Figure 125. — Localities for Ageniella accepta. 



Female: Forewing 5.0 to 8.0 mm. long; apical hairless margin of 

 clypeus not widened at the middle, without a median tooth and often 

 its apical edge concave medially; clypeus rather strongly impressed 

 sublaterally, so that the central half of its apical margin is distinctly 

 set off from its lateral quarters; frons almost mat, with fine, very 

 close punctures. 



Ferruginous. Wings pale stramineous, the hind wing sometimes 

 a little darker apically, the forewing with a brown band over the 

 basal vein and nervulus, and its apical 0.35 brown, this brown area 

 including a large subapical crescent-shaped hyaline area. The wing 

 markings average a little heavier than in the similarly colored A. 

 conjiicta.
