Abdonien æneous or coppery, sometimes a little greenish, greyish white prui- nose, especially on the front part of the segments; with the hght from behind it is pruinose with an æneous middle stripe and a spot in the middle at the side of each segment; it is clothed with short, black hairs, and has somewhat long hindmarginal bristles. Ion- gest on the first segment. Venter greyish, slightly hairy. Hypopygium black, greyish pruinose", longitudinally striated on the sides behind; the eighth segment has black hairs; the posterior ventral lobes are of a curious shape, they have a thin, short stalk, the end is somewhat spoon-shaped, with a convex upper margin and a slightly concave lower margin; at the end there are two small points, each Avith a hair; on the right side there is also a median ventral lobe with some points, and this part of the hypopygium is thus somewhat unsymmetrical; the inner lamellæ somewhat long, the median have a double curve and are a little dilated at the end, with hairs at the lower margin; the lateral are a little dilated in the middle and towards the end. The outer lamellæ are long, triangular, with the apex rounded; they are black or brownish, with long hairs at the ventral and apical margin, shorter at the dorsal margin. The sheath of the penis is quite short. Legs somewhat long and thin, middle femora with a slight prominence below about in the middle; front metatarsus as long as the four folio wing joints, hind metatarsus about one third shorter than the second joint; coxæ grey, femora yellow, front femora with a little more than the basal half, middle femora with the base grey, hind femora grey with only the apical part yellow; all tibiæ blackish at the apex, the hind tibiæ most distinctly; front tarsi with the four last joints compressed and a little dilated, feathery haired at the upper margin; the apex of
