TiRATHABA CHLOROSEMA, n. Sp. 



Female, 30 mm. Head, palpi, antennae, and thorax pale 

 flesh color, palpi imperfect. Abdomen ochreoiis-yellow, 

 fleshy-white beneath. Legis fleshy-white. Forewings 



elongate, moderate, costa gently arched, termen nearly 

 straight ; flesh color, fuscous tinged ; a dull, dark greenish 

 mark below costa at one-fourth ; a large similar-colored patch, 

 somewhat triangular shaped, in a direct line beyond, and two 

 smaller ones, somewhat confluent still further beyond, but in a 

 direct line with others ; an interrupted line along termen and 

 apical fourth of costia ; cilia fleshy-ochreous. Hindwings with 

 apex slightly prominent; shining ochreous-yellow, becoming 

 fuscous-tinged around apex, and narrowly along termen ; cilia 

 ochreo'us-grey, darker at base. 



This insect agrees fairly well with the characters of rufivena. 

 Walk., but the palpi, being damaged, it may not be the cor- 

 rect generic location. It is not unlike that insect, but is 

 quite distinct by the absence of scarlet neural streaks, and ap- 

 parently shorter palpi.
