Transtilla a band. Uncu.? long, tapered; socii drooping; 

 gnathos fairly strong, tip bilobed. Anellus minutely spined. 

 Ovipositor flattened. Ostium small; ductus bursuc 

 narrow; bursa with long scar of three scobinate rounded 

 plates at intervals. 



Genus 8. type 



conwayana, Fab. 4—2 



Rev. C. R. N. Burrows. 



Conwayana has a very distinct form of genitalia allied to 



the Cncphasia group. 



Valva curved; sacculus extending one-half; tip rounded 

 and spined. Transtilla rounded, squamous. Uncus widest 

 in centre; socii drooping. iEdoeagus pistilate, set with a 

 patch of 12-14 tiny spines; anellus strongly chitinised, 

 produced. 



Ovipositor flattened, fused. Ostium cleft, wide. Bursa 

 slightly scobinate. 



III. PERONEIDII. 



Valval elongate. Uncus atrophied; socii very large. 



Ovipositor flattened. Ostium plate emarginate, forming 

 two lobes. Signum a single stellate plate. 

 The erect and strongly developed socii suggest a division 

 in this group. The produced and separate valvula runs 

 throughout. The presence or absence of cornuti is difficult 

 to understand. Meyrick gives bergmanniana as the type 

 of Argrotoxa Stcpft, we have therefore adopted this name 

 for the group of species with erect socii. 



Genus l.Argrotoxa, Stph. type bergmanniana L 



Valva long; costa thickened; valvula small, extruded. 

 Uncus atrophied; socii erect, large; anal tube strongly 

 ( liitinised, often with a hook at the orifice, probably an 

 gnathos atrophied . JLdceagus short, stumpy. Vesica with 

 or without cornuti. 



Ovipositor flattened. Ostium plate emarginate forming 

 two lobes. Signum more or less ovate, scobinate.
