middle by an imperfect grey streak, and towards outer 

 margin by two parallel arched grey stripes ; an angulated 

 series of black spots beyond the cell ; semicircular 

 blackish-edged white spots at the end of the discoidal 

 cells ; wings below shining leaden grey, crossed by a

The under surface of the wings is almost metallic.

Chlorotimandra, n. g. 



Allied to Timandra ; primaries broad, falcate, with the 

 outer margin strongly angulated at the extremity of the 

 third median branch and deeply sinuate between the 

 latter and the apex ; secondaries small and narrow, 

 the apex formed at the extremity of the first subcostal 

 branch ; the neuration of these wings is extremely simple 

 in the male, the costal vein does not reach the apex, the 

 two subcostal branches are placed upon a long foot-stalk ; 

 the discoidal cell is short, with very oblique disco- 

 cellulars, from the middle of which springs the radial ; 

 the median vein is quite simple or one-branched, and 

 takes the position usually occupied by the submedian; 

 the latter is extremely short, and represents the internal 

 vein of other moths ; neuration of the female quite 

 normal ; body long and slender ; antennae of male 

 serrate-moniliform, not pectinated.
