joint of antenna deep brown, remaining joints light brown with dark 
brown plumes. Mid ungues unequal but simple. In all respects the male 
is ornamented like the female. 
Occurrence .—Described from a series caught in the neighbourhood of 
silent jungle pools either on the surface of the water or settled on living or 
dead leaves at the edges. The male was taken in the jungle at Raub. 
Remarks .—Resembles Uranotaenia Unimaculiala but is at once distin¬ 
guished from it by the wing marking there being two costal spots, and the 
banded hind tarsi. 
Uranot^nia Unimaculiala. n. sp. 
The head has two bluish-white lines meeting on the vertex and form¬ 
ing a V between the arms of which is a patch of purple-bronze scales and 
on either side similar coloured patches. The proboscis is unusually long. 
The wing is very characteristically marked: the costa and first vein are 
scaled with dark brown scales for about three-fourths of their length and 
this dark scaling extends as a band across the wing beyond its centre. 
The abdomen and legs are dark brown. 
Female Head .—On the vertex is a tuft of long bluish-white scales and 
running backwards from this on either side is a band of broad racquet¬ 
shaped scales of the same colour. These bands pass backwards diverging 
as they go to the margin of the occipital foramen. They vary much in 
width in different specimens. In the one described they form a V with its 
apex at the vertex and the space between the arms covered with purple- 
bronze scales, but in other specimens the blue scales cover the larger part 
of the upper surface of the head leaving only a small portion on the nape 
clad with dark scales. Outside the blue bands the head is clad with dark 
purple-bronze scales. I can detect no upright forked scales on the type 
but on another specimen where the head is bent more downwards a few 
small dark brown upright scales can be seen. There are two long dark 
brown vertical bristles and three or four orbital bristles of a similar colour. 
Basal joint of antenna brown with (on the inner side) a row of rather 
stout bristles which curl upwards and outwards, second joint light brown I 
as long as any two of the succeeding joints bristly all the way up and 
without a definite ring of verticillate hairs, remaining joints brown with a ring 
of short stout hairs at the apex of each the dark brown verticils being basal. 
Clypeus brown, nude. Palpi minute, clad with brown scales and numer- 
ous dark bristles. Proboscis very long fully quarter its length longer than 
the whole body ; slender and enlarged at the apex and clad with purple- 
brown scales. 
Thorax .—Prothoracic lobes brown covered externally by broad racquet¬ 
shaped bluish-white scales. Mesonotum brown with two central purple- 
brown stripes. When dry the mesonotum is a metallic-bronze. Just in front j 
of the wings there is a bluish-white line composed of a single row of broad 
almost circular scales and the rest of the mesonotum is clad with dark 
brown and paler brown narrow-curved scales intermixed. There are the 
usual bristles which are dark brown and those overhanging the wings are 
unusually stout and long. Scutellum dusky-brown somewhat denuded but 1 
apparently entirely covered with very dark brown spatulate scales. Pleura
