162 >IANDIBUI.AT.A. TRICHOPTERA. 



Genus V.— TINODES, Leach MSS. 



Antenna Bomewhat remote, shorter than the wings, slender, the basal joint 

 slightly (thickened : palpi similar in the sexes, maxillary long, a little 

 pubescent, with the terminal joint considerably longer, and more slender, 

 than the preceding one : head transverse : eyes globose, lateral : thorax 

 slender : wings narrow ; anterior elongate-elliptic, with two small discoidal 

 areolets, and four furcate nervures on the posterior margin, and in the 

 males with a depressed, shining, membranous spot at the base : abdomen 

 short, obtuse in the male, horny and acute at the tip in the female : legs 

 slender ; anterior iibice with two very short spurs at the apex ; intermediate 

 with a pair of long ones towards the base, and another at the tip ; hinder 

 ones with a pair near the apex, and a second pair at the apex itself; inter- 



• mediate tibise and tarsi rarely dilated in the females. 



This genus closely resembles the foregoing, but the posterior wings 

 are destitute of a discoidal areolet, and the anterior pair have, in 

 addition to the lozenge-shaped one, towards the apex of the disc, an 

 elongate-pentagonal one between it and the anal angle ; they are 

 likewise furnished with a rounded membranous spot towards the base, 

 which is not, however, raised as in Glossosoma : the legs are slender 

 in both sexes, and the abdomen of the male is not armed with horny 

 appendages beneath ; the basal joint of the antennae is rather small, 

 the terminal joint of the palpi considerably longer than the pre- 

 ceding, &c. 



A. Anterior wings with the nervures distinct, discoidal areolet closed; (inter- 

 mediate tibice and tarsi not dilated in the females). 



Sp. 1. pallescens. Pallide ochraceo-fulvus, ahdomine saturatiore apice pallida, 

 pedibus ochraceis, alis anticis ochraceo-Jiavis, nervis pallidis. (Long. corp. 

 24 lin.; Exp. Alar. 6—7 lin.) 



Ti. pallescens. Steph. Catal. 316. No. 3565. 



Pale tawny-ochreous : eyes fuscous ; head clothed with a griseous down ; 

 antennfE pale, faintly annulated with dull ochreous ; abdomen brown on the 

 back at the base, the apex pale ; legs pale ochreous ; wings iridescent, pale 

 ochreous yellow, very sparingly clothed with short golden hairs ; cilia pale 

 ochreous yellow ; nervures of all pale. 



Found, occasionally, near London, in June. 



Sp. 2. flaviceps. Ochraceus, thorace abdomineque supra schistaceis, antennis 

 hrunneis, pedibus cnpiteque ochraceo-flavis. (Long. corp. 2J lin. ; Exp. Alar. 

 7—8 lin.)
