moderate : clypeus densely clothed with flat scales : thorax and abdo- 

 men rather slender, the latter with a large trilobed tuft, variable in 

 form at its apex : ivings transversely covered with scales at the tip." — 

 Steph. I.e. p. 138. 

 Stephens subdivides the genus iEgeria into sections. 



A. Antennce much shorter than the body: of the males distinctly pecti- 



nated : anterior ivings nearly clothed with scales : abdomen robust. 



B. Antennce as long as the body : of the males generally ciliated : anterior 



ivings with the disc, hyaline. 



a. Abdomen more or less robust and abbreviated, fasciated with 



whitish or yellow. 



b. Abdomen slender and elongated, generally with a single red belt. 



c. Abdomen beltless. 



The last subdivision of Sect. B. has only one individual, viz. Sphinx, 

 (Sesia) JEphemcrceformis, Haworth ; a species not mentioned by Ochsen- 

 heimer.
