been broken off, or whether they are naturally obsolete. 

 Otherwise the head is in most perfect condition. 



The genera Zelleria and Ocnerostoma are congeneric with 

 this in the neuration of the wings, especially the hinder pair 

 in the latter genus. 



', - Uhft.jP. laticapitella* Head, face and thorax shining tawny- 

 M/o fuscous. Labial palpi dark fuscous. Antenna? fuscous, basal 

 joint tawny-fuscous. Fore-wings dark fuscous, with a rufous 

 tinge, sprinkled with white, especially toward the tip, Avith an 

 indistinct whitish band behind the middle of the wing ; cilia 

 pale rufo-fuscous. Hind-wings grayish-fuscous ; cilia the 

 same. 



Parasia ? Duponchel. 



Fore-wings lanceolate. The subcostal nervure sends three 

 veins to the costa, the first from the middle of the cell, and an 

 apical branch which delivers from its middle a branch to the 

 costa, and is forked before the tip, with one of the branches 

 above and the other beneath it. The discoidal cell is closed, 

 but gives rise to no nervule. The median fan-branched, 

 more separated than in Evagora and all the branches long. 

 Submedian is forked at the base. Hind-wings with the apex 

 produced. The submedian is forked beyond the disced 

 nervure, which gives rise to a disco-central branch. The 

 median is three-branched. 



Head smooth, with loose decumbent scales. Forehead 

 advanced, globose ; face retreating. Ocelli small. Eyes 

 oval, vertically placed, but little visible from the front. 

 Labial palpi rather short, recurved, smooth, with appressed 

 scales ; second joint thick, subclavate ; third joint short, very 

 acuminate. Maxillary palpi short, distinct. Antennas simple, 

 setaceous, one-third less long than the fore-wings. Tongue 

 clothed with scales, scarcely as long as the anterior coxec. 



* Of this I received two specimens from Dr. Clemens; it is an obscure-look- 

 ing insect of doubtful location, reminding one somewhat of Blastobasis i>liyci- 

 della. The exp. al. is 5 lines. H. T. S.
