one-jointed, fusiform, one fourth the length of the tibia, clothed with scales and numerous 

 long delicate hairs. Anterior Legs of the female more elongate, the femur and tibia of equal 

 length, the latter subcylindric. Tarsus more than half the length of the tibia, distinctly 

 five-jointed; the basal joint cylindric, longer than the rest combined; second and third about 

 equal ; fourth rather smaller ; fifth small, terminated by a short membranaceous appendage ; 

 first, second, third, and fourth joints, each with a pair of stout spines at the apex, on each of 

 which rests a tuft of hairs arising from the base of the following joints. 

 Middle and Posterior Legs with the tibia? barely as long as the femora, spiny, the spurs distinct. 

 Tarsi longer than the tibia?, spiny, the spines not placed in rows, those above slender, weak, 

 those at the sides and below longer and stouter, especially the lateral ones ; first joint not 

 equal in length to the rest combined ; second and third of nearly equal length, about one third 

 the length of the first ; fourth much shorter ; fifth longer than the fourth, and broader. Claws 

 strong, curved, grooved below. Paronychia bilaciniate ; the outer lacinia as long as the 

 claw, strap-shaped ; inner lacinia broader than, and nearly as long as, the inner, subtriangular. 

 Pulvillus jointed, nearly as long as the claws. 

 Abdomen elongate, clavate, longer than the inner margin of the posterior wings. 



Larva and Pupa unknown. 



This genus is almost too closely allied to the two preceding genera, but there is so much difference in the neuration 

 of the wings, in the structure of the palpi, of the anterior tarsi of the males, and of the paronychia of the middle 

 and posterior feet, as well as in some minor characters, that I have thought it most advisable to separate it from 

 them. The palpi are shorter, smaller, and less hairy than in Olyras ; the anterior tarsi of the males are shorter than 

 those of either Olyras or Athesis ; the paronychia and the neuration of the wings arc different from both these genera. 



From Ituna it is at once known by its much longer antenna?. 



The only species I have yet seen was brought from Venezuela by Mr. Dyson, who informs me that it occurs in the 

 same localities as Olyras Crathis.
