NOTE ON DEVA ORNATA OTTOLENGUI. 



(Lepidoptera; Noctuidae.) 

 BY HARRISON G. DYAR. 



In volume ix of the Cat. Lop. Phal. (p. W>, 1910), Sir (}. 

 F. Uainpson includes this species in his list of "species omit- 

 ted" with the note "? Chalcopasta, sect, with long upturned 

 palpi." The type is before me, and I am of the opinion that 

 the above brief remark aptly describes the relationship of the 

 species. However, the effect of the presence of long palpi 

 covering the front has been to entirely obliterate the frontal 

 tubercular structure, the front being gently bulging, perfectly 

 smooth, without any trace of the usual tubercle. This pre- 

 vents the inclusion of the species in C/uilcopastn, in spite <>f 

 the conformable I'acies and thoracic tufting, so that a new 

 generic term must be employed. I propose RODRIGUESIA, for Dr. 

 H. ( Htolengui, who originally indicated that the genus was new, 

 but did not name it. The front legs are missing in the type, 

 but presuming that a claw is present, the genus falls in the 

 table on page 3 of vol. ix above mentioned, where it will form 

 a new section between Xanthiria and Pseudoligia, "Frons 

 with rounded prominence without corneous plate below it.''
