Fore wings marked with spots or blotches. 



Head aud face pilose ; without ocelli. Eyes rather large, round. 

 Antennae claviforni, one-third less long than the fore wings, the 

 tip without hairs or seta. Palpi short, scarcely ascending beyond ^ 

 the front, cylindrico-conical, pilose beneath, acute. Tongue cor- 

 neous, and about as long as the thorax beneath. 



Body moderately stout, hairy ; the fore wings when closed ex- 

 tending beyond the tip of the abdomen. Legs slender ; tarsi 

 roughened with spines. The fore tibiae with a rather long inter- 

 nal spine ; the tibiee of the posterior legs with four very small

PROCRIS? Fabr. 



Fore wings somewhat fusiform. The subcostal vein with two 

 distinct, rather long marginal nervules, with apical vein simple, 

 with two disco-central nervules. The median 4-branched, the 

 medio-posterior opposite the first marginal nervule and the two 

 upper branches on the line of the discal vein, which is straight. 

 The fold of the wing is thickened from the base to the tip. Sub- 

 median simple. Hind wings not as broad as the fore wings at 

 their broadest part, ovate. The subcostal vein is bifid, the lower 

 branch giving rise to a decided rather oblique discal vein, which is 

 angulated above the medio-superior nervule, where it receives the 

 discal fold. Median vein with four, equidistant nervules. 



Head moderate, advanced, but without decided neck ; with 

 rather large ocelli. Face moderate, oblique and projecting tuber- 

 cidarly at the base of the antennae, and in the middle. Eyes small.
