 ochraceouSj with its anterior margin blackish. Abdomen . 

 witli almost the posterior halves of the segments ochraceous. 

 Legs, rostrum (excluding apex), opercula, and central area of

 outer basal angles of opercula, and the face castaneous. 



Tegmina and wings pale hyaline and talc-like, their bases 

 narrowly ochraceous, marked with fuscous; tegmina with 

 the venation ochraceous or pale fuscous, the costal membrane 

 and inner margin of claval area ochraceous, tlie transverse 

 veins at the bases of second, tliird, and fourth apical areas 

 infuscated, and some irregular fuscous spots or shadings on 

 the longitudinal veins of tlie third, fourth, fifth, and seventh

A striking and uncommonly marked species ; the pale 

 wings and tegmina with their submarginal maculation, the 

 ochraceously fasciated abdomen, and the gibbous costal 

 margin to the radial tegminal area render it easily recog- 

 nizable. 



Masujyha delicata, sp. n. 



Very closely allied to the ])receding species M. ampUataj 

 but diftering by its larger size and much less gibbously 

 produced costal margin to the radial area of the tegmina; 

 the abdomen above is more ochraceous, with a large black 

 basal s])ot, the front of the head is pale castaneous, with two 

 central darker lines, the body is much more uniformly ochra- 

 ceous beneath, and the submarginal spots to tegmina and 

 wings are paler and more obscure.

The two species above described are structurally distinct 

 by the length and shape of the tegmina.
