GLOSSOPASCHIA, ne^A^ genus. 



Labial palpi smooth, upturned, the second joint reaching vertex, 

 the tliii'd slender, long. Maxillary palpi small, scaly. Tongue pro- 

 jecting about twice the length of the head, downcurved, completely 

 scaled, the scales forming a long fringe beneath. Fore wing with 

 vein 2 from the cell, 3 from the end, 4-5 stalked, 6 from the apex of 

 cell, 7-9 stalked, 10 and 11 on the ceU, free. Hind wing with vein 

 2 from the cell, 3 and 5 from its end, 4 absent, 6 from the apex of 

 cell, 7 anastomosing with 8. 



Type of the genus. — GlossopascJiia csenoses, new species. 



GLOSSOPASCHIA CSENOSES, new species. 



Fore wing narrow, light gray with scattered black irrorations; a 

 black tufted spot below the middle of the cell; a little dot at end; 

 outer line near the margin, dotted, black, slightly outcurved; termen 

 dark-shaded; terminal dots black. Hind wdng soiled white with 

 fuscous veins and margin. Expanse, 15-19 mm.

SulDfamily FH^CITINJE. 

 MYELOIS TRANSITELLA Walker. 



24. Trinidad River, March and June, 1912 (Busck); Alajuelo, 

 April, 1911 (Busck) ; Panama City, April, 1911 (Busck) ; Cabima, May, 

 1911 (Busck); Taboga Island, June, 1911 (Busck); Porto Bello, April. 

 (Busck) and December, 1912 (G. F. Cleveland). 



The larva feeds in the dry cacao pods. None of the specimens 

 agree with Ragonot's definition in having vein 8 of hind wing free. 

 Guiana specimens are the same, and of three before me from Grenada, 

 British West Indies, only one agrees with Ragonot's character, the 

 two having veins 7 and 8 anastomosing nearly to apex. I have no 

 specimens from Haiti, the type locality, but believe the character 

 to be valueless, as the specimens all agree otherwise. 



MYELOIS DECOLOR Zeller. 



2. Porto Bello, April (Busck) and December, 1912 (G. F. Cleve- 

 land). 



MYELOIS POMBRA, new species. 



Pale gray, the veins and discal cross-vein Imed in pale fuscous; 

 lines whitish, rather broad but not contrasted, the inner one far out 

 and straight across the wing, the outer one bent on the stalk of veins 

 4-5; no terminal dots; fringe pale. Hind wing translucent pale gray, 

 paler at base. Expanse, 17 mm.
