 Ocelli rarehj present. Bodij slender. Wings elongate., with long or very 

 long cilia (this is probably the most distinctive character of the Tiiieina ; 

 indeed there appears to be a gradual progression from the Diurnal 

 Lepidoptera, where the cilia arc shortest, to the Vlerophorina and Ala- 

 citina), raore especiallg the posterior pair ; these are rareig of an elongate- 

 trapezoidal fonn, (in Dcpressaria, Semioscopis, and Euplocainns, the pos- 

 terior wings arc rather l)road, but have not the form or shortness ol' 

 tliosc of the Tortricina ; llgpercallia has regular Tortriciform postericn* 

 wings, but the antcnn.e and palpi show it to be a true member of the 

 Tineina), mostlg remarkablg atlennated, withont markings. The larv(C

 feet varies irreatlv.
