connected from spiracular one; supracoxal Hange of moderate size. Fore femur nearly 3, mid femur weakly more than 4, hind femur 2.5 times as long as broad; fore tibia 5.33, mid tibia nearly 8. hind tibia 6.66 times as long as broad; mid and hind tibiae haired with dense short setae. Fore tarsi in ratio: 3/4.5/4.5/9, mid tarsi in ratio: 8/7/4.3/11, hind tarsi in ratio: 7/5/3.5/8.9. Spur of fore tibia very short, spur of mid tibia as long as breadth of tibia, spur of hind tibia stout, slightly shorter than half of tibia. Fore tibia with short protruding apical spine. Fore wing twice as long as broad, costal cell bare, about 6.5 times as long as broad, submargi­nal vein with 2 setae on its dorsal surface before its "break", where it meets parastigma; marginal vein 0.8 times as long as costal cell, postmarginal vein as long as stigmal, the latter is almost sessile; speculum open below; fringe of apical margin of fore wing fragile and often lost, if present as long as thickness of marginal vein at its median part. Gastral petiole strongly transverse, reduced to narrow band. Gaster shape varies from almost circular (Algerian specimens) to 1.2 times as long as broad (type series). First gastral tergite with several short sparse setae. Male. Unknown. Discussion. SZELÉNYI (1977) described this species as having no apical fringe on forewing. This feature is present in the holo-and paratype, but the apical fringe of speci­mens from Algeria is present. One specimen has most of these marginal setae lost, but some of them are present in distant points. In an other specimen the apical fringe of fore wing is completely present. I think, that in this species the setae of apical fringe are very fragile, and can easy be broken during preservation and/or mounting. In the type series from Mongolia the wings of all specimens are glued on card, leaving no chances for the fragile marginal setae to remain. The Algerian specimens have scape more wide and flattened than in type speci­mens, but I prefer to treat this feature as a geographic variety and keep these specimens as members of the same species. Biology. Unknown. Distribution. Mongolia (SZELÉNYI 1977), new for Algeria. Entedon (Entedon) parvicalcar THOMSON, 1878 (Figs 13-17) Entedon parvicalcar THOMSON, 1878: 244.
