 forming a small angle close above the inner margin ; central fascia with two outer 

 dark olive and blackish bands, containing a paler centre, the inner edge angulated 

 outwards below costa, and inwards abo\e inner margin, towards the angle of the basal 

 patch, preceded on the inner margin by a pale flesh-coloured spot ; the outer edge 

 sinuous and denticulate, parallel to the hindniargin ; space between the basal patch 

 and central fascia with a narrower dark band of three lines, between a rufons-lined

 Cophocerotis gen. nov. 

 Allied to Lissopsis Warr. and Mamnopteryx I'ack., but distinguished, according 

 to Dognin, by the antennae of the S, which are uniseriate in their ])ectinations. 

 Tyi)e : Cophocerolis jaspentn. Dognin. 



Palaeoctenis Meyr. {=Heteropsis Guen.)has similar antennae in the S ; but the 

 type of the genus, testaria (inen., is from North Africa, while C. jasjieaUi Dogn. is 

 from South America.

 Dochephora gen. nov. 



Fweitdiv/s : elongate triangular; costa nearly straight, slightly convex near 

 base and towards apex, incm-ved between ; apex bhmt ; hindmargin strongly curved 

 and oblique. 



IIindwi)i;js : elongate willi round hindmargin in ? ; shortened and contorted 

 in S. 



Forewings of c? on the npperside with an oval scaled swelling in the middle 

 between the median nervure and the submedian fold ; on the underside this appears 

 as an oval hollow, with a thickened chitinous edge, fringed with short hairs and lined 

 with a bed of rough coarse scales, as in Sebastia Warr., and, as in that genus, the 

 S S have a long tuft of hairs from the base, which projects as far as the extremity of 

 the discal hollow ; but in Dochephora the ends of this tuft are curved and club-shaped, 

 whereas in Sebastia they appear as if sharply cut oft". Hindwiugs of i with the 

 neuration quite irregular : the cell is a long oval ; the costal leaves the subcostal 

 near the base ; the second subcostal, the radial, and the third median rise all close 

 together from the rounded end of cell, which contains towards its apex an oval raised 

 space, corresponding to that on the forewings. Abdomen of <S with lateral tufts, those 

 on the penultimate segment being conspicuous by their length ; antennae thick, 

 simple; palpi rostriform, rather stout; tongue jn-esenf ; hinil tibiae of S willi 

 four spurs. 



Type : Dochephwa bvllala Warr. 



This genus is a develo])inent of Ghlorochjstis.
