 outwards forming a prominent acute projection in disc, thence 

 obliquely inwards to dorsum at |; a large triangular dark fuscous 

 blotch on costa from |^ to apex; a paler fuscous suffusion on mid-

 blotch, less distinct in disc; a fuscous terminal line: cilia pale

Face flat. Palpi long, obliquely ascending; second joint twice 

 breadth of eye, smooth-scaled; terminal joint more than one-half 

 second, slender, smooth, acute. Thorax and abdomen not crested. 

 Forewings with 7 from cell, 8, 9, 10 stalked, no areole. Hind- 

 wings with vein 3, 4 connate, 5 from near 4.- 



Allied to Falcimala, Hmps., but veins 3 and 4 of hind wings 

 are not stalked, and 5 is approximated to them at base, and there- 

 is no abdominal crest. In neuration it agrees with Alelimma, 

 Hmps., but lacks the peculiar palpi.
