tergite wide, posterior margin apparently sinuous owing to the two smaller projections of cerci at median line. Cerci (Fig. 16) asymmetrical, basally only moderately widened, basal section of inner margin with an irregular small tooth or concavity. Median section slightly dentate along inner margin, median basal section of dorsal surface with a guttiform protuberance. Posterior margin of last sternite laterally with a small, but well visible rounded riblet. Projecting even beyond border of posterior margin. Penis considerably elongate, with long metaparameres (characteristic to the genus). Metaparameres, originating on laterally on anterior margin of paramere nearly ten times longer than their basal width, characteristically attenuating, thus apically acicular and slightly exclinate. Median incision between genital lobes on anterior margin of paramere insignificant. Genital lobes with strikingly long virgae, projecting far from genital lobes even at rest, their basal section wide, terminating in a concave, strongly sclerotized curvature (Fig. 17). Base of virgae with sclerotized narrow lobes, their rounded apices slightly dentate. Length of body (without cerci): 11. 7 mm, and cerci: 2. 6 mm. Holotype male: Ceylon, Balangoda, "Ceylon, carinofera, H. Dohrn" and "Mus. Zool. Polonicum, Warszawa, 12/45", gen.prep. No. 366, det. Dr. H. Steinmann). - Deposited in the PAN Zoologiczny Instytut, Warszawa. I dedicate the new species to Dr. Wl. BAZYLUK, foremost worker in the group and esteemed friend of long standing. Identification key to males of Epilandex Hebard, 1927 1 (10) Oriental species. 2 (5) Metaparameresoriginating on antero-lateral margin of paramere thin and long, more than ten times longer than their basal width. 3 (4) Inner margin of cerci of male concave based, with a distinct hump at middle, gently curved beyond; smooth. - Distribution: Indonesia handschini Hincks 1954 4 (3) Inner margin of male cerci entire, left branch abruptly narrowed near apex and with or without a sub-apical tooth. - Distribution: Philippines and New Britain, New Ire^ an ^ peterseni Ramamurthi, 1967 5 (2) Metaparameres originating on antero-lateral margin of paramere long and narrow, at most ten times as long as their basal width. Penultimate sternite of male with a distinct carina on caudal half, produced into a process. 6 (7) No sclerotized plate, appendage or lobe near basal section of virga in genital lobe. Cerci of male with a distinct cleft based on inner margin. - Distribution: India undulata Ramamurthi, 1964 7 (6) A sclerotized plate or appendage near basal section of virga in genital lobe present. 8 (9) A longer (median) section of metaparamere parallel-sided, attenuating only insignificantly, narrowing only short of apex; apex thereby rapidly acute. Virga short an thick, without a characteristic basal widening. Sclerotized plate wide. - Distribute Ceyl0n burri (Borelli, 192, 9 (8) Metaparamere evenly and praduaUy attenuating from wide base to aciculate apex. Virga thin and long, basally conspicuously widening (Fig. 17), terminating in a characteristic, concave, strongly sclerotized curvature. A narrow, distinct, sclerotized plate present. - Distribution: Ceylon . , . . J bazyluki sp. nov. 10 (1) An Indo-Australian endemic species, known from the Solomon Islands. Metaparamere about ten times longer than its basal width. Virga long, with a basally dividing widening.
