Dyschloropsis gen. nov. 



Foreivini/s : shaped mucli as in Heuustola Warr. 



Hindwings : with hindmargin not rounded. Init twice hent, once just below the 

 apex, and again at the end of the third median ner\ule ; anal angle prominent. 



Antennae of S shortly pectinated, of ? sinijile. Forewings green ; hindwings 

 whitish. 



Type : Dysehlcn'opsis impararia Gueu. 



I have not seen this insect; but, from the tigure given by .Millicre, it certainlv 

 cannot be left in Eucrostis, and the outline of the hindwings is different from that 

 of all other genera of the snbfamilv. 



Gelasma albistrigata sp. nov. 



Forewings : jiale green, shagreened with white : an indistinct jialer curved basal 

 line, .slightly edged externally with darker green ; a regularly ilenticulated second 

 line, internally dark green ; discal mark ereseentic, dark gi'een. 



Hindwings : the same. 



Fringe concolorous ; vertex and shaft of antennae white; pectinations, palpi, and 

 face rusty brown ; thorax and abdomen concolorous with wings. Underside nearly 

 white. 



Fxpanse of wings : ? , 4G mm. : c?, 08 mm.

In tlie Bidl. Mosc, loc. cit., ^lotschulsky says that his viridescentaria very 

 much resembles Bremer's G. sponsaria. \\'hetlier it be identical, or only congeneric, 

 strictly, his generic name Geometrina should, on the score of priority, stand for the 

 genus, instead of Meyrick's Megalochlora ; but the use of the word Geometrina 

 for a genus, when tlie whole subfamily is so frequently denoted by the term 

 Geometrinae might be olyectionable.* 



Mesurodes gen. nov. 



Distinguished from Urospila Warr. and Orniihospila Warr., to both of which 

 the typical species bears a superficial likeness, by the palpi and antennae. The 

 palpi are extremely short and weak, and the antennae (?)much thickened towards 

 the base. In the other genera the palpi are strongly developed, especially in the $, 

 and the antennae of the ? filiform and slender throughout. The angulation of the 

 hindwings is intermediate between the two. The c? will no doubt show otlier )ioints 

 of di ffeience. 



Ty])e : Mesurodefi erichlora ^leyr. (/odts). 



Miantonota gen. nov. 



Forewings: Iriangidar; cost a hardly arched ; ai)ex blunt; hindmargin curved ; 



inner margin straight ; anal angle well ex]iressed. 



* In my opinion it is much more ol3Jectional>le to ab.audon tlic Law of priority than to accept the name 

 of Gnotnrti'iiui.—K. J.
