wings i-1, lanceolate, cilia 1^-2| ; vein 4 absent, 5 and 6 approxi- 

 mated towards base. 



Developed apparently from a form approaching Dascia. The 

 genus is represented elsewhere by a few species in Eui'ope and 

 one in New Zealand, but will no doubt be eventually discovered 

 in other regions also. Some European species have veins 4 and 5 

 of the forewings coincident ; the genus Zelleria has been restricted 

 to these by Wocke, and a genus Hofmannia formed to receive the 

 rest, and I formerly adopted this view, but on consideration of 

 the close agreement of these forms in all other respects, it now 

 seems to me unnecessary to separate them.
