214 Mr. E. Meyrick's Descriptions of 



suggest that in life there must be considerable resemblance 

 to a small Phytophagous Coleopteron. 



Encamina, n. g. 



Head smooth ; ocelli conspicuous ; tongue developed. Antennae 

 (apex broken) thickened with scales, in <J shortly ciliated, basal 

 joint moderate, without pecten. Labial palpi moderately long, 

 curved, ascending, with appressed scales somewhat roughened 

 anteriorly, terminal joint longer than second, pointed. Maxillary 

 palpi rudimentary. Posterior tibiae somewhat loosely scaled above, 

 tarsi rather densely scaled, with very short bristles at apex of 

 joints. Forewings with 2 from near angle, 3 and 4 closely approxi- 

 mated from angle, 7 to termen, 11 from before middle. Hindwings 

 i, elongate-ovate, cilia J; 2 remote, 3 and 4 connate from angle, 

 5 parallel, 6 and 7 nearly approximated towards base. 



Encamina phlegyropa, n. sp. 

 (j*. 24 mm. Head, palpi, and thorax glossy dark indigo-fuscous, 

 patagia deep ferruginous-reddish. Abdomen deep red, apical third 

 dark indigo-fuscous. Posterior tibiae red, apex and tarsi dark 

 indigo-fuscous. Forewings elongate, narrow, somewhat dilated 

 posteriorly, costa somewhat sinuate, slightly arched posteriorly, 

 apex rounded, termen obliquely rounded; dark indigo-fuscous; 

 an irregular crimson-red basal spot, not quite reaching costa or 

 dorsal edge : cilia purplish-fuscous. Hindwings dark violet-fuscous ; 

 an orange-red basal patch occupying 'i of wing but not reaching 

 termen except at base, included hairs of 16 dark fuscous; cilia 

 violet-fuscous. 



British Guiana, Bartica, in February {Parish) ; one 

 specimen. 



Crembalastis, n. g. 



Head smooth; ocelli present; tongue developed. Antennae 

 almost 1, stout, simple, basal joint short, without pecten. Labial 

 palpi moderate, curved, porrected, with appressed scales, terminal 

 joint longer than second, pointed. ]\Laxillary palpi rudimentary. 

 Posterior tibiae loosely scaled above, basal joints of tarsi with very 

 short apical bristles. Forewings with 2 from angle, 7 absent, 11 

 from middle. Hindwings |, elongate -lanceolate, cilia 2 ; 2 remote, 

 3 from angle, 4 absent, 5 absent, 6 and 7 rather approximated 

 towards base. 



Crembalastis erythrorma, n. sp. 



(t 9- 10-13 mm. Head, palpi, antennae, thorax, and abdomen 

 glossy dark violet-fuscous. Forewings elongate, narrow, costa
