 (1902 Can. Ent, 34, p. 259) 



The original description is here quoted. 



"Resembling Burnetii in form, but much larger, as large 

 as Otiocerus. Costal appendage very long; color yellowish; 

 elytra white, with a transverse fuscous band before the 

 middle. Length, 11 mm. to the tip of elytra. 



Vertex but little rounded above, the apex slightly rounder than in 

 Kirkaldyi. Second joint of antennae very large, consisting of a long, 

 flat plate thickest on the margins and studded with fine knobs; 

 elytra very large, venation as in Burnetii nearly, the outer branch 

 of the median nervure straight, the cross nervures at the apices of 

 the elytra in a straight line; costal appendage as long as the second 

 joint of antennae, strap-shaped towards apex, the posterior margin 

 nearly straight, anterior margin sloping off to the base of the costa; 

 the whole appendix curved back across the corium, with the apex 

 on the claval suture. 



Color: pale straw; eyes black; elytra milky at base, a fuscous 

 band at one-third the distance from base, beyond this subhyaline, 

 with the nervures faintly brown as far as the apical nervures. Pos- 

 terior margin of appendage, and sometimes a spot near the outer 

 corner of scutellum, fuscous. 



Described from two females collected at Albion, N. Y., 

 by E. P. Van Duzee." 



THE GENUS MYSIDIA WESTWOOD 



Many of the members of this genus closely resemble 

 certain whitish geometrid moths. They run very swiftly 

 on the upper surface of leaves or when caught in a net, 

 with their wings partially raised. The genus is a tropical 

 one, at least nine species occurring in Central America.
