caudate. Under side pale fuscous; fore wing, costal area black 
barred with white, some basal white mottlings, submarginal spots 
more distinct than on the upper side; hind wing, some basal 
white spots, one below the first subcostal nervule, another just 
below the cell, the subdiscal series very indistinct, the sub- 
marginal series of large spots distinct, a marginal mottled band 
of transverse streaks ‘far more pronounced than on the upper

The nearest ally of the species appears to be Z. lutescens (Butl.). 
CoLEoPTERA LonGaicornta, by C. J. GAHAN. 
ZELOTA, gen. nov. (Jesosinarum). 
Head deeply concave between the divergent antenniferous 
tubers; front slightly convex, narrowed between the eyes; genx 
long pad es swollen ; eyes divided, rather finely faceted 
Antenne of the male scarcely longer than the body ; scape stout, 
subclavate, furnished at its apex with a short spine behind and a 
narrow cicatrix in front, the latter completely bounded by a 
projecting rim; third joint slender, slightly curved, nearly twice 
as long as the first or fourth, armed at the apex with a sharp 
spine; 5th to 11th joints very short, together scarcely longer 
than the 4th; last five or six joints thickly fringed with long 
hairs underneath, the remaining joints being sparsely ciliate. 
Prothorax transverse, rounded and unarmed at the sides. Meso- 
notum without stridulating area, arcuately emarginate in front. 
Elytra but little longer than their conjoined width, prominent es 
the shoulders, br oadly rounded at the apex ; Been furnished ¢ 
little behind the base with a very prominent ridge, saeianted 
by a tuft of long hairs tapering to a point in imitation of a spine. 
Prosternum strongly arched, almost vertically sloped behind. 
Mesosternum short and horizontal behind, subvertical in front. 
Legs subequal in length; femora fusiform; middle tibiz without 
notch on outer margin; claws of tarsi divergent. 
This new genus comes near Cacia (Pase. ) i in the group or sub- 
family Mesosine ; andin the same section with it should be placed 
the genera Planodes (Newm.) and Calymmophis (Thoms.), which 
Lacordaire, on insufficient grounds, withdrew from the Mesosine, 
assigning them a place in his “groupe” Monohammides. The 
genus Hreis (Pasc.), which was treated by him in the same way, 
should also be restored to the J/esosine, finding a place near the 
genus Mesosa.
