10 IN MEMORIAM. 



It has the form of a small Tinea imella, Hb., with very 

 narrow anterior wings. 



I only possess one male specimen, with a very narrow 

 abdomen, which I bied early in June from dry wood. It 

 ran uncommonly quickly. (1843.) 



Tinea Gliriella, n. sp. Heyden (E. Z. 1865, p. 102). 



Capillis flavo-albidis ; alis anterioribus flavido-canis, 

 maculis nigro-fuscis, margo interior late flavo-albida, 

 vix punctata. 



Exp. al. 6 lin. 



This species is nearly allied to the very variable Tinea 

 Gra7iella, but is certainly distinct. 



The antenna? and palpi are brownish-yellow ; the terminal 

 joint of the palpi paler. The tuft of the head is yellowish- 

 white, generally with a darker spot in the middle. Thorax 

 and abdomen brownish-yellow. Legs yellowish, the tarsi 

 somewhat spotted with darker. 



Anterior wings yellowish-grey, on the costal half rather 

 mixed with brownish ; at the base of the costa is a black- 

 brown spot, but it is not, as in GraneUa, prolonged sideways 

 below. Then almost as in Gj'cinella, on the costa before the 

 middle, is a black-brown spot, a larger one in the middle 

 rather obliquely placed, and 4 or 5 very small ones towards 

 the apex of the wing. A paler yellowish-white space extends 

 from the underside of the small shoulder-spot obliquely to 

 the anal angle. It bears at the base of the wing in the 

 middle a small, very fine, brown longitudinal line, as also 

 a spot below the middle, and one or two before the anal 

 angle. The darker portion is indistinctly spotted with dark 

 towards the apex of the wing, but the broad black spot 

 which in GrnvcUa stands in the middle before the hinder
