place it in a position much nearer Dicranoptycha and Rham- 
phidia. The principal generic characters are derived from 
the claws, the structure of the male and female genitalia, and, 
especially, the wing-venation. Unfortunately the tips of the 
antennee are broken and the number of segments cannot be 
accurately determined. 
Amphilimnobia leucopeza, sp. n. 
General coloration dark brown ; legs dark brown, the tarsi 
white; wings with a strong brownish tinge; Se long, cell 
1st My, open. 
Male.—Wing 7:8 mm.

characterization ; Rs long, strongly arcuated or even angu- 
lated and spurred at origin; 7 on Ry, nearly twice its length 
beyond the fork of Rs; +—-m less than one-half the deflection 
of L4,5; petiole of cell 2nd M, approximately as long as this 
cell ; the abortive vein behind Cw distinct.
