GRACILLARIA. 
5. Gracillaria (Coriscium ?) albinatella. N. sp. 
Second joint of the labial palpi with a distinct tuft at the apex beneath. 
Head and palpi silvery white. Second joint of the labial palpi brownish- 
gray, except at the tip. Antennae, thorax and anterior wings pale brown- 
ish-gray, in some lights silvery or golden. Thorax with a longitudinal 
median white streak produced gradually, widening along the dorsal margin 
of the anterior wings to the basal third, when it is intersected by a some- 
what oblique costal white streak. Another oblique costal white streak 
about the basal fourth ; a third one longer and narrower, situated beyond 
the middle of the costa, and a fourth and large one near the apex, and 
extending into the ciliae. Opposite the space between the second and 
third costal streaks is a large white triangular dorsal spot with its internal 
margin convex. Each of the costal and dorsal streaks is dark margined 
on both sides and around the apex. In the apex behind the costo-apical 
white spot is a curved golden-brown streak bordered behind by a brilliant 
white streak on the dorso-apical margin. Ciliae white, stained at the 
extreme tip with fuscous, with a rather wide, short, reddish-golden, hinder 
marginal line at the base of the apical ciliae, and three or four minute 
fuscous spots in the ciliae beyond it. Posterior wings bluish smoky. 
Legs golden-brown, spotted and streaked with white. Tarsi white, annu- 
late with brown ; posterior tibiae white. Alar ex. scarcely 74 inch. Ken-

the outer surface of the second joint, and one on the third, brown. Vertex 
white, suffused with brownish in front, and with a blackish patch at the 
base of the antennae, which are dark brown. ‘Thorax and dorsal portion 
of the wings to the ciliae, white; costal portion blackish-brown ; its line 
of junction with the white portion fwéce indented or scalloped towards the 
fold. Five costal white streaks, the first about the middle of the costa, 
curving backwards, long, and narrowed towards its apex, sometimes
