NOKTH AMERICAN NEUROPTERA. 199 DESCRIPTIOIVS OF NEW NORTH AMERICAN NEUROPTEROID INSECTS. BY NATHAN BANKS. Ill the following pages I have brought together descriptions of various new species which have come to ray notice, together with some synoptic work on certain genera and one family. The final determination of species must rest on sexual characters, but these ought not to be used until the forms have been thoroughly studied in all her parts for the detection of other characters. So I have not as yet studied and figured the genitalia, but will leave such work for a future revision of the various fiimilies, which I hope abundant material may soon justify. PERLID^E.

NOKTH AMERICAN NEUROPTERA 201 Little has been done to elucidate the sternal characters of the Perlidse ; yet I think that a close study of them will serve to better define the characters of the genera in this family. There are two groups of genera according to the position of the anterior coxse one group where these coxte are approximate and directed more downwards ; the other group where the coxae are widely separated and directed more laterally. To the former group belong Ptero- narcys, Leuetra, Nemoura, Tceniopteryx and Arsapnia. To the latter group are the genera Perla, Chloroperla, Dictyopteryx, Acroneuria and Isopteryx. Capiila has the fore coxae separated, but not as fa)- as in Perla, but the hind coxse are widely separated. Pteronareys has the hind coxte well separated, and between them is a transv^erse depression with a hole at each end ; between the middle coxae is a triangular depression. Perla has no such depressions, but there are slits near the coxae ; the hind coxic are widely separate. I am inclined to think this large genus can be divided on sternal characters into two or more genera. In Leuetra, Nemoura and Tceniopteryx the hind coxae are much closer than in other genera ; I think these will form a tribe. In Chloroperla and Isopteryx the hind coxae are well separated.

Length 4 mm. Amecameca, Mexico, June (Barrett). Diifers from C vicina in slightly larger size, paler head, spots on the mesothorax, etc. MYRMELEONIDJ^. The characters previously relied upon for tlie separation of tlie genera Brachyneinurus and Mijrmeleon are not constant and of little importance. The genera are, however, well known by a certain habitus. I have discovered that there is a g-ood generic character in the origin NOKTH AMERICAN NEUROPTERA 203 of the radial sector of the fore wings. In the genus Brachynemnruf^ the sector arises much nearer to the base, and there are but three (rarely four) cross-veins between it and the base of the wing ; in Mynneleon there are six (or more) cross veins between it and base of wing. The hind tibiae of Mynneleon (our species) are lineate with black.
