anterior apical comb, irregular, 6-7 spines, spur § of the 1st 
tarsal joint. Hind legs : femur posteriorly a few subdorsal bristles 
towards the apex, an infra-median row of longer bristles (about 12) 
and some others very minute ventrally near base. Tibia ; the short spur 
(about ^ of the 1st tarsal joint in length) lies between two apical combs, 
of which the anterior contains 14 stouter, and the posterior 22-24 finer 
spines. Though, the spur is undoubtedly single the apex of the hind tibia 
requires careftd examination. On the sloped apical edge (anterior) of 
tarsal joints 1-3 there is a median short spine. Abdomen, only medianly 
(broadly) on the 1st tergite and (narrowly) on the second is the surface 
smooth. The pattern is transversely elongate and a little raised on the 
6th. Spiracles minute, nearly circular, separated from the posterior 
edge of the tergite by 6 times their own diameter. The setigerous process 
on tergite 7 bears 5 short bristles. Free portion of the sheath | of the 
base.
