Auxiliary vein reaching the costa about opposite the mid cross-vein and 
considerably before the tip of the posterior branch of the fifth long, vein ; 
second long, vein appearing to originate in the first basal cell opposite the 
base of the anal cell and some distance before the marginal cross-vein; 
third long, vein appearing to commence a short distance before the super¬ 
numerary cross-vein and before the tip of the sixth long, vein ; middle 
cross-vein in the male situated somewhat before or exactly in line with 
the posterior cross-vein, in the 9 beyond the latter a distance equal to its 
length, always situated beyond the supernumerary cross-vein a distance 
equal to its length; all about the same length; first sub-marginal cell 
considerably longer and narrower than the second posterior cell, the tips 
of the fork slightly convergent, its base situated opposite that of the

(Proc. Linn. Soc. N. S. Wales, iii. 2nd s. p. 1755, Skuse.) 
Antennae about three-fourths the length of the palpi, dark brown 
almost fuliginous, with hoary pubescence and verticils; first joint of 
scapus black. Head fuliginous, adorned with white scales, intermixed 
with some black hairs and a tuft of long white parallel hairs stretching 
out from the vertex over the bases of the antennae. Proboscis and palpi 
densely and uniformly clothed with deep violet-black scales, the terminal 
joint of the latter very slightly tipped with white. Thorax primrose-brown, 
with a small roundish black sput laterally about the middle of its lenuth 
and another immediately in front of the scutellum, traversed by three 
long, parallel double rows of moderately long black hairs intermixed with 
short slender shining white scales; lateral margins slightly testaceous 
with a few scattered white scales and some short white hairs above and in 
front of the origin of the wings; pleurae dark brown, somewhat marbled 
with testaceous; scutellum testaceous, with a dark roundish spot on the
