Hagen.] 282 [March 17, 



the most southern part of Calabria, combined with the fact that 

 Zeller collected M. angulatus in Syracuse, Sicily, is in favor of the 

 identity of Costa's species. The figure is too yellow, but it con- 

 tradicts not the supposition, and the description contains nothing 

 which would not apply to M. angulatus. The intersecting longi- 

 tudinal bands of the front wings are not mentioned, but they are 

 often very faint. Costa's specimen and Schneider's have only four 

 sectors. Till the contrary is proved, the identity can be accepted. 

 Brauer, Neur. Europ., p. 29, also refers Costa's species to Micro- 

 mus. 



5. Mieromus navigatorum. 



Micromus navigatorum Brauer, Wien. Z. B. Ges. xvn, 508. 



Long, corp., 5 mm. ; exp. al., 15 mm. ; long. al. ant., 7 mm. ; 

 al. post., 5 mm. 



Unknown to me ; description of Dr. Brauer : — grayish ochreous ; 

 antennae same color, with paler villosity ; prothorax with two pairs 

 of dark spots ; legs pale ; wings hyaline ; front wings ochreous 

 with transverse nebulous fasciae; gradate veins blackish-brown, 

 fumose around. Both series very oblique, parallel with eight ex- 

 ternal and six internal veins ; other veins pale ochreous, alter- 

 nately brown ; seven sectors ; a small brown spot in the basal 

 third ; five to six fumose spots on the hind margin ; hind wings 

 hyaline, veins ochreous ; seven external black gradate veins, four 

 internals ; five sectors. 



Hab. Ovalau, Viti, and Upolu, Samoa, coll. Dr. Graefe. This 

 species somewhat resembles M. angulatus (Brauer), but seems 

 so near M. timidus, that a more detailed description is needed to 

 separate the two species.
