dark; hind tibia pale, dark at tip, hind tarsi marked as others. Wings 

 hyaUne, veins mostly black, many of them in the fore wings margined 

 with dark, in apical part and behind very densely so; a large spot 

 under stigma, an interrupted dark streak between subcosta and radius; 

 the spots along cubitus rather larger than the others. In hind wing 

 there is a broad stigmal band and a square costal spot beyond dark. 

 The wings are rather broad at stigmal region, tip (Plate 2, fig. 22) 

 acute; near stigma the radial sector bends up to radius as in other 

 species; three cross-veins before radial sector in fore wing, one in 

 hind wing, twelve or thirteen branches of radial sector, costals not 

 forked except near the stigma, in cubito-anal area several of the cross- 

 veins are crossed. In general the venation is similar to G. radiale. 



Expanse 68 mm. 



I had labeled this as doubtfully 6r. falsiis, but Petersen's recent 

 figure of that species shows this to be distinct in the heavily spotted 

 fore wings, and the large spot beyond stigmal band in the hind wings. 



Panorpidae. 

 Panorpa interrupta, sp. nov. 



Type.~M. C. Z. 10,068. N. Car.: Raleigh, late September. F. 

 Sherman. Three specimens. 



Pale yellowish; antennae (beyond basal joints) black; wings 

 hyaline, a trifle flavescent toward base, marked with black much as 

 in P. venosa and P. virginica. A fairly broad apical band, a narrow 

 stigmal band, broadly interrupted near middle, two subbasal and a 

 basal spot, and a few other smaller marks; veins mostly dark; the 

 subcosta and most of the radius flavescent; subcosta reaching to the 

 stigma. Male abdomen and genitalia very similar to P. virginica; 

 the horn on fifth segment slender, curved and remote from tip as in 

 that species. The uncus is longer than in P. rufcscens; the harpe is 

 not so long as in P. virginica; the clasper has on the upper side a 

 ridge with an apical fringe of hair curving over the uncus; this ridge 

 is similar to but much smaller than in P. virginica. 



Expanse 22 mm. 



In appearance similar to P. rufcscens, but in genital structure re- 

 lated to P. virginica; the broken stigmal band separates it from F. 

 virginica.
