Chezala silvestris, n. sp. (silvestris, of the woods). 



<3 , 15-18 mm.; 9> 18-24 mm. Head ochreous-whitish. 

 Palpi whitish ; second joint fuscous except at apex. Antennae

 Abdomen whitish-grey. Legs ochreous-whitish ; anterior pair 

 fuscous. Forewings not dilated, costa moderately arched, 

 apex rounded, termen obliquely rounded ; ochreous-grey-

 cilia grey- whitish. 



Very similar to some species of Eulechria, and as the 

 apex is rounded, and vein 7 terminates just beneath, it might 

 be confused with them. The stalking of veins 2 and 3 is a 

 great help in recognition.
