101 Mr. E. Meyrick on the dassijicatioii of 



satiirniaria, Graes. flavomarginaria, Brem. 



{—ocellata, Leach). melanaria, L. 



69. Enconista, Ld. 



Face with tolerably appressed scales. Tongiie developed. Palpi 

 moderate, porrected, rough-scaled. Antennie in ^ bipectinated to 

 apex. Thorax rather hairy beneath. Femora glabrous ; anterior 

 tibiai with strong apical hook ; posterior tibiaj in <? not dilated, 

 with all spurs present. Fore wings in ^ with fovea, surmounted 

 by a small gland ; 10 connected with 9, 11 out of 10, anastomosing 

 with or running into 12. Hind wings with 8 approximated to cell 

 to middle. 



An offshoot of Diastictis ,• the single species is South 

 European. 



miniosaria, Dup. 



70. EcTROPis, lib. 



Face tolerably smooth or with hardly projecting scales. Tongue 

 developed. Palpi moderate, porrected, rough-scaled. Antennie 

 in c? with two short acute projections on each side of each joint, 

 emitting strong fascicles of cilia. Thorax rather hairy beneath. 

 Femora glabrous ; posterior tibiae in <? sometimes dilated, with 

 all spurs present. Fore wings in ^ with fovea ; 10 sometimes out 

 of 9 or absent, sometimes connected with 9, 11 sometimes out of 9 

 or 10, sometimes anastomosing with 12. Hind wings with 8 

 approximated to cell to middle. 



A small genus, but widely and perhaps universally 

 distributed ; probably a development of ScUdoseuia. In 

 some exotic species the antennal projections are more 

 developed and form short tufted pectinations, but are 

 always paired. The neuration of the fore wings is 

 generally highly variable, and tends to assume a different 

 type in each species, in exotics exceeding even the wide 

 limits assigned above.
