EUMELEA* ROSALIA.

PhaL Geometra Rosalia, Cramer, Pap. Ejcot, pi. 368, fig. F. 
We have been unable to refer this finely coloured 
moth to any of the existing genera, and have there- 
fore given it a generic appellation expressive of what 
seems to be its most remarkable feature, namely, 
the great length of the legs and antennee. The former 
are very long and robust, when extended reaching 
to the very apex of the wings, and the antennae, 
which are simple, are of corresponding dimensions. 
The spiral tongue is developed and of some length. 
The wings are pretty ample, the apex simple and 
rounded; their colour, entirely a deep rose red, 
changing with the light, and marked with many 
slender transverse yellowish striae. 
The locality is unknown. 
From £», bene, and ftiXtx, membra.
