SPOLIA ZEYLAN1CA. 
Of eighteen specimens referable to this species six females and 
nine males from Pundalu-oya were taken in March “ frequenting 
hot dry rocks away from water ; very active on the wing ; living- 
specimens minutely pale speckled.” 
Three females from Kadugannawa, taken in January, were “ from 
dry rocks on side of railway.” E. Ernest Green. 
Bolivar records the species from Kodiakanal, South India, and 
Pundalu-oya, Ceylon. 
This species is distinguished by the approximate elevated eyes 
which are subflattened but strongly globose in profile ; by the 
exserted ocelli; by the position of the antennae which are inserted 
below the eyes, and the angulate excavation below the median 
ocellus visible in profile. 
Genus Mazarredia, Bol. 
Plate II., fig-s. 7-75. 
Head little or very slightly exserted. Vertex little narrower 
than one of the eyes, or subwider, very frequently narrowed 
forward, on either side with oblique carinula more or less com¬ 
pressed ; face little oblique. Frontal costa scarcely forked behind 
the ocelli ; the rami little divergent forward, viewed in profile 
shortly cornpresso-elevated between the antennae, frontal contour 
appreciably sinuate. Antennae filiform often strongly elongate, 
inserted little before the eyes ; posterior ocelli situated scarcely 
before the middle of the eyes ; apical article of maxillary palpi 
narrow subcompressed. Pronotum above flattened, between the 
shoulders, often gibbose, in front truncate, posteriorly lengthily 
acuminate, humeral angles obtuse ; posterior angles of lateral 
lobes outwardly more or less laminato-expanded, strongly truncate, 
acute angulate but not at all spinose, very rarely turned downward. 
Elytra oval; wings perfectly explicate. Legs elongate ; anterior 
femora very slightly compressed, above carinate, carinse entire or 
gently undulate ; posterior tibiae little enlarged towards the apex, 
on either side spinose ; the first and third articles of the posterior 
tarsi equal in length.

Body small rugulose. Head very little exserted ; face slightly 
retreating. Eyes of moderate size distinctly globose, being little 
higher than the dorsum of pronotum. Vertex viewed from above 
slightly wider than one of the eyes, the front margin subconvexly 
truncate but viewed in front strongly concave, the frontal 
carinulae laterally elevated on each side, acute cuspidate, in
