This species, which is found over a large part of South 

 America, has yellowish-hyaline wings with black borders, and 

 a black streak at the end of the cell of the fore-wings, which 

 expand about an inch and a half. The body is black, with 

 golden spots ; and the abdominal appendage is as long or 

 longer than the rest of the body. 



SUB-FAMILY IX. ANTICHLORIN^. 



The Antichlorince are a small group of Moths, with long nar- 

 row opaque wings, and rather small and short bodies. They 

 are all American, and are more uniformly coloured than most 

 of the allied Families.

These are slender-bodied Moths, mostly of a green colour, 

 ^Ith the abdomen spotted with white. The antennae are rather 

 strongly pectinated. The fore-wings are rather pointed, and 

 obtusely angulated behind ; and the hind-wings are obliquely 

 truncated, and slightly angular at the tips, with the hind-margin 

 a little sinuated.
