JLi/c. — Aiilcniia' siil)i)('ctiii;i(c: llir .-^lioii (oolli-likc ])cc;iiialii)ii.s ciidiii^ 

 in \nuix cili;i", varying in size and Iciiglli in (he (liircrciil s|)ccics. Palpi vcrv 

 short, not reaching to the Ironl. The head is ratlici- full in fniiil, iiincdi as 

 in r/iigu/i(i and llijbernia. Fore wings with the cosfa straiglit, the apex 

 usually less rounded than in Phigalia aii<l llijhern'i<i ; the outer edge more 

 ol)li(|ue than in J'/iiii^alia. Hind wings usually more produced towai'd tlu; 

 ape.\ than in Pliigdlia. A'eiiati(Mi : the costal vein eithi'r I'ree or auasloiuosing 

 with the subcostal (varying in diU'ereiif, individuals); subcostal cell long 

 and narrow, much as in Hiibmi'id, l)u1, rather wider, usuallv heginniiig at a 

 considerable distance within the origin of the si.xth sulicustal venule, rarely 

 i)Cgiuniiig at the origin, as in the figure on plate 4. The chief diirerence 

 from ILjberiiiu is in the origin of the median veins being situated much 

 beyond the middle of the wing. Iliud legs as in FliliraUa. 



Fcnudc. — DilFers chiefly from Pliigarui_ in the wings being almost 

 entirely ai)orted, the rings of the abdomen smooth {aafumnata) or armed with 

 spines {reniata). The body is (piite hairy iu rernata^ the scales being shorter 

 and closer in ((uliniiiiatd. 



Egg, /(irra, <nid pi/pu. — The eggs are either oval-cylindrical or sul)conical 

 and trimcate. The larva is smooth, cylindrical; the head smooth, rounded, 

 not nol(died, and as wide as the body. In A. aulunuidtd, there is a pair 

 of rudimentary abdominal legs on the sixth alxlominal segment. The cater- 

 pillar pupates a few inches under the eaith. Tin; pupa in the male (plate lo, 

 fig. i^<l) is nuudi slenderer than in the fefnale. 



Both species ot An'isoji/crii.r dill'er from the JM[ro|)ean icsculdrid in the 

 i()re wings being miudi less rounded at the apex, ami in the hind wings being 

 much more produced toward tin' apex. 



AViiile Jlr. 3Iauu has shown, with nuudi ability, from a consideiation 

 of the imaginal characters, that we have two well-marked and p.-rfei-tly 

 distiiu'l species, Professor Kiley has carried the matter further, and jndg<'S,
