Appears to be a larger species than the others, and at first sight 
to differ strongly. It is, however, very nearly allied to C. evicta, but 
I know of no parallel in the genus that would excuse the reference 
of both under one name. 
Litognatha,!+ n. g. 
Ocelli. Head with the scales extended tuftedly forwards on the vertex 
between the antennae. Male antennae with strongly setose pectinations as 
well as bristles on either side of the antennal stem; along the basal third 
the pectinations are reduced, and subobsolete on the inside, somewhat gradu- 
ally becoming more apparent towards a point about one third from the base, 
where they seem to be massed, giving the stem a tufted or thickened appear- 
ance at this point; thus the antennae differ from the simply bristled structure 
presented in Pityolita, Labial pulpi very long and compressed with appressed 
squamation. Second joint nearly as long as in Philometra, but more bent; — 
third joint very long, about half as long as the second. Male fore legs with 
slender curved tibiae and a sparse brush of long hair. [The appearance of 
the fore legs reminds me of the representation by Poey of Mastigophora. | 
Abdomen linear, notably long, exceeding the hind wings by about a fourth 
of its length. Female antennae simple, the setal hairs obsolete over the basal 
portion of the stem, impectinate, without nodosity ; palpi a little shorter and 
more curved than in the opposite sex. 
One of the generaallied to Zanclognatha. In the type, L. nubil- 
ifascia, the form of the transverse posterior line is unusual. Both 
the species I here include are slight and L. litophora reminds me 
strongly of Pityolita in ornamentation, but may be readily sepa- 
rated on structural characters. As yet I have been unable to make 
neurational examinations. 
Litognatha nubilifascia, Grote, Plate 2, Fig.34, 92. 
Gray dusted with olivaceous, paler than Pityolita pedipillalis, Transverse 
anterior line indistinct. | Reniform indicated by dots at extremity of cell. 
Transverse posterior line oblique, a little uneven, not projected opposite the 
cell as usual, but very slightly outwardly inflected at costa and preceded by 
a distinct, diffuse olivaceous shade and marked outwardly by a pale line. 
Subterminal line equally, and thus unusually distinct, similar to the t. p. line 
in appearance, less oblique. A narrow, distinct, continued marginal line. 
Secondaries a little paler than primaries with the outer lines of the primaries
