content: Description (holotype, female). Length, 9.5 mm. Front taller than wide, narrowed above, index 1 :1.4, gray-brown pollinose, the median spot isolated above the upper margins of the paired spots which are separated by less than their own widths and fill the lower corners, touching the ocular and callosity margins broadly; callosity deep mahogany brown grading to more reddish around the antennal fossae, including the space between them, shaped as in the preceding species. Face and cheeks buff-gray pollinose and sparsely creamy pilose, paired brown shadows above the oral margin and an irregular, small sooty spot on the upper face. Antennae and palpi similar in proportion, shape, and color to the preceding but the scapes and plates even thinner in diameter. Thorax and legs colored as in the preceding but the prescutellar gray spots reduced to a narrow, transverse, double crenulate line along the hind margin of the notum and the gray spot on the scutellum smaller, indefinite, and triangular. Pleura pinkish gray, a brown, longitudinal line along the suture behind the fore-coxal bases. Wings brown, also with a paler area behind the costa basad of the stigma, but the first basal cell is predominantly brown with two pale bars, and the round spot just beyond the stigma has a dark center; the apical cross-band is narrow, crescentic, and has a short hook at the hind margin; the spots and rosettes in the outer wing are even more reduced than in the preceding species, and there are no marginal triangles or yellow spots. Abdomen also chocolate brown, no pattern, but the incisures have contrasting gray bands both above and below, that on the first tergite expanding laterally to encompass the whole side of the tergite. Holotype. - A female, Samar, collected in 1927, by C.F.Baker. In United States National Museum. Remarks. - It is possible that intermediate forms taken with further collecting will reduce this to a subspecies of monticola, but at present the differences are in characters of front and wing pattern which habe not shown this much variation in one species of this genus from other areas.
