NOTE ON THE ILLUSTRATIONS 



Jose Oiticica Filho, of the Division of Insects, National Museum 

 of Brazil, made the photographs for all figures except plate 44, figure 

 7, and plate 46. The photograph of the type of 'Epeiromulona phelina, 

 plate 46, figure 22, and of its genitalia, plate 44, figure 7, was furnished 

 through the courtesy of D. S. Fletcher, of the Department of En- 

 tomology, British Museum (Natural History) . The remaining figures 

 on plate 46 were done by the photographic laboratory of the United 

 States National Museum. In the photographs of the male genitalia, 

 the aedeagi have been removed from the genitalia and shown in lateral 

 view. The left harpes have also been removed and laid flat to show the 

 structure of their inner faces. The remainder of the male genitalia 

 and all female genitalia were photographed from the ventral view. 



No symbols were used on these plates, since the student not already 

 familiar with the structures involved may turn to an earlier paper for 

 explanation (Proc. U. S. Nut. Mus., vol. 100, p. 326, pis. 6, 7, 1950).
