 Honduras (Dyson). * Type, B.M. 



This species, in the character of its body, recalls the genua 

 Saarita. The genus, as a group, nearly approaches Gymnelia. 



Genus MocHLOPTiCEA, n. gen. PI. XXVII, fig. 15. 

 Grlaucopis (part), Herrich- S chaffer . 



Allied to Oymnelia, but distinguished at a glance from all the

 that the three median branches and the lower radial are all 

 crowded together at the lower extremity of the cell. 



Type, M. acroxantha, Perty.
