LIMNOBIIDA. 
Reference :—The larvz in question were provisionally identified as Limno- 
biids by Mr, C. O. Waterhouse of the British Museum. 
Classification:—Order, DIPTERA, Family, Limnobiide. 
In the tunnels bored by the longicorn larve Apriona 
Germart, in the mulberry stems at Shahdéra Plantation, I dis- 
covered in the oozing sap some thin, semi-transparent, 
white larvze, from half an inch to one inch in length. The larve 
were crawling about in the sap in the tunnels and are not im- 
probably sap-feeders and not parasitic on the longicorns. 
No further data about the life history of this insect are at 
present available.
