 /•' raria. 



Ellopia basiaria Walk., List, xxvi, 1508, is Gueneria basiata!. 



Ellopia subprivata Walk.. List, xxvi, 1509. This is a much-rubbed Epione 

 sinuaria, as labeled by Walker. 



Ellopia incoloraria Walk., List, xxvi, 1509. This species is Gueneria 

 basiata !. 



Ellopia deplanaria Walk., List, xxvi, 1510. This is an Endropia; prob- 

 ably E. amcenaria or near it.

EPIRRANTHIS Hiibner.

Walk, (in part), List Lep. Hit. 15r. Mus., xxiii, 1015, 1861. 



Body very stout and thick, the thorax hairy, and the abdomen rather 

 short. Head broad, squarish in front. Palpi broad and stout, ascending a 

 little, extending well in trout; third joint long and slender. Male antenme 

 heavily pectinated to the end ; simple in the female. Wings short and broad ; 

 anterior pair not subfalcate; costa more convex than in Endropia; apex 

 pointed, subrectangular ; outer edge full, convex, with a slight bend in the 

 middle, scarcely more distinct in the female than in the male. Hind wings 

 full, with a slight bend in the middle, extending slightly beyond the end of 

 the abdomen. Venation : much as in the lower species of Endropia (E. hypo- 

 c/rraria), the costal vein free; the first and second subcostal venules very 

 long, equal in length ; the fifth subcostal arises nearer the origin of the sixth 

 than in Endropia. Discal venules much as in Endropia. Hind legs with the 

 tibiae not swollen; the tarsi rather long and thick, much as in Endropia. 

 Coloration : deep reddish-brown ; hind wings and under surface of both wings 

 bathed with bright ochreous. 



The single species of this genus is quite unlike Numeria, and is closely 

 allied in all its structural features with the lower, simpler species of Endropia, 

 from which it differs in the slight characters indicated above, chiefly in the 

 more convex costa, the more acute palpi, and the shorter wings, as well as 

 the quite different style of coloration.
