86 Mr. E. Meyrick on the classification of 



peculiar neuratiou ; not yet recognised outside the 

 European region. 

 vittaria, Hb. 

 jjerpusillaiia, Ev. 

 *reaiimiiraria, Mill. 



46. Emmiltis, Hh. 

 Face with projecting tuft or smooth. Palpi moderate, porrected 

 or ascending, rough-scaled or with long rough projecting hairs. 

 Antennae in $ bipectinated, extreme apex simple. Thorax some- 

 times hairy beneath. Femora glabrous ; posterior tibiae in ^ 

 moderate or rather short, not dilated, without median spurs, in 5 

 without median spurs ; posterior tarsi in g- normal or rather short. 

 Fore wings with 10 out of U, 11 connected with 9. Hind wings 

 with 6 and 7 stalked. 



Nearly related to Stevrha, of which it is perhaps a 

 development. Characteristic of the Mediterranean 

 countries, but extending into Central Asia.

 kuldschaensis, Alph. {Stigma). 



47. Chrysoctenis, n. g. 

 Face smooth. Palpi moderate, ascending, with long rough pro- 

 jecting hairs beneath. Antennue in ^ bipectinated, apex simple. 

 Thorax rather hairy beneath. Femora somewhat hairy ; posterior 

 tibite in ^ short, slender, loosely haired, wilhnut spurs, in J 

 without median spurs ; posterior tarsi in 3 short. Fore wings 

 with 10 out of 9, 11 connected with 9. Hind wings with G and 7 

 stalked. 



The single species is South European ; it is probably 

 an offshoot of Eois. 



filacearia, H.-S. 



48. Eois, Hh. 

 Face smooth. Palpi rather short or moderate, porrected or sub- 

 ascending, loosely scaled. Antennae in $ dentate or serrate, 

 ciliated with fascicles or evenly, fascicles rarely {perocliraria) 

 rising from very short paired processes. Thorax glabrous beneath. 

 Femora cjlabrous ; posterior tibiae in J short or moderate, slender
