BRAZiL-Vassouras (Prov Rio Janeiro, introduced from Antilles), larva and imago, I11.-VL No. 7 is quoted from Mann (No. 8), as I have not been able to find a copy of the work in London, where indeed the title appears to be unknown, and I should be grateful to anyone who could tell me where it was published. The second edition of Hietner cited above appears to have been overlooked ; there is a copy m the British Museum. 84. COMPSOSCHEMA, g. n. (Kop\p6s = elegant; a\vpa = form.) Type, Compsoschema bimarginellum, Wlsm. Antennce slightly longer than the fore wings, somewhat stout, simple; basal joint with a rather large eyecap. Labial palpi slender, dependent; apical joint as long as second. Maxillary palpi obsolete. Haustellum almost obsolete. Head and face smooth Thorax smooth. Fore wings somewhat dilated trom the base outwards, apex depressed, rounded, termen slightly sinuate beneath the apex. Neuration: 9 veins ; 7 and 8 stalked, 7 to costa slightly above apex; 3, 4, and 6 absent. Hind wings (i) elongate-acuminate, evenly attenuated from base; cilia 4. Neuration: 5 veins, without a cell (radial and cubital veins coincident); 3 absent, 4 absent, 6 and 7 coincident. Legs : hind tibia? with somewhat long hairs. Allied to Lyonetla, Hb. 215. COMPSOSCHEMA BIMARGINELLUM, sp. n. Antennce yellowish white, eyecaps snow-white. Palpi white. Head and thorax snow-white. Fore wings shining white, a slender outwardly oblique dorsal streaklet from one-half reaches nearly across the wing; this is dark brown, with a golden sheen along its inner margin; some very faint golden-yellow mottling is visible on the apical half of the wing, and there is a minute black spot at the extreme apex; the long whitish cilia, which give the end of the wing a much widened appearance, are marked by two dark brown hues running through them, the first at the base, the other beyond their middle-these both pass around the apex to the costal cilia and reach well through the tornal cilia. Exp.^ cd. 6 m m. Hind wings and cilia pale greyish. Abdomen brownish above. |
