THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 113 



Primaries lanceolate, ovate : the costal vein attains the margin about 

 the middle ; discal cell wide and closed ; the subcostal is obsolete towards 

 the base, and sends a long branch from near the base to the margin 

 behind the cell, two shorter branches from near the end of the cell, and 

 then proceeds to the costal margin before the apex ; the median sends one 

 branch from near the end of the cell to the closed margin, and then pro- 

 ceeds from the end of the cell to the dorsal margin ; the discal gives off 

 four branches, one to the costal margin near the apex and three to the 

 dorsal margin. Submedian simnle. 



Secondaries a little wider than the primaries, with the costal margin 

 very faintly excised from the base to near the middle, and slightly arched 

 thence to the apex. Posterior much and regularly curved and apex 

 rounded. The costal vein is close to the margin, but only attains it in the 

 apical fourth of the wing. Subcostal obsolete towards the base, nearly 

 straight and attaining the costal margin just before the apex ; discal cell 

 wide and closed : the discal vein gives off two branches to the dorsal 

 margin : the median sends from about the middle of the wing a curved 

 branch to the dorsal margin and proceeds to the end of the cell and thence 

 to the dorsal margin : submedian and internal veins distinct and simple. 



Head roughened (as in Tinea). Antennae little more than half as 

 long as the primaries, tapering from the base to a point at the apex, with a 

 distinct shoal of ciliae on each joint. Tongue ? (concealed by the max- 

 illary palpi, which are folded) ; labial palpi drooping in the dead insect 

 (or perhaps more properly called incurved), without bristles, long enough 

 to reach the eyes if recurved (as I think they are in the living insect), 

 with the second joint as long as the first and third united, the third verti- 

 cally compressed and with the scales roughened. Eyes, globose, moderate; 

 ocelli none.

Maxillary palpi white ; labial palpi white, outer surface of the second 

 joint, except at the apex, and a spot on the outer surface of the third 

 joint brownish ; head whitish gray with some brown scales intermixed ; 

 antennae with alternate white and brown annulations ; thorax and 

 primaries pale or whitish gray, sparsely dusted with brown, a small brown 

 spot on the base of the costa, a smaller one about the basal fourth, and a 

 very large one just behind the middle touching the costa and crossing the 

 fold ; apical portion of the wing brownish, with some whitish and gray
