Spermathecae (fig. 76d) subspherical, faintly sclerotized, with short slender necks, slightly unequal, measuring mm by mm and mm by mm. Genital scleroti- zation as in figure 76e. Male.—Length of wing (, n=4) mm. Similar to the female with the usual sexual differences; mesal spot on tergum II faint (fig. 76c). Genitalia (fig. j-h) of festiva type, with short rounded tergum IX and short basistyle; basidorsal process narrow at base; dististyle as long as basistyle, narrowed in mid- portion; aedeagal sclerites slender at base, moderately stout distally with caplike tip; paramere as long as aedeagal sclerite, broad and well-sclerotized distally, curving gradually to distomesal point. —Malaya. —Holotype female, allotype male, Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, Malaya, 1958, R. Traub, light trap (USNM 69473). Paratypes, 2 males, 1 female, same data. Additional specimens.—MALAYA: Selangor, Kuala Lumpur, Aug. 1958, R. Traub, 2 males (alcohol). Discussion.'—This species is the only Oriental species in the Notata Group which we have examined that possesses batonnets on the fifth tarsomere of the hind leg. In two other respects it is also not typical of this group—the short third palpal segment and the uniform infuscation of the hind femur. Scuta!, wing, and abdominal patterns 288-859 0-68—7.
