are streaked with lead color, as are also veins 5 and 6 opposite the cell. The 

 paler dentate fringes show a darker basal line. Hind wings orange fuscous, 

 nearly concolorous with four wings; beneath the general color is a little 

 brighter than above, on the hind wings a discal dot and line ; on the primaries 

 double faint exterior lines are perceivable with some whitish scales on costa 

 and following the outer line at its inception. Body parts concolorous with the 

 wings.

(16.) Hadena marina^ Grote. 



Allied to H. miselioides, Ouen., but the body is much stouter and on the 

 primaries the reniform is only half the size, while the transverse posterior 

 line is regularly lunulated. Dark green over black. Ordinary spots white 

 with green centers, moderate, subequal ; the orbicular oblique, the reniform 

 erect, slightly medially constricted. Median lines black, approaching at sub- 

 median fold where the median space is black, the t. a. line waved, the t. p. line 

 interspaceally lunulate, the veins beyond marked with black. Subterminal 

 line brought near the margin, picked out by whitish scales more continuously 

 above internal angle. Terminal black marks coarse and distinct, fringes dark, 

 with a black line. Hind wings fuscous with terminal dark line and faint indi- 

 cations of two transverse shade lines ; beneath paler, irrorate, with a large 

 blackish discal mark and exterior transverse line. Thorax dark mossy green 

 like the primaries; abdomen like hind wings; beneath blackish fuscous. 

 Head rather small ; eyes naked ; maxillae pale testaceous.

Zosteropoda,^* n. g. 



A singular genus with narrow wings and linear body parts recalling, in its 

 colors, Xanthia, but with extraordinarily tufted middle and hind legs. The 

 antennae ( $ ) are long and pubescent with two longer setae on each joint. 

 The eyes are naked. The maxillae long and stout. The palpi long, exceeding 

 the front, with rather long and prominent terminal joint. The fore wings are 

 narrow, of equal width, with parallel margins and slightly produced apices. 

 The hind wings show a singular fringing of longer scales above, along the 

 internal, median and subcostal nervures. The middle and hind tibiae are 

 thickly tufted, especially the latter, which show an inwardly projecting lengthy 

 and discolorous tuft. The abdomen is pointed terminally, without dorsal tufts, 

 is narrow and exceeds the hind wings in length. In the shape of the prima- 

 ries and by the tufted legs, a relationship with Ileliophila pseudargyria is 

 evidenced.
