Genus Grabhamia. 245 
antepenultimate ; proboscis deep brown, with a narrow pale band 
on the apical half ; antennae brown, with narrow grey bands 
and flaxen brown plumes. 
Thorax deep brown, with scattered golden narrow-curved 
scales ; pleurae brown, with white scales; metanotum chestnut- 
brown. 
Abdomen deep brown, with apical triangular bands of creamy- 
grey scales, broken in the middle; the base of the segments 
show two bare patches, which appear pale, owing to the shiny 
surface of the integument catching the light. 
Legs with the metatarsi and tarsi with narrow white basal 
bands, except the last two joints of the fore and mid legs ; femora 
with a white ring near the apex; tibiae spotted ; fore ungues 
unequal, the larger biserrated, the smaller uniserrated ; mid also 
unequal, the larger with a small tooth, smaller simple ; hind claws 
equal. 
Wings with the first sub-marginal cell smaller than the second 
posterior cell, both short; posterior cross-vein longer than the 
mid, and nearly twice its own length distant. 
The genitalia are well defined, the claspers (fig. 127) being 
short and sickle-shaped. 
Length.—5°5 mm. 
Notes.—Eggs laid singly, not in rafts (Grabham). This species 
I originally described as a Oulew, but it must be removed to

Wing of Grabhamia Jamaicensis. 2. Theobald, 
a new genus. The scales on the wings differ from typical 
Taeniorhynchus in the region of the second posterior cell and 
its stem and elsewhere, and so cannot be included in that genus.
