  the

   as 
  well 
  as 
  the

  blackish 
  and 
  the

   and

  The

   uudeipnrts 
  of 
  the 
  head 
  and 
  thorax, 
  tegulae, 
  wings, 
  and 
  legs 
  is 
  as

   angelicus. 
  

  

  Male. 
  — 
  Length 
  0.8 
  mm. 
  The 
  single 
  male 
  specimen 
  available 
  for 
  

   study 
  has 
  the 
  antennal 
  pedicel, 
  first 
  funicular 
  segment, 
  and 
  the 
  entire 
  

   club 
  white, 
  the 
  remainder 
  of 
  antenna 
  black. 
  In 
  angelicus 
  the 
  pedicel 
  

   is 
  brownish, 
  the 
  first 
  two 
  segments 
  of 
  the 
  funicle 
  white, 
  and 
  the 
  club 
  

   mostly 
  white 
  but 
  with 
  its 
  base 
  narrowly 
  blackish. 
  Otherwise 
  I 
  can 
  see 
  

   no 
  differences. 
  

  

  In 
  both 
  angelicus 
  and 
  ahutrvMis 
  the 
  f 
  rontovertex 
  is 
  densely 
  and 
  very 
  

   finely 
  alveolately 
  sculptured, 
  the 
  alveoli 
  very 
  minute 
  and 
  discernible 
  as 
  

   such 
  only 
  under 
  high 
  magnification. 
  This 
  sculpture 
  is 
  very 
  similar 
  to 
  

   tliat 
  found 
  in 
  alvcolatifronx, 
  new 
  species, 
  described 
  beyond, 
  but 
  in 
  that 
  

   species 
  the 
  aveoli 
  are 
  coarser 
  and 
  more 
  distinct, 
  the 
  frontovertex 
  is 
  

   broader 
  and 
  shorter, 
  and 
  the 
  ocelli 
  are 
  arranged 
  in 
  an 
  equilateral 
  

   instead 
  of 
  a 
  distinctly 
  acute 
  triangle.

  The 
  description 
  of 
  orientalis 
  Ferriere 
  fits 
  this 
  species 
  in 
  many 
  par- 
  

   ticulars 
  but 
  differs 
  in 
  respect 
  to 
  the 
  ocellar 
  triangle 
  and 
  the 
  speculum 
  

   of 
  the 
  wing. 
  In 
  ornentali-s 
  the 
  ocellar 
  triangle 
  is 
  said 
  to 
  be 
  acute, 
  "the 
  

   hind 
  ocelli 
  half 
  as 
  far 
  from 
  each 
  other 
  as 
  from 
  tlie 
  front 
  ocellus," 
  and 
  

   the 
  wing 
  is 
  said 
  to 
  have 
  "the 
  hairle.ss 
  streak 
  interrupted 
  below
