(Scale line = 2 mm). 62 4' Fig. 62 Insect larvae inside cavity of a plant stem. See p. 241. (Scale line=2 mm) cell length; R3-R5, Mi-Ms and CuA^CuAa originating from the apical part of the cell, the origin of R2 basad of that of CuA2. R5 appears to terminate immediately anterior to the wing apex. Hindwing lanceolate, 4-5 times longer than broad and gradually tapering towards the apex. Sc + Rx well separated from the anterior margin, terminating at midlength of wing opposite the apical end of the discal cell. Ml towards apex, converging on M2 basally and continuing as a fold into the discal cell. M3 originating close to M2 and CuAj. CuP prominent, anal vein present. Stem of CuA well separated from the posterior margin. Holotype. (B). Fig. 53. Dimensions. Length of body 3-6 mm, forewing 3-6 mm and hindwing 3-3 mm. Remarks. The wings resemble those of the extant monotypic genus Triaxomasia (Fig. 54), from which they differ in that the forewing is slightly broader, there is no faint trace of M in the discal cell and the chorda and 2A appear to be stronger veins; the hindwing is narrower basally, and there is no shallow indentation on the anterior margin near the distal end of Sc+ R, as in.
