serrate with short ciliations. Forewings with 7 curved 

 at base, 10 closely approximated to 9. Hindwings with 

 4 and 5 approximated for a short distance, 6 and 7 connate, 

 7 anastomosing with 8 for half its length. 



Type Botys ophiceralis, Wlk., from Java. The ^ 

 antennae are highly specialised. Sir Geo. Hampson makes 

 it a section of the genus Glyphodes, but I think the palpi 

 ■are very different.
