Psyche 
[September 
away. No. 5121, a female, with the left wings and complete 
body (including ovipositor) well preserved. 
This insect has the characteristics of an inocelliid, in- 
cluding the absence of ocelli and the pterostigmal crossvein 
and the presence of the forked MP2 and the rectangular 
head. Its assignment to Fibla is based on the nature of the 
basal piece of MA in the hind wing, as contrasted to that 
in Inocellia (see, for example, figure 2). 
Genus Inocellia Schneider 
This genus is widely distributed, mainly in the holarctic 
realm, but it includes relatively few species. Extinct rep- 
resentatives have not previously been known.
