median band— bear, chiefly underneath, many minute hyaline bristles, which are not 

 skown in the figure ; except behind the radius, beyond one-half, there are no defined 

 tracts in the chaetotaxy, but the bristles apically tend to flow to the termen in 

 isocHnal lines. Hind wings three times as long as broad ; length, 1-2 mm., breadth, 

 •4 mm. ; about a dozen minute bristles along the edge of the submarginal cell, before 

 the apex ; ten bristles behind the hooks ; bristles on the apical half extremely 

 minute and weak.

Fore legs : coxae (3:2); femur broadened rather suddenly, ventral edge very 

 straight ; dorsal edge subconcave ; 4-5 of the subventral bristles, at the apex, are 

 stronger ; tibia (4 : 1), the bristles of the dorsal edge stouter ; apical comb of 7, and 

 3 other short spines at the upper apical angle ; tarsal comb of 16-17 spines. Mid 

 legs : coxae (4:3), anteriorly finely raised reticulate, with very many short bristles ; 

 posteriorly bare and minutely transversely striate ; femur, about 9:2; tibia nearly 

 6 : 1 at apex and 12 : 1 in middle, slender on basal two-thirds, then expanded, with 

 9 peg-lilve spines on anterior apical edge ; spur exceeding the first tarsal joint. The 

 first four joints of the tarsus bear 28, 12, 10, and 6 peg-like spines, respectively, and 

 5-6 of the ordinary plantar or lateral bristles of the fifth joint are spinose. Hind 

 coxae (6 : 5) rough, with 4 long bristles above the trochanter ; femur, 4:1; tibia
