Abstract

A description is given for the male, female, and larva of Farula praelonga sp. nov. and for the female and larva of Neothremma genella Denning. Farula praelonga sp. nov. is distinctive in having an exceptionally long internal branch of segment X. The female of Neothremma genella is the only female yet known in that genus to have greatly reduced ventrolateral lobes of sternum IX. Modifications are made to the keys previously published for adults of Farula and Neothremma to incorporate this new information. These two species occur together in abundance; they are univoltine and have emergence periods 6 months apart.
