Gen. 1. Ptochostola. 

 Ptochostola, Meyr., P.L.8.N.S.W. 1882, p. 154. 

 Sir Geo. Hampson describes and figures vein 7 as present 

 in the forewings ; according to my observations Mr. Meyrick i& 

 correct in stating its absence. Vein 5 appears to be constantly 

 absent in both wings. The genus should probably be restricted 

 to the single species ; two South American forms associated 

 with it by Hampson differ in neuration.
