at their caudal ends in H. albolineata SCOTT. The acetabular pitting on the female paratype examined is variable. On the right side the anterior acetabulum has two or three? in front and two pits behind the cleft. The middle acetabulum has two pits on each side of the cleft end the posterior acetabulum one (or two together) on the top. On the left side the anterior acetabulum has two or three? pits in front and three behind the cleft. The middle acetabulum has two in front and four behind and the posterior acetabulum has one on top. The beak slightly surpasses the middle of the postocular. The dorsal interocular groove is short, the ventral interocular groove is long reaching almost to the thorax in the rear and forward beyond the eyes. Pits on thorax are frosted, a transverse row behind anterior margin of prothorax; the median line pitted on posterior half and a row of pits either side; sides of pronotum with pits arranged more or less in two rows; clypeus is blunt tipped but not of truncate type; the dorsal terminal process of this female extcnding beyond the abdomen by a distance equal to one-half the median length of the tergite: hindfemur attains the anterior margin of the last abdominal segment. \\ e have specimens of this species sent to us by Professor TEISO ESAKI from Japan. We also 1 have a long series of a species from China which appear to be only a variety of this species. Hydrometra strigosa (SKUSE) 1893? (Plate VIII). Limnobates strigosa SKUSE, FREDEBICK A. A. Records of Australian Museum II, p. 43, Pl. XI, Figs. 1 & 2. This species was described from Sydney and Botany Swamps, N. S. W., Australia. We have seen a female from Adelaide River determined as this species by DISTANT. It was sent to us for examination by the kindness of Mr. W. E. CHINA of the British Museum. This specimen measures 10.8 mm long. There appear to be four pits ( two on each side of the cleft) on the anterior and middle acetabula and one on top of the posterior one. The sixth dorsal abdominal segment (exclusive of connexivum) is longer than in H. feta HALE. The clypeus is conate. Hydrometra insularis* sp. n. (Plate VIII). Size and color. Length, 10.2 mm to 12 mm; the general color of the body is light brown; a white median longitudinal stripe on dorsum of postocular portion of the head and on pronotum; a curved white line
