apex; posterior short, folded within: legs rather slender: Jemora simple: 

 tibiw sparingly armed with spines, posterior slightly bent, all armed with 

 a pair of short spurs at the apex, and the four hinder with a second pair 

 below the middle. 



This genus, established by Mr. Curtis, may be at once recognised 

 from the other Trichoptera by having the body depressed and very 

 broad, the head is also large, but the wings in neuration closely 

 resemble those of the first section of the following genus ; from its 

 depressed form and large head, it reminds one forcibly of the genus 

 Lyda amongst the Hymenoptera, with which, however," it has no 

 affinity : one species (and I believe one specimen only) has been 

 hitherto taken, which is described and figured by Curtis, from whose 

 account its characters have been abridged.
