NO. 2043. NEW MICROLEPIDOPTERA FROM PANAMA— nUSCK. 33 



Hahitat.—Lsi Chorrera, May (Busck, coll.), and Porto Bello, Panama, 

 October (Cleveland, coll.). 



Type-specimen. — Cat. No. 16693, U.S.N.M. 



Agreeing with the genus in venation and oral characters but rather 

 aberrant in coloration and in the tufts of raised scales in the fore- 

 wings. The scaling is rather loose and easily rubbed so as to obHt- 

 erate part of the ornamentation. 



Named in remembrance of my friend, Mr. G. F. Cleveland, with 

 whom I had many happy collecting trips in the country around 

 Porto Bello. 



Mr. Cleveland secured this species and many others not treated 

 here, in the autumn at the height of the rainy season, in which I 

 personally have had no opportunity to collect.
