Regiata scutra sp. nov. Figs 17-20 Description. Forewing with short costal vein near base in broad costal/subcostal area. Sub- costal vein reaching well beyond middle of wing, subcostal area broad in basal half; subcostal veinlets strongly marked with pits. R almost parallel to Sc for much of its length. M curving strongly towards hind margin before dividing into MA and MP. MA curves forward, MP curves backwards parallel with Cu to wing margin. Anterior branches from MP arise almost at right angles to it. Apical part of median and cubital veins clearly parallel and slightly curved (easily distorted in fossilization). Apex of wing narrower. Anal area very strongly punctate, reticulations clear. Size range: 16-7—21 -5 x 6-3 mm. Holotype. (Fig. 17); Flatstones, Black Ven, Charmouth, Dorset; part and counter- part. Jackson colln.
