Only a single example obtained. 



The genus Dagassa chiefly differs from Applidddua in 

 its longer and more slender palpi. " Homo])tera''\livii- 

 nutiva of Walker may be added to the genus. 



The type of Blanona {B. selenisoides) is 3fenecina 

 hifacies. 



The genera Mareura and Daxata should be placed near 

 Mulelochu.
