62. Anathamna, n.g. 



Antennae in cf simple. Palpi moderate, porrected, second 

 joint rough-scaled above and beneath, terminal joint short or 

 moderate. Thorax with small crest. Forewings with 7 and 

 8 stalked, 7 to termen. Hindwings with 3, 4, 5 approximated 

 at base, 6 and 7 closely approximated towards base. 



Type A. osfmrifis Meyr. This genus is undoubtedly in its 

 right position here, but the peculiar form of wing gives a 

 superficial resemblance to some of the typical I'ortricidce, 

 which is supported to some extent by the colouring.
