No. 7 is quoted from Mann (No. 8), as I have not been able to 

 find a copy of the work in London, where indeed the title appears 

 to be unknown, and I should be grateful to anyone who could tell 

 me where it was published. The second edition of Nietner cited 

 above appears to have been overlooked ; there is a copy in the 

 British Museum.

Type, Compsoschema bimarginellum, Wlsm. 



Antenna; slightly longer than the fore wings, somewhat stout, 

 simple ; basal joint with a rather large eyecap. Labial palpi 

 slender, dependent; apical joint as long as second. Maxillary 

 palpi obsolete. Haustellum almost obsolete. Head and face 

 smooth. Thorax smooth. Fore wings somewhat dilated from 

 the base outwards, apex depressed, rounded, termen slightly 

 sinuate beneath the apex. Neuration . : '9 veins ; 7 and 8 stalked, 

 7 to costa slightly above apex ; 3, 4, and 6 absent. Hind icings 

 (g) elongate-acuminate, evenly attenuated from base; cilia 4.

215. Compsoschema bimarginellum, sp. n. 



Antenna yellowish white, eyecaps snow-white. Palpi white. 

 Head and thorax snow-white. Fore wings shining white, a slender 

 outw r ardly oblique dorsal streaklet from one-half reaches nearly 

 across the wing ; this is dark brown, with a golden sheen along 

 its inner margin ; some very faint golden-yellow mottling is 

 visible on the apical half of the wing, and there is a minute black 

 spot at the extreme apex ; the long whitish cilia, which give the 

 end of the wing a much widened appearance, are marked by two 

 dark brown lines running through them, the first at the base, the 

 other beyond their middle — these both pass around the apex to the 

 costal cilia and reach well through the tornal cilia. Exp. al. 6 mm. 

 Hind wings and cilia pale greyish. Abdomen brownish above.
