section of R x with the corresponding appearance of vein R t 

 ending in vein R 2 as in most Cylindrotominae, and the position 

 of the basal deflection of <X near the outer end of cell 1st M 2 . 

 The valves of the ovipositor in the present species are very 

 long and slender, but not so excessively so as in the genotype. 

 Trentepohlia (Trentepohlia) pulchripennis sp. nov. 



Head dark brown, the anterior part of the vertex obscure 

 yellow; antenna? dark brown; mesonotum light yellow, the post- 

 notum dark brown ; pleura broadly dark brown ; wings whitish 

 hyaline with three conspicuous brown crossbands variegated 

 with white spots. 



Male. — Length, 5.5 millimeters; wing, 5.6. 



Female.— Length, 6 millimeters; wing, 5.3. 



Rostrum and palpi dark brown ; mouth parts obscure yellow. 

 Antennae dark brown, the basal flagellar segments feebly bi- 

 colorous, the bases paler than the remainder of each segment. 

 Head dark brown, the anterior part of the vertex obscure 

 yellow. 



Pronotum brownish black. Mesonotal praescutum light yel- 

 low, unmarked; scutum and scutellum obscure brownish yellow; 

 postnotum dark brown with a small, obscure yellow, median 

 spot before the caudal margin. Pleura dark brown, the ster- 

 num and the dorsal pleurites obscure yellow. Halteres yellow, 

 the knobs dark brown. Legs with the fore coxae brown; hind 

 coxae yellow, brown basally; remainder of the legs obscure 

 yellow; no conspicuous armature on femora or tibiae. Wings 

 whitish hyaline with a very heavy dark brown pattern; base 

 pale; a basal brown band across the wing, from just beyond 

 h, including almost all of cell 2d A; a very broad brown band 

 at the level of the origin of Rs, extending from before Rs to 

 just beyond the tip of Sc lf including cells C, Sc, 1st R x (the 

 latter with a pale spot in the male), the outer ends of cells R 

 and M except large white blotches; in cells Cu and 1st A the 

 band is much paler, grayish; remainder of the cord and 

 the base of cell R 3 conspicuously darkened; the apical band is 

 entirely separate from the middle band, including the distal 

 two-thirds of cell 2d R„ all of cell R 2 except an oval spot near 

 the tip of R 2 and the extreme apex; the distal two-thirds of 

 cell R 3 except the extreme apex; all of cell R 5 except an oval 

 spot in the base and the extreme apex; outer two-thirds of 

 cell M 2 darkened ; outer angle of cell Cu r slightly paler brown ; 

 veins dark brown in the infuscated areas, yellowish elsewhere.
