the licad; scales loose and long. Antenna', moderately pectinated; the 

 liraiiclies short and very slender, shorter than in Percouia; in female simple. 

 Fore wings will) the costa straight, a little sinuons, the apex a little more 

 produced than m EmafKrga ; onter edge more obli(iue tiian m Ematvrga. 

 Hind wings with the outer edge i\dl, slightly hent on the first median vein, 

 and with a slight sinus below the apex, which is round, not produced as in 

 Einahaga and Peron/ia. Venation niueh as in Eniafurgii. hut the subcostal 

 areole is open; tin' areole is, however, narrow and curved, as \n Eiiiaturga. 

 The costal vitin joins the areole either before the middle and unites with it 

 to near the end, as in /'. I ru uraturia, or joins it (iTi F. cnrhonarla of Europe) 

 much as in Eimttnrga, liut a little l)eyond the middle. Hind legs as in Ema- 

 tiirga: the tibia- l>eing slightly swollen, and the tarsi nearly as long as the 

 tibi;e. Coloration nuieh as in Emafurga. 



This genus, which I would restrict to Fhlonia fniitrafaria vi' [\ns country 

 and F. rarhoitaria and F roi/rorclaria of Europe, diU'ers from Eiinih/rga in the 

 subcostal areole being open, in the short i)rauches of the antenna, and the 

 more rounded hind wings. From Prrmnia it dilfers in tiie more pointed 

 apex of the tin-e wings, and the shorter, squarer, hind wings, and the narrower 

 costal area of the tore wings, with the narrow l)ut open areole, and the flat 

 clypeus. The si)ecies arc^ oi small size.

 head. Hody and wings deep rusty orange-ochreous as a ground-color. 

 Head and palpi nKuc red than the thorax. Fore wings with four, well-marked,

 spaces between the lines arc marked with linear dots. The discal dot large 

 and round, sometimes confused with the transverse striga' and extradiscal
