ELYMNIINA. 145 
narrower bidentate-tipt scales, but no androconia visible; on the underside of 
the wing is a glossy nacrescent patch below the base of the cell, which is 
clothed with broad ordinary scales, and a restricted portion below the sub- 
median is clothed with laxly-packed raised narrow oval scales. Hindwing short, 
obtusely triangularly-ovate; anterior margin extremely convex, apex pointed, 
exterior margin convex, sinuous, and with a broader caudate angle at end of upper 
median ; anal angle obtusely pointed ; costal vein short, looped at its base, forming 
a false prediscoidal cell, emitting a short spur towards the base of the costa; cell 
short, very broad ; upper subcostal emitted at one-half before end ot the cell, and 
terminating on middle of the costa, second subcostal terminating at the angle ; 
discocellulars erect, lower concave, radial from angle above the middle; the two 
upper median branches emitted from end of the cell, lower median at more than 
one-third before the end; submedian vein straight ; internal vein recurved ; on the 
upperside is a glandular patch situated within the upper half of the cell, and is 
overlapped by a tuft of long erectile-hairs arising from along its lower edge, the patch 
being clothed with very densely-packed laxly-raised scales, which are of equal width 
throughout, and have obtuse rounded tip and base, and with numerous short, slender, 
nearly fusiform blackish scales (androconia) with an acute point at each end. Body 
moderately robust ; palpi elongate, porrect, slender, very compactly clothed beneath 
with adpressed scales, and pilose above; front legs hairy, middle and hindlegs 
naked; antennz with a slender indistinctly formed club; eyes naked. 
Apuir Carerpittar.—Somewhat fusiform, minutely pubescent; head armed with 
two erect divergent setose processes; anal segment also armed with two longer, 
slender, hindwardly-projected setose processes. Feeds on Palmacee. 
Curysatis.—Suspended by the tail; head truncate, with two small pointed 
processes in front, and a similar thoracic process above. 
Tyrr.—K. undularis. 
Of the species enumerated by Hiibner (Verz. p. 87), under Hlymnias, viz., 
Protogenia, Jynx, undularis, and Lais, Jynx is figured as an Elymnias, by Hubner 
(Ziitrage, figs. 37, 38). This group, therefore, becomes the typical one, and not 
that represented by Lais.
