genera Acrolophus and Anaphora. 155 



America. A specimen sent to me for examination some 

 years ago by Prof. Fernald under the name Anaphora 

 mortipennella, Grote, greatly resembled it in structure ; 

 the apical vein was forked, which is not the case 

 with specimens in Grote's collection at the British 

 Museum ; these I think may be more correctly regarded 

 as the types of that species. 



Canogenes perrensella, Wlsm. (PL VII., figs. X, X a). 



Labial palpi dull whitish, recurved over the thorax, touched 

 with fuscous on the outer sides at the extreme base. Antenna: 

 luteous. serrated on both sides and pilose. Head, thorax, unci fore 

 wings dull whitish, the latter smeared with dark fuscous at the 

 base of the costal margin with two patches of fuscous scales, the 

 one at the commencement of the outer third of the fold, the other 

 less conspicuous on the outer end of the cell ; the surface of the 

 fore wings is more or less sprinkled with short lines of fuscous 

 scales, especially along their costal and apical portions- Hind 

 wings very pale brownish fuscous. Abdomen the same; the 

 lateral claspers are slender, slightly dilated posteriorly, obliquely 

 terminated, the uncus single, bent over, not angulated. Exp. al.

Type. Anaphora popeanella, Clem. 

 Dr. Clemens thus described the genus Anaphora : — 

 "Head hairy, concealed by the labial palpi in the 3 , free in the 

 $> . Ocelli none. Eyes small. Antenna? but little longer than 

 the thorax, serrated beneath, with the ends of the articles finely 

 ciliated. .Maxillary palpi moderately long, scaly, and three- 

 jointed in both 3 and J . Labial palpi in the 3 * greatly developed, 

 ascending and thrown back on the dorsum of the thorax, which 

 they equal in length ; the first article scaly, arctate and equal, to 

 the superior margin of the eyes, and the two succeeding ones 

 equal and furnished with abundant spreading hairs ; in the J short, 

 nut ascending above the eyes, articles nearly equal, the first and
