J 1922 5 ] CLARK — TWENTY-FIVE NEW SPHINGIDAE 15 



to it. This band narrows costally to a width of 1 mm. on Rl, where it 

 broadens abruptly, and continues to the apex, narrowing again on SC5. 

 The triangular area between this line, Rl, and the distal margin, is irro- 

 rated with pinkish white scales, while the area between Rl and the costal 

 margin is similarly irrorated, and contains within itself a subapical pink- 

 ish patch. Hind wing above dark mummy-brown at base and postmedially. 

 The clearly defined bright yellow band is similar in width and shape to 

 that of M. dohertyi. 



Fore wing beneath, dull brown with pink scaling along the edge of the 

 irregular distal marginal band, which is broadest on R2, where it attains 

 a width of 4 mm., and is irrorated with white. Hind wing beneath, dull 

 brown irrorated with gray. Abdominal area yellow, sharply cut off at 

 anal angle. Three indistinct bands, one antemedian, one postmedian, and 

 one submarginal, are of a darker brown tone. 



Macroglossum haslami sp. nov. 



Al. ant. long, 9, 27 mm. Al. ant. lat., 9, 11 mm. Marg. ext., 9, 

 15 mm. 



Habitat. — Manila, Philippine Islands. One female in coll. B. Preston 

 Clark, taken by my friend Mr. Greville Haslam, and named after him. 



Most nearly resembling M. passalus rectifascia, but differing 

 from it in the following respects. 



The median thoracic stripe is broader in this form, and the area between 

 it and the mesothoracic tegulae is light in color, causing a sharp contrast. 

 The abdominal tufts all are yellow, none white. 



Fore wing above : The portion basad of the antemedian band is so nearly 

 of the same dark tint as to give the impression of a solid basal area. This 

 antemedian band is distinctly convex distally. The area which in M. p. 

 rectifascia extends from the apex along the costal margin 10 mm., is much 

 less marked in this form. A gray distal marginal border, 2 mm. wide at the 

 wing apex, broadens to 3.5 mm. on R2, and then narrows to a point at the 

 hinder angle. 



Hind wing above: The yellow median band is slightly narrower than 

 in M. p. rectifascia.
