Lond. 1891, 515, 544 (1892)2. Hab. West Indies-PORTORICO1,2. 110. HYPOCLOPUS, Wlsm. 285. HYPOCLOPUS PARVUS, sp. n. = Ccenogenes pusilla, Wlsm. (partlm) Pr. Z. Soc Lond. 1891, 514, 544 (1892)l. Antennce greyish ochreous. Palpi, 3 recurved to back of thorax; greyish touched with fuscous at the sides, apical joint tipped with ochreous; $ porrect. Head and thorax greyish ochreous intermixed with fuscous. Fore wings pale greyish ochreous, much speckled and blotched with fuscous which is concentrated in three connected patches (one at the end of the cell, one below it, and one at the base), leaving the pale ground-colour more conspicuous in two ovate patches (the first on the middle of the wing, the second beyond it) and in a dorsal patch obtusely angulated upwards before the middle and slightly angulated beyond the middle, a few fuscous specklings along its lower edge; cilia agreeing in colour with the wing. Exp. cd. 3 15*5-17 mm.; 2 21 mm. Hind wings and cilia dull greyish. Abdomen greyish. Legs greyish, tarsi with pale subochreous speckling. Type, 3 Mus. Wlsm.; $ Mus. Gudmann. Hah. West Indies-ST. THOMAS, 18 III-8 IV. (Gudmann, Hedemann) ; DOMINICA X (Point Michell, 29 V.). Eleven specimens. This species varies considerably : in the intermediate form which I have described as the type the dark and pale markings are sharply defined ; in the extreme forms either the dark or the paler colour predominates and tends to efface the pattern. The specimen which I recorded (Pr. Z. Soc. Lond. 1891, 514) from Dominica as Ccenogenes pusilla, Z., was not in good condition, and the reception of better specimens from the same island proves it to be Hypoclopus parvus. M y notes on the structure of " Anaphora pusilla, Z." refer truly to that species, but the additional locality is erroneous, and Ccenogenes pusilla, Z., must be removed from the West Indian list. 111.
