 lolea {lole), Pascoe, o-p. cit., iv. 254. 

 Caput mediocre, antice sub-transversum ; tuberibus antenniferis 

 obsoletis. Oculi mediocres, profunde sinuati, supra paulo 

 approximati, lobo superiore minore. Labrum sub-elongatura. 

 Antennce corpore longiores, filiformes, ciliatae ; scapo sub- 

 cylindrico, vel aliquando basi paulo attenuato ; articulo

 Prothorax brevis, capite paulo angustior, in medio linea lon-

 In the Journal of Entomology (i. 354) I have proposed to unite 

 lolea to Serixia, the slight differences in the characters of the few

 James Thomson in his " Systema," however, not only maintains 

 their distinctness, but places them in two different '* groupes.'' 

 The species vary considerably in size and coloration, and in the 

 comparative length of the antennae ; and the head appears to be 

 much larger in some individuals than in others of the same species. 

 They have nearly all a fine silky, mostly pale, pubescence, varying
