110 Mr. E. Meyrick on the classijication of 



rectaria, Walk., remains ; the rest (differing in the 

 absence of the fovea of hind wings, and in having 11 of 

 the fore wings ahnost always anastomosing with 12), 

 form a closely allied but distinct genus, for which I pro- 

 pose the name Trocldstis. Deilinia proper occurs 

 throughout the northern hemisphere, though only pos- 

 sessing a few species ; it must originate from a form 

 approaching Eucklcena and Metrocanipa.

84. LOMOGRAPHA, lib. 

 Face nearly smooth or with slight tnft. Tongue developed. 

 Palpi moderate or rather short, porrected or snbascending, rongh- 

 scaled. Antennae in ^ bipectinated, towards apex simple. Thorax 

 somewhat hairy beneath. Femora glabrous ; posterior tibiae in ^ 

 not dilated, with all spurs present. Fore wings in ^ without 

 fovea ; 10 absent, 11 sometimes out of 9, sometimes connected or 

 anastomosing with 9 or 12. Hind wings with 8 approximated to 

 cell to near middle. 



Closely allied to Deilinia, and probably rising from 

 EuchUena. Besides the following there are a few Indo- 

 Malayan and Australian species.

85. SCARDAMIA, Gn. 

 Face more or less prominent, with appressed scales. Tongue 

 developed. Palpi moderate, snbascending, very shortly scaled. 

 Antennae in ^ bipectinated, apex simple. Thorax slightly hairy 

 beneath. Abdomen with dorsal well-defined crest near base. 

 Femora glabrous ; posterior tibiae in <? not dilated, with all spurs 

 present. Fore wings in ^ without fovea ; 11 out of 10, anastom- 

 osing with 12. Hind wings with 8 approximated to cell to middle. 



A development of Euchlcena. It is apparently an 

 Indo-Malayan genus of few species, straggling into 

 Africa, Eastern Asia, and Australia.
