LlTHOSIA DORSALIS. 



Mas. Pallidissime ochracea, robusta ; caput fuscum; palpi sub- 

 fimbriati, oblique ascendentes, articulo So longi-conico ; thorax 

 fusco bimaculatus ; abdominis later a dense pilosa ; al&antica* 

 angustce, apice fuscescentes. 



Male. Very pale ochraceous. Body stout. Head brown, 

 large ; hind border pale ochraceous. Palpi brownish on the outer 

 side, with a very short fringe, obliquely ascending, not rising so high 

 as the vertex ; third joint elongate-conical, less than half the length 

 of the second. Antennae setose. Hind tegulae of the thorax with 

 brown disks. Abdomen extending a little beyond the hind wings ; 

 sides densely pilose ; apical tuft small. Legs stout. Wings narrow. 

 Fore wings acute, brownish at the tips ; exterior border convex, 

 rather oblique ; interior border convex along the middle part. 

 Length of the body 5 lines; of the wings 14 lines. 



This species is closely allied to L. apicalis, but may be distin- 

 guished by the colour of the fore part of the thorax and by the longer 

 tore wings.
