516 LORD WALSINGHAM ON THE [NoV. 17, 



marrow-spoon, elongate, scarcely spatulate, with almost parallel ' 

 margins, rounded at the ends ; uncus douhle. 



Legs pale fawn ; hind tarsi faintly spotted. 



Exp. al. 30| millim. 



Hab. West Indies — Cuba. 



Type, S Mus. Stgr. 



I have adopted the specific name from a label placed by Zeller on 

 Dr. Staudinger's specimen. 



Felderia, Wlsm. 



Felderia dimidiella, sp. n. (Plate XLI. fig. 15.) 



Antennce pale fawn-ochreous. 



Palpi umber-brown at the base, pale fawn-ochreous beyond. 



Head and thorax pale fawn-brown. 



Fore wings pale fawn, sprinkled, speckled, and shaded with 

 brownish scales ; a series of dark umber-brown spots — the first small, 

 a little below the costal margin near the base ; the second larger, on 

 the fold before the middle ; the third also large, on the fold beyond 

 the middle ; the fourth at the end of the discal cell, a slight indi- 

 cation of a fifth spot lying parallel with the middle of the apical 

 margin ; cilia very pale fawn. 



Hind wings dingy whitish fawn ; cilia scarcely paler. 



Abdomen dingy whitish fawn. 



Legs whitish fawn ; tarsi unspotted. 



Exp. al. 20 millim. 



Hab. West Indies — Cuba. 



Type, <S Mus. Stgr. 



The pectinations of the antennae are much shorter than in Felderia 

 doeri, Wlsm., the type of the genus. This specimen is labelled in 

 Zeller's handwriting "■ Acrolophus vitellus nicht beschr." It cannot 

 be vitellus, Poey, as the antennae of that species are described as 

 simple.

The type of this species is erroneously recorded by Walker as a 

 male ; it is a female. In the absence of the male, it is impossible to 

 say whether this genus can be regarded as distinct. The palpi are 

 short and porrect ; the fore wings have 12 veins, all separate, and 

 the hind wings 8 veins, all separate. I am inclined to think it is 

 allied to Pseudanaphora arcanella, Clem.
