scattered over tlie outer part of tlie wing, some of which form a curved

 the wings fuscous, with the white costal spots reproduced, and there are

 smooth and pointed, slightly curving up in front, the terminal segment 

 being shorter than the second. Proboscis very short and slightly scaled.

 vein convex on the outside ; 10 arises from the upper angle of the cell and 



I I from the subcostal before the middle. Hind wings somewhat triangu- 

 lar, with eight veins : i b furcate at the base, 2 from near the end of the 

 cell, which is closed and scarcely reaches to the middle of the wing ; 3 and
