Genus 55. ERIOPUS*, Treitsch. 



Legs, anterior pair porrected when at rest, in the males fur- 

 nished with long woolly hairs, as far as the penultimate 

 joint of the tarsus ; in the females naked. 

 Antenna; slightly pectinated on the inner side, in the males, 



rather pubescent beneath ; simple in the females. 

 Wings, anterior deflexed, angular. 



Larva solitary, feeds on the Pterisaquilina (Common Fern) and 

 always keeps underneath the leaves ; head light-brown or 

 fulvous ; bod^ delicate green, with a white stripe, mar- 

 gined with brown on the sides and stigmata, and a trans- 

 verse line and a crescent of the same colours on each 

 segment, the points of the crescent being directed towards 

 the anus. Dupoiich. Lep. de France, vi. 326. 

 Pupa subterranean. Id. I. c. 



Esper had named the species on which Treitschke has 

 formed this genus Lagopus ; but as that term is already 

 adopted in Ornithology, the latter has changed the appel- 

 lation to Eriopus.
