Gen. 71. Paurocoma. 



Paurocoma, Low., Tr. R.S.S.A., 1902, p.230. 



Frons with strong, rounded, anterior protuberance. Tongue 

 present. Palpi moderate, porrect; second joint roughly hairy; 

 terminal joint minute Antennae of ft thickened, slightly 

 dentate, minutely ciliated. Forewings of ft without fovea; 10 

 and 11 arising separately from cell, 10 anastomosing strongly 

 with 11 and then approximated to 9 (perhaps sometimes anasto- 

 mosing), 12 free. Hind wings normal. 



Perhaps allied to the A met ova group, but its exact affinities 

 are not clear.

Frons flat. Tongue well-developed. Palpi short, porrect; 

 second joint thickened with rough scales beneath; terminal joint 

 minute. Antenna? of ft laminate, shortly ciliated. Thorax not 

 crested(l); beneath slightly hairy. Femora not hairy. Posterior 

 tibiae of ft not dilated. Forewings with 10 and 11 arising sepa- 

 rately from cell and strongly anastomosing, 10 sometimes anasto- 

 mosing with 9; in ft without fovea. Hindwings normal. Closely 

 allied to Paurocoma, which differs in the strongly projecting 

 frons.
