maTginal cilia, of the fore wing but much shorter than the greatest width of the hind wing.. 
Mandibles bidentate but a third minute tooth is indicated within but is much shorter. Post- 
marginal vein a little shorter than stigmal. One ring-joint. Parai>sidal furrows complete.

CIIEYSOCITARELLA iioinen nudum. 
This genus heretofore has been poorly characterised. Its antennee are rather short, 
subcompressed, clavate, the club casually appearing 4-jointed, since the second fimicle joint is- 
more or less closely attached to the club. In the genotype, the parapsidal furrows are only 
cephalad, the axilla> advanced but not very much so. The shape of the antennal flagellum is 
the characteristic of the genus. See antca, p. 169. Later, I find the group the same as 
Achrysocharella through connecting forms. See Acliryfiocharclla. 
1. CHRYSOCHARELLA PULCHRA new species. Referred to FJeoclirysocharella Dodd. 
Length, about 1 mm. Abdomen finely scaly like the thorax. Fore wings broad,, 
pyriform. Antea, p. 169. The parapsidal furrows are distinct only for a short distance- 
cephalad. Type re-examined. 
Described from one female captured July 14, 1912. Type specimen on a tag, the head, 
on a slide. 
2. ACHRYSOCHARELLA NIVEIPES new species. 
Female: — Length, 0.80 mm. 
Dark metallic, green, the antenna? and legs- silvery white; last club joint dusky; fore- 
W]ng with an obscure stain from the stigmal knob. Coxa> white, the hind one partly metallic 
outwardly. Terminal spiir of club distinct; fiinicde joint 1 shorter than the pedicel; next two 
joints wider than long. Body uniformly scul])tured, scaly. Mandibles bidentate. 
Male : — Fnknowii. 
Described from two females ca])tured in forest, November 1, 1913 and from a window,.

3. ACHRYSOCHARELLA ASHMEADI new species. 
Female: — Length, 0.75 mm. 
Similar in most respects to iiiveipes, but the mark on the fore wing is more distinct,, 
being a sull’used dusky cross-stripe from the stigmal vein and distal ])art of marginal (in 
niveipcs an obscure patch from the stigmal vein), those wings are distinctly narrower with 
longer marginal fringes (about 14 lines of discal cilia wliere broadest, the longest marginal 
cilia nearly a third of the greatest width; in niveipes about 19 lines, the longest marginal 
cilia about a fourth the greatest width). The funicle joint 1 is sub(|uadrate. Very distinct 
from Ncochrys.ocharclla fasriatipe'nnis which hears a distinct wing marking, the fore wings- 
broad, with about 30 lines of discal cdlia, the marginal cilia short, not a ninth of the greatest 
wing widtii. Besifles, the legs in tliat species are distinctly colored, also the antennte. The 
liitid wings :n fai<(!^otipi^niiW are twice or more the size of those in ashmeadi. Mandibles 
bidentate.
