reaching beyond their denticles. Penis partly protruded, the genitalia there- 

 fore not readily examined, but apparently similar. Color of the veins at base 

 of the wings darker, perhaps faded. Veins in the basal band of the hind wings 

 brown, not yellow; the pale tract along the anal margin of these wings not 

 obscurely yellowish, but uncolored and narrower (three cells at most). Front 

 wings with eleven antecubitals, n (right) 10 (left) postcubitals. 



Dimensions: Pterostigma of front wings 2% mm., of hind wings 1% mm. 

 Total length 49 mm.; abdomen 32 mm.; hind wing 40 mm. 



I still retain this provisional name for the two males from 

 Baja California.

I have studied Dr. Karsch's type, from Brazil, in the 

 Museum fur Naturkunde, Berlin. I must plead guilty to 

 having overlooked his description when writing on this 

 species. The statement "der vierte Ring mit einer Quer- 

 kante versehen" is erroneous, as such does not exist in the 

 type, nor in mine. The type has the frons red, not "gelb." 

 I have seen three males and one female of this species 

 from Merida in the Vienna Museum, and in the Museum 

 of Comparative Zoology at Cambridge are two males and 

 one female from Arizona and one male from Texas. 



39. Cannacria furcata Hagen.

I gave as a character distinguishing furcata from Batesh 

 Kirby that the superior appendages of the male Batesii had 

 no inferior tooth, basing this statement on Mr. Kirby's figure. 

 An examination of the types in the British Museum showed 

 this to be false and that such a tooth does exist. The black 

 dorsal band on 3 or 4-9, however, distinguishes Batesh 

 from furcata, and causes it to resemble gravida Calv.
