Holotype female, Colombia (Baker collection), and one female, 
‘““Huascaray”’, Peru, September 21, 1911 (C. H. T. Townsend) (USNM). One 
female, 25 miles southwest of Mocoa, Narifio, Colombia, 2080 m., March 3, 
1955 (E. I. Schlinger and E. S. Ross) (CAS). 
T. arcuata, n. sp., is probably most closely related to T. fusca (Walker) from 
which it differs in its much less extensive apical castaneous forewing area, its 
anteapical elevated area of the female abdominal sternum VII (depressed in 
fusca) and in the form of the bases of the first valvulae of the ovipositor, which 
are unique in the genus.

ocelli; clypellus with contour of lower portion continuing profile of clypeus or 
curving more posteriorly in apical portion. Pronotal disk with transverse

with posterior margin gradually narrowed in apical third, apex truncate and 
slightly emarginate, disk narrowly depressed in middle two-thirds. Ovipositor 
with bases of first valvulae divergent at an angle of 180° in ventral view, their 
lateral margins oblique, with an arcuate slight lobe near median line on each 
valvula. 
Color tan to sordid tan (crown and a narrow transverse anterior pronotal 
stripe bright yellow in one specimen), with a pair of castaneous diagonal ob- 
lique markings at apex of each forewing, bordering the area of the bases of 
apical cells, which is concolorous with remainder of dorsum; face black, dor- 
sal half of clypeus, a spot under each eye and occasionally several narrow ir-

tonio, ‘‘Paraguay”’ [may be an error for Paragua, Venezuela] (MMB). Five
