190 FAMILY EVANIID.^. 



given by Dr. Stiles provides that names are not to lie rejected 

 because they differ only in termination, so we must retain both 

 names, confusing as such a course may seem in the present instance. 



Evaniellus seems to differ from Hypiia only in the loss of Cu, so 

 that it is one step further in the evolutional series that the family 

 presents in the reduction of the wing veins (Fig. 87). 



There are four species, all from the Brazilian region of the Neo- 

 tropical.
