460 Prof. Zeller’s Descriptions of Crambina, etc. 
ACIPTILUS DESERTORUM, N, Sp. 
Capite, corpore alisque pallide stramineis, alis anterioribus 
liturd obsoleta fuscescente in fissur4, litura cinerea ciliorum 
dorsalium post fissuram; digiti tertii ciliis posticis exalbi- 
dis. &. | 
Head, body and wings very pale yellow; the anterior wings 
with a faint brownish blotch at the fissure, and a grey blotch in 
the inner marginal cilia, beyond the fissure; the cilia of the hind 
margin of the third digit almost white. ¢. 
In structure, and the entirely unicolorous pale yellow head, 
this is allied to ischnodactylus, but is entirely without black dots, 
having only a very faint brownish spot at the fissure of the ante- 
rior wings, and a grey blotch in the inner marginal cilia beyond 
the fissure. 
From the plains of Jordan. 
AcrptiLtus Sicexiota, Zeller. 
Linnza Entomologica, vi. 401. 
A single specimen from the plains of Jordan, which only shows 
a black scale in the hinder-marginal cilia of the third digit. 
Atucira PALopAcTYLA, Zeller. 
Linnzea Entomologica, vi. 407. 
One specimen from the neighbourhood of Damascus. It is a 
veritable dwarf, the anterior wings being only two lines long, and 
the grey markings are extremely faint.
