Livia marginata sp. nov. 



A single male specimen collected at Colebrook, Connecticut, 

 21st of July, 1905, by H. L. Viereck apparently needs a name. The 

 species is probably close to maculipennis and the cauda resembles 

 that of that species. The head as is evinced by the front margin 

 and the basal segments of the antennae is more like that of vernalis. 

 The wing is of the same general type as maculi'pennis though it is 

 conspicuously different in that it lacks the dark spots on the veins. 

 The deep smoky band at the wing tip extends in the specimen at 

 hand from Cu^ to R^ which as will be seen by referring to the 

 figures is different from the space darkened in maculipennis. Lot 

 1440 Sub 2. Figs, 3 and 7 show the wing and head of this species.
