5. Westwoodella clariiiiaculosa species nova. 



Normal position. 



/^^?«a/(?.— Length, 0.65 mm. ; moderate for the genus. Similar to 

 conwsipennis in coloration but agreeing with sanguinea and siibfasciata 

 in having the narrower pattern of fore wing the greatest width of 

 which is about equal to the longest marginal cilia of the fore wing. 

 The substigmal spot of the fore wing is dense and clear cut, crescentric, 

 its cephalic end involving the knob of the stigmal vein ; besides this 

 smoky spot, the part of the fore wing immediately surrounding it is 

 slightly clouded, the cloudiness extending to the caudal wing margin; 

 and proximad there is also a clouded streak across the narrow portion 

 of the wing at the distal bend of the submarginal vein. The discal 

 ciliation of the fore wing is sparse as in sanguinea but distinct not ap- 

 apparently absent, minute, as in that species. The fore wings are 

 somewhat wider than in that species. The posterior wings have one 

 complete longitudinal line of discal cilia (excluding the line of minute 

 cilia at the cephalic edge). The antennae are built as in sanguinea 

 and together with the legs are similarly colored ; the antennal club 

 terminates in a long spine. The mandibles have at least two teeth, 

 both of which are strong and distinct. Proximal joint of posterior 

 tarsi long and slender, distinctly longer than either of the two distal 

 joints. Eyes naked. Cephalic tibis without tibial spurs, the spurs of 

 the posterior tibise single. As with the other species with the excep- 

 tions as noted. 



From a single specimen, ii-inch objective, 1-inch optic,
