  This 
  species 
  belongs 
  properly 
  to 
  the 
  genus 
  Ceromitia, 
  

   but 
  the 
  neuration 
  does 
  not 
  appear 
  to 
  be 
  constant 
  ; 
  veins 
  

   8 
  and 
  9 
  of 
  the 
  fore 
  wings 
  being 
  coincident 
  at 
  the 
  base 
  

   in 
  some 
  specimens, 
  although 
  not 
  necessarily 
  in 
  both 
  

   wings 
  ; 
  the 
  separation 
  of 
  veins 
  5 
  and 
  6 
  of 
  hind 
  wings 
  

   is, 
  however, 
  a 
  constant 
  character.
