sides; legs yellowish or light brown, fuscous at apex of femora and 

 base of tibiae; abdominal tergites and phygophor brown, sternites 

 dirty white. Tegmina slightly opaque, milky, veins light with dis- 

 tinct dark brown granules somewhat irregular on apical portion, a 

 fuscous band from costal margin near base to junction of claval 

 veins and then to beyond middle of claval margin where there is a 

 darker mark, the basal border of the band fairly well defined but 

 the apical border fading out irregularly; a dark mark at contact 

 between radius and media, and from median cross-vein to apex, more 

 or less indefinite; wings whitish with light veins. The opaque, milky 

 appearance of tegmina and wings due to a waxy secretion and can be 

 removed with chloroform. 



Length 3 mm.; tegmen 3.4 mm. 



$ Lighter in color than the male. The band across tegmen is 

 sometimes nearly obsolete, even in males, and the mesonotum be- 

 tween the carinae hardly darker than the sides.

This s])('oies was ()ri<>inally described from one female in 

 had eoiidition from Moh)kai. The present specimens ap])ear 

 to me to he more distinctly marked and may prove to he dis- 

 tinct, hilt until male specimens from Molokai can he procnred 

 and the genitalia examined I consider it better to place them 

 under the same name. This sjiecies comes near to N. ferrj/i 

 and .V. hohcac.
