but in that, the spot is in the centre of the wing, not on the inner 

 margin, and I strongly suspect his insect was a true Adela, but 

 unfortunately the antennae were broken off from the only specimen 

 he had seen, so that we have no certain knowledge on that point. 

 Duponchel's figures of this and Donzelella look rather singular 

 from the paint used for the white spots having turned black. 



I here conclude this imperfect essay, which will, I hope, lead 

 to the investigation of the habits and transformations of our 

 known species, and also to the discovery of new ones. I have not 

 included the continental species in this memoir, although we 

 have several new to us from Herr Mann, as only one of those, 

 Anderschella, Hbn. Tr., is described ; the others will probably be 

 described in Zeller's paper on the Microptera taken in Tuscany 

 by Herr Mann, which paper was commenced in the July number 

 of the Zeitung of the Entomological Society of Stettin.
