Material examined. INDIA: Himachal Pradesh: 17 3, 17 Ƥ, Kufri, 15.x.1979, C.A. Viraktamath ( UASB). NEPAL: 1 3, 1 Ƥ, Kathmandu, 22.vii–28.x.1978, V.K. Thapa ( UASB).

Distribution. India, Nepal, Pakistan.

Remarks. The illustration of aedeagus of J. gopii given by Pruthi (1936, Fig 138) is erroneous. The dorsal connective and aedeagal shafts have been misrepresented, although style is well illustrated. This is definitely a member of the genus Jilinga .
