medial tooth; male forewing (fig. 18), stigma long and slender, R1 
not indicated, RS extended by evenly curved streak, medial vein 
arising at cu-a; terga sharp-edged laterally, densely punctate except 
T-I-II with impunctate medial welt. 
Type: Magdalium cuneifacialis Kimsey. 
Etymology: Magdalium = cylindrical figure (Latin, neuter) 
Discussion. These are relatively large amisegines, which most 
closely resemble Isegama, based on having a scrobal sulcus and 
oblique mesopleural carina, short broad male flagellomeres and the 
forewing medial vein arising at cu-a. However, Magdalium can be 
distinguished by the odd lobular male flagellomeres, long flattened 
pronotum, the absence of a well-defined occipital carina and the 
long compressed body shape. Also, Magdalium has an impunctate 
stripe on the vertex extending between the midocellus and the occi- 
put much as in Cladobethylus.
