There appears to be a small lateral tubercle on the side of the meso- 

 thorax near the front at the base of each primary wing. Abdomen: 

 Dark reddish-brown with dark spots on the sides and dorsum, wid- 

 est at the bases of the cornicles. Cornicles: Very short and thick 

 as shown in Fig. 2, E, very hairy, black, length 0.22 mm., width 

 0.38 mm. Legs: Normal in size, all dark except the bases of the 

 femora and the middles of the tibias which are light amber, hairy, 

 hind tibiae distinctly bowed inwardly, first tarsal joint about half 

 the length of the second (Fig. 2, F and Fig. 3, C). Wings: The 

 wings are rather slender, hyaline with dusky amber veins. (Fig. 2, 

 A and Fig. 3, A.) Primary: Medium in size with normal vena-

and narrow with the opposite sides nearly parallel. Stigmal vein 

 wide and distinct at base becoming narrower towards the tip; 

 slightly curved inwardly toward front margin. First and second 

 discoidals distinct, the first straight and the second slightly curved. 

 Third discoidal very indistinct, slightly curved; first fork one-third 

 the distance from the base to the tip; second fork not quite one-half 

 the distance from the first fork to the tip. There are small faintly 

 clouded areas at the tips of the stigmal and discoidal veins as shown 

 In the illustrations. Length, 3.6 mm.; width, at the tip of the sec- 

 ond discoidal, 1.2 mm. Secondary : All of the veins are distinct 

 and dark amber in color. Subcostal slightly bent as shown in the 

 drawings. Discoidals with bases quite far apart, the first arising 

 about one-fifth and the second two-thirds the distance from the base 

 to the tip of the subcostal. There are also small dusky areas at the 

 tips of these veins. Length 2.3 mm.; width near the middle, 0.7 

 mm. Cauda: Dark or nearly black around the margins, short,
