142 Psyche [Sept. -Dec. 
Joints of the antennae, except a few toward base, are plainly 
longer than broad, pronotum often more slender, and in hind 
wings the anal branches not forked 3 
3. Medius of fore wing slopes down to its marginal fork, 
scarcely, if at all, bent; no dark spot at base of the stigma; 
antennae but little longer than wings 4 
Medius before marginal fork usually curves up a little to run 
into the outer gradate series ; if it does not it is at least bent at 
that place; nearly always a dark spot at the base of the stigma; 
antennae often very long; divisory vein often oblique and 
straight 8 
4. Divisory vein ends on the end of third cubital cell and 
about parallel to both medius and cubitus . . Chrysopodes 
Divisory vein ends on the medius, before end of the cell, and 
is often curved 5 
5. Inner series of gradates absent in either hind or both* 
pairs of wings; radius usually has three or more branches to the 
margin beyond end of subcosta; small species with few cells 
and the cubital area broad 6 
Inner series present with at least one gradate in both wings 7 
6. Wing veins and much of body greenish; no inner gradates 
in either wing Chrysopiella 
Wing veins and much of body brownish; inner gradates 
usually present in fore wing Eremochrysa 
7. In male a process between the antennae, in female the 
basal joints of antennae more widely separate than in Chrysopa 
Meleoma 
No process between the antennae, which are rather close to 
each other at base Chrysopa 
8. Divisory vein parallel to each side of the third cubital 
cell; a series of cross-veins connecting some of the radials 
Carcarulla 
Divisory vein oblique 9 
9. A cross-vein before radial sector, usually but five cubital 
cross-veins beyond the divisory cell .... Berkmansus 
No cross-vein before radial sector; usually six or more cu- 
bitals beyond divisory cell 10 
10. With a more or less complete third gradate series be- 
tween the other two Neula 
No intermediate gradate series 11
