Both Mr. Warren (Nov. Zool., 1898, p.249), and Colonel 

 Swinhoe (Trans. Ent. Soc, 1902, p. 627) assert that this species 

 has no fovea, and both imply that Mr. MeyricU made a blunder, 

 therefore, in putting it into the genus Selidosema. The fovea is 

 present, and is exceptionally large and distinct.
