Hyposidra Gn., Lep., x., p. 150; Meyr., Proc. Linn. Soc. N. S. 

 Wales, 1891, p.588; Hmps., Moths Ind., iii., p.2l:3. 



Head and face smooth-scaled. Tongue weakly developed. 

 Palpi rather short, porrect or slightly ascending, thickened with 

 appressed or short rough hairs; terminal joint short, obtuse. 

 Antennae in ^ with a double row of long pectinations, apex 

 simple. Thorax and abdomen not crested; thorax hairy beneath. 

 Femora glabrous or somewhat hairy. Forewings with apex pro- 

 duced and falcate; fovea in ^J present; 10 and 11 stalked, or 

 separate, or 10 absent, not anastomosing. Hindwings with 

 termen angled on vein 4; neuration normal. 



A small and natural genus; best distinguished from Boarmia 

 by the weak tongue, falcate forewings, and angled hindwings. 



The neuration varies beyond ordinary limits, and there seems 

 to be a constant difference between the neuration of the two 

 sexes.
