adjoining; palpi pale calif ornica Coq. 
Cheeks reddish, usually rather broadly; last joint of 
palpi black comanche Bks. 
Chrysopa nahoa sp. now 
Figures 18, 21 
Green; face with two maroon bands; one from just be- 
low eyes and across clypeus, the other just below anten- 
nas, this one has an extension from the middle between 
the antennas to vertex where it divides and extends later- 
ally as a narrow streak just above antennal sockets to the 
eyes ; the median lobe of vertex has two short parallel 
red streaks, and there is also a slender red line close to 
each eye ; palpi partly black ; antennae pale, the basal 
joint rather more red at tip. Pronotum pale in middle 
and each side with a broad maroon stripe ; the meso- and 
metanotum are pale in middle and broadly pale reddish 
on the lateral lobes ; the abdomen has a narrow maroon 
stripe on each side. The pronotum is almost as long as 
broad behind, and about one-third narrowed in front. 
In the fore wing the subcosta is black to beyond the 
divisory cell, and many costals dark at one end; the first 
and second anal veins are also dark (maroon), and their 
branches' are dark on base; elsewhere the venation (in- 
cluding gradates) is largely greenish; the costal area is 
not as broad as the radial area; the divisory cell ends 
beyond cross-vein, both sides convex; there are nine cubi- 
tals beyond end of divisory cell. In fore wing there are 
eight outer and seven inner gradates, in parallel rows, 
inner scarcely nearer to outer than to the radial sector, 
the first four of inner series disjoints the sectorals a 
little ; in the hind wing there are seven gradates in each 
row, parallel, and the inner toward end nearer to radial 
sector than to outer row. The radial area is only a 
little broader than the costal area, the costals numerous, 
twenty-five before the stigma, beyond the last there are 
none in stigmal area, but six in the subcostal area. The 
cubital area is about two thirds of the marginal area. 
In hind wing the costal cells are much longer than high. 
The hairs on all veins are rather short.
