  Subcostal 
  nervure 
  five-branched, 
  second 
  branch 
  emitted 
  before, 
  and 
  third 
  

   branch

  The 
  species 
  included 
  in 
  this 
  genus 
  agree 
  in 
  neuration, 
  but 
  differ 
  somewhat 
  

   in 
  the 
  length 
  and 
  texture 
  of 
  the 
  wings. 
  In 
  T. 
  Suhpnnctata 
  (the 
  type) 
  the 
  wings 
  

   are 
  almost 
  entire, 
  while 
  in 
  T. 
  Erastns, 
  Hew., 
  and 
  allies, 
  they 
  are 
  visibly 
  scalloped 
  ; 
  

   but 
  the 
  gap 
  is 
  partially 
  bridged 
  over 
  by 
  other 
  species.
