of affinities with GracHaria, especially the short streaks at the apex of 

 the primaries, reminding one of the " hook " in some species of that 

 genus. The paljii are rather suggestive of relation to Cosmoptcryx or 

 Stathinopoda, but the form and neuration of the wings place it beyond 

 doubt in the Gelechiihv, though the caudate primaries are peculiar. 



No maxillary palpi ; labial palpi recurved, very long and slender, with 

 the third joint longer than the second, and i)ointed : tongue long, scaled 

 at the base ; forehead convex ; face broad ; scales of the head and face 

 appressed ; basal joint of the antennae small, scarcely distinguishable, 

 from the stalk, which is long and slender. 



Primaries lanceolate, narrow, caudate, the costal and dorsal margins 

 both being excised before the tip, behind the cell, the dorsal margin 

 deeply so, and the extreme tip is a little hooked backwards. The costal 

 vein is short, cell narrow ; the subcostal gives off two branches, both 

 behind the middle, the tirst remote from the second, which is at the end 

 of the cell ; and the apical branch is furcate behind the cell, both 

 branches going to the costal margin. The discal vein gives off a single 

 branch, which goes to the dorsal margin, and the median is four-branched, 

 all four at or near to the end of the cell ; the submedian is furcate at the 

 base. 



The secondaries are deeply emarginate beneath the apex, which is a 

 little hooked backwards ; the subcostal gives off a long branch from before 

 the middle, and is furcate, with one branch to the costal and the other to 

 the dorsal margin before the tip ; the cell is unclosed, and the independ- 

 ent discal branch arises at the median, which is three-branched, the first 

 one being before the middle and remote from the others. They are about 

 as wide as the primaries. 



The neuration of the secondaries allies this genus to Trypauisnia Clem.,.

Silvery white ; ciliae pale stramineous ; upper surface of the thorax, 

 with four narrow, equidistant, longitudinal, golden yellow lines. Primaries 

 with three similar golden yellow lines extending through the entire length 

 of the wings ; one of these is placed just within the dorsal margin, and 

 is continuous with one of the central thoracic lines, but the line is very 

 indistinct, becoming more distinct towards the apex ; another of the lines 

 on the wing is continuous with one of the lateral thoracic lines, is very
