Left: Right antenna of cJ Mimadelphus vellosus Middle: Side view of apex of abdo- men and hypopygium of same species. Right: Ventro-posterior view of hypopygial structures. (Ae = aedeagus; AL = anal lobes; = sternite 9; = lateral lobe of tergite 9; Pr = process of sternite 9; = ster- nite 7; = tergite 7; = part of hidden sternite 8.) Integument of central frontal part, clypeus, greater part of pleurae, hinder part of scutellum, sutural parts between tergites i and 2, sides of abdomen broadly, venter, and legs shining; mesonotum duller, with fine, microscopical, leathery texture; metanotum dull, and a broad, central, dorsal, partially-bare and partly dark-haired, black streak on abdomen above also dull. Vestiture on head and body above dense, fur-like, vellose, reminiscent of that of the genus Agaperemius Hesse; that on sides of frons, clypeus and sides of face very dense, long, directed downwards, snow white; sides of frons anteriorly also with whitish tomentum; hairs on frons on sides medially just behind antennae sparser than in JVothomydas, erect and white; those on vertex anteriorly erect, white, and a dense cluster on each side of occipital part partly on vertex dense, white, directed more inwards and backwards; hairs discally on mesonotum not very dense, very slightly pale sericeous yello\vish, arranged in 2 rows in anterior half, separated by a central, bare streak and by a sublateral, anteriorly-abbreviated, bare streak on each side, these 3 streaks coalescing behind middle to form a broad, discal, bare area; hairs on sides of mesonotum and on shoulders very dense, snow white, becoming sparser above wing-bases and across base of mesonotum; scutellum with 2 backwardly-directed, snow white tufts; metanotum with greyish white tomentum and no hairs; pleurae mainly bare, the
