the Gi'ometriiia of the I^iU'opean fauna. V2'6 



114. ClIEMERINA, B. 



Face with appressed scales, crown with defined posterior tuft. 

 Tongue developed. Palpi moderate, porrected, roiigh-scaled. An- 

 tennae in ^ bipectinated, apex simple. Thorax hairy beneath. 

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

 present. Fore wings in ^ without fovea ; 10 out of 9, anastom- 

 osing with 11 and 9. Hind wings with 8 approximated to cell to 

 middle. 



The single species is nearly allied to Prosopolopha, of 

 which it may be a development ; it frequents the Medi- 

 terranean coasts. 



caliginearia, Ebr. 



115. Onychora, n. g. 



Face subprominent, with appressed hairs. Tongue developed. 

 Palpi rather short, porrected, rough-haired. Antennae in ^ bi- 

 pectinated to apex.. Thorax hairy beneath. Femora slightly 

 hairy ; anterior tibiae very short, with strong apical hook ; posterior 

 tibiae in ^ not dilated, with all spurs present. Fore wings in ^ 

 without fovea ; 10 out of 9, anastomosing with 9, 11 anastomosing 

 with 12 and 10. Hind wings with 8 approximated to cell to 

 middle. 



The only species is doubtless derived from Prosopo- 

 lopha ; it inhabits South-west Europe.

116. Prosopolopha, Ld.

 posterior tibiae in <? not dilated, with all spurs present. Fore wings 

 in (? without fovea ; 10 anastomosing with 9, 11 anastcmosing with 

 12 and 10. Hind wings with 8 approximated to cell to beyond

This genus was named Ligia by Duponchel, but the 

 name is preoccupied in the Crustacea. The limits of 

 the genus and its geographical range are somewhat un- 

 certain ; the group to which it belongs is most numerously 

 re[)resented in Australia, but is everywhere fragmentary 

 and now probably dying out.
