Palpi as in Sciiizura,short, stout, porrect, hardly reaching the front, tips of the third joint obtuse, beneath denselyclothed with short .scales, conniving throughout. Male antennie rather broadly pectinated to thedistal third, the branches rather long, stout, each tipped with a tuft of cili;e; in the 9 moderately stout, scales of the prouotum distinct; not crested above; beneath withunusually long hair-like scales, with a longer prosternal tuft arising from beneath the eyes. Fore wings broad, long, and narrow, being a little more than one-third as broad as long;costa nearly straight, but yet more convex than in Schizura; outer margin very long, distinctly. -Veuatiuii of ]iiii-t of hind \\x t Eithij paiyax rosea (Dyar^lel ) MEMOIRS OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES. 189 scalloped; internal anj^le rdiiiided, and a little within tlie nuddle of the ininT niariiin is aprominent tult otdailc scales: outer edge scalloped.

The venation of both wings is in fact just as in Schizura. Hind wings a little morepointed at th
