Hab. Kamoku, ]\Iolokai (Fullawaj, July). Also speci- 

 mens of females from lao Valley, Mani (Swezey, August), 

 which I cannot separate from the Molokai, and two female 

 specimens from Haleakala Crater, Maui (Osborn, January; 

 Fullaway, July), which only differ in beino- darker.

$ Frontal carina simple; antennae reaching a little beyond the 

 base of clypeus, first segment slightly less than half the length of 

 second; tegmina reaching nearly to end of abdomen. Light brown 

 or yellowish, slightly darker between carinae, abdomen slightly 

 darker. Tegmina yellowish, veins slightly darker "With minute gran- 

 ules. Anal spines short, stout, wide apart; styles approaching cya- 

 thodis, but "heel" pointed and "toe" rounded, "ankle knob" slight; 

 aedeagus long, tubular, swollen at base, curved downward, four 

 spines along right side and a few on left, a few minute spines near 

 apex.

2 The female I place with this male was taken at the same 

 time. The abdomen is not quite so dark and the infuscation between 

 carinae not so plain. In one specimen there is a slight fuscous spot 

 at end of clavus.

The shape of pygophor and styles as in raillardiae, anal spines 

 stout, medium length, slightly converging; aedeagus with row of 

 spines on right side from a dorso-apical point to a point a little 

 beyond middle near ventral side, a short row along the ventro-apical 

 line and three small spines near apex on left side. 



This description is taken from specimens from Wainiea, 

 Kauai (Swezey, February) feeding on LipocJiaeta. I have 

 seen no males from Oahu, so this may be a distinct species.
