Characterised b}' the peculiar shape of forewings, broader 

 liiud wings, and the long-stalking of vein 10. I dedicate thei 

 genus to Mr. Geo. Lyell, who has given me so much generous 

 help. In| addition to the following, I have two undescribed 

 species, one from Ait. Tambourine, Queensland, and one from 

 Victoria.
