Costa, subcosta, and radius with apical veins reddish, costal and 

 subcostal cells yellowish, other veins fuscous brown, fuscous in 

 radial cell and less distinctly so in apical cells, rest of tegmina 

 hyaline; wings hyaline with brown veins. 



Ventral edge of pygophor produced in middle into a lanceolate 

 process, which is a little longer than broad; lateral edges an- 

 gularly produced at sides of anal segment, the apex acutely 

 pointed; anal segment longer than broad, slightly narrowed 

 before middle, apex rounded, anus a little beyond middle, a small, 

 elevated ridge immediately basad of anus ; genital styles reaching 

 to end of anal segment, apices rounded, ventral edges arcuately 

 excavate on distal half, dorsal edges slightly angular about 

 middle. 



Length, 3.5 millimeters ; tegmen, 9. 



Female. — Like the male, but with three light marks across 

 radial cell near the first, third, and fourth median sectors. Pre- 

 genital sternite a little broader than long, posterior edge ob- 

 tuse-angularly produced from sides to middle, disk in middle 

 concave.

Genus PEGGIOPSIS Muir 



Peggiopsis MuiR, Bull. Hawaiian Sugar Plant. Assoc, Div. Ent. 

 (1913), 12, 72. 



Most of the species of this genus are easily distinguished 

 from species of Zoraida Kirkaldy by the broad, flat antennae, 

 but a few species have the antennae narrower and not so dis- 

 tinctly flattened. In all such species the wings are rudimentary 

 and do not reach to the end of the abdomen. It is possible that 

 this genus may clash with Peggia Kirkaldy, the type of which 

 I am uncertain about. 



The nine species I place under this genus are distinguished 

 as follows: 



Key to the species of Peggiopsis. 



a\ Wings reaching to the end of abdomen or beyond. 



6\ Antennae longer than head and thorax together; each of four ab- 

 dominal tergites with a row of black spots; anal segment of male 

 long, apex acute, apical third turned ventrad, forming a right angle 



with basal portion dorsimaculata. 



62. Antennae not longer than head and thorax together; abdomen without 

 black spots. 

 c\ Veins of tegmina yellow: apex of male genital style truncate. 



pallida.
