ones with an elongated, costal, black spot; legs whitish. Length to tip of 

 closed wings .21 in. Cambridge, June 21, 1835. 



Body blackish, with yellowish white incisures. Head with a pale yellow 

 line beneath each eye; front yellowish white, with black lines; eyes very 

 prominent, globose; antennte shorter than the wings, black; palpi pale 

 cinereous. Wings hyaline, iridescent; superior ones with an elongated fus- 

 cous spot beyond the middle of the anterior margin. Legs pale cinereous, 

 or dirty white, with the apex of the tibiae and the tarsi fuscous. The 

 little cellule near the middle of the anterior edge of the upper wino-s is 

 linear, aftd nmch elongated, and entirely fuscous or opaque. The arrano-e- 

 ment of the nervures near the hinder margin differs also in this insect from 

 that which is found in the other species; the Avings are not so wide, and the 

 eyes are much more prominent and globose. 



It may perhaps hereafter be pi-oper to separate this from the other species 

 under a new generic name. I have seen only two specimens, which were 

 discovered on a fence on the 21st of June, 1835; and the description has 

 been drawn up from these instead of from recent specimens, which may 

 perhaps exlubit characters overlooked in those preserved in my cabinet.

 with numerous large, rounded, tawny spots in rows between the nervures;

The two sexes of this beautiful species were presented to me by the Rev.

 New Hampshire.
