I do not think the distinction given by Hampson between 

 this genus and Strii/lina, Gu., which he bases on the origin of 

 veins 9 and 10 of the forewings to be satisfactory in practice. 

 In his definition of llhodoneura be describes the tibiae as smooth- 

 scaled, but I find them to be hairy in several of the species- 

 included by him in the genus. The genus is a very large one 

 and may prove to be divisible by trustworthy characters, but it 

 would be premature to make the attempt in this paper,
