CiRRHOCHRISTA, Ld. 



Forehead flat, oblique ; ocelli absent ; tongue developed. Au- 

 tennse two-thirds, in ^ stout, ciliated (Ld.). Labial palpi long, 

 straight, porrected, rough-scaled, attenuated to apex. Maxillary 

 palpi moderate, triangularly dilated with rough scales. Posterior 

 tibiae with outer spurs one-fourth of inner. Fore wings with vein 

 1 simple, 4 and 5 closely approximated at base, 6 sometimes from 

 point with 9, 7 and 8 out of 9, 10 approximated to 9. Hind wings 

 1 ; veins 4 and 5 closely approximated at base, 7 out of 6, anasto- 

 mosing with 8 to middle. 



Lederer omitted to notice the stalking of vein 7 of the 

 fore wings with 9, and has consequently placed this 

 genus away from its true allies.
