Head transverse ; neck elongated; thorax with posterior lateral spines ; abdomen broad ; stigma robust; m. long, its angle at the oblique little greater than a right angle, its margin beyond this straight ; disc. 1 acutely pointed above, reaching subcosta. , I. 9199 (B.). Probably a Sihus, but differs in shape of disc. 1 and straight b. n. The wing shows some resemblance to Ci'utistes, but has r. 2 curved. Xenarchu (?) distracta, sp. n. (Fig. 16.) Length 2-l mm.; anterior wing about 2 mm., hyaline, faintly reddish ; stigma dark rut'o-fuscous, nervures paler. Stigma large ; in. large, r. curved, not distinctly angled 1( Xcnarcha (?) distracta, sp. D. at ; second obsolete, but represented by stumps of veins ; disc. 1 just meeting corner of second , forming a cross; posterior nervure leaving lower apical corner of disc. 1 ; abdomen short and robust. , I. 9099 (B.). From the venation this would appear to be a Hormiine, rather close to Chremylus, but that genus has the second complete and the stigma more lanceolate. Hormvus agrees with the fossil in the stigma, but has second Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original London, Taylor and Francis, Ltd
