Christchurch. Common and widely distributed in Australia. Larva 

 probably on Leptospermum. 



26. Gargaphia Walk. 

 Gargaphia Walk., Cat. xxvi, 1634 (1862) ; type, muriferata Walk. 

 Face with cone of scales. Antennae in <$ simple. Palpi rough -scaled. 

 Forewings with hyaline scar on transverse vein ; 10 out of 11, sometimes 

 anastomosing shortly with 9. 



Having now plenty of material of Drepanodes Guen. (which I consider 

 synonymous with Oxydia Guen.), I consider the present genus distinct from 

 it by the hyaline scar and neuration of forewings ; but I have a species 

 from Venezuela which I should include with the present genus.

27. Azelina Guen. 

 Azelina Guen., Lep. ix, 156 (1857) ; type, lustraria Guen. Polygonia

 Gonophylla Meyr., Trans. N.Z. Inst, xviii, 184 (1886); type, 

 nelsonaria Feld. 



Face with projecting hairs. Antennae in $ thick, simple. Palpi rather 

 long, rough-scaled. Thorax and femora hairy beneath. Forewings : 10 

 sometimes shortly anastomosing with 9, 11 separate. 



A South American genus of considerable extent, with which (having 

 acquired copious material) I find the New Zealand species entirely con- 

 cordant ; but it may be added that there are also other nearly related 

 South American forms which show considerably diversified structure.
