 1884, by the late Mr. J. H. Leech, but did not myself meet with 

 this species, which has not been recorded from the Canaries.

112. (2336-1) GLYPHIPTERYX FORTUNATELLA, sp. 11. 

 (Plate LII. fig. 18.) 



Antennae bronzy fuscous. Palpi white, spotted with fuscous 

 along their outer sides. Head cupreous. Thorax bronzy fuscous. 

 For ew ings bronzy fuscous, blending to brownish cupreous beyond 

 the middle-; with five distinct white costal streaks, the first, about 

 the middle of the costa, tending obliquely outward, longer than 

 the second, which is a little beyond it, also oblique, but not 

 parallel, tending rather to converge ; after a space, at least equal 

 to that which divides the first pair of streaks on the costa, there 

 follows a series of three shorter streaks, their points slightly 

 converging in the direction of a short, white, curved, terminal 

 incision below the apex; beyond these the cilia form a sharply 

 uncate apex, owing to the outer extremities of those below it 

 bt-ing pure white, while their basal halves are bronzy jn-y 

 surrounding a black apical spot; the whitened cilia, after con-
