although there is an excavation on the limbus as well as the 

 tubular lobe at the base. In the outline of the wing these 

 three species agree with Cymolomia, Li, rather than with 

 Olethreutes, which possesses the lobe without any excavation 

 of the limbus, but the American species differ from Cymo- 

 lomia in the tubular structure of the lobe. Thus we have in 

 this group four published genera, which can be distinguished 

 by structural differences : — 



1. ECCOPSIS, Z. — Limbus rolled at base, without lobe, with 



strongly angular limbal excavation and deep dorsal 

 excavation beyond the flexus. 



2. ExARTEMA, Clem.— With partially free tubular lobe from 



base of limbus, moderately excised limbal margin, and 

 excised dorsum beyond the flexus. 



3. Cymolomia, Ld. — Limbus rolled at the base, without free 



lobe ; limbus excised, dorsum not noticeably excised. 



4. Olethreutes, Hb. — Limbus rolled, with slightly deve- 



loped lobe ; limbus and dorsum not excised.

Antennae cinereous, basal joint yellow-ochreous. Pa^pi 

 pale whitish ochreous, shaded externally with fuscous. Head 

 yellow-ochreous, shaded with fuscous. Thorax bright yellow- 

 ochreous, mottled with fuscous. Fore wings bright yellow- 

 ochreous, reticulated on the basal half and deeply suffused 

 on the outer half with blackish fuscous, and with numerous 

 spots and short cross-bars of bright shining steel-blue; the 

 spots for the most part being evenly distributed over the 

 basal half, and with three bars and some spots on the outer 

 half, one below the termen at the commencement of the 

 apical third, one above the tornus, and one within and below 

 the apex, the two outer moderately straight, the inner slightly 

 oblique, except where the deep outer shade touches the costa 

 immediately beyond the middle; the edges of the wing are 

 uniformly bright yellow-ochreous, mottled and spotted with 

 dark fuscous; cilia greyish fuscous, with a broad pale whitish 

 ochreous interruption below the apex, a black line along their 

 base. Exp. al. 19-20 mm. Hind wings dark brown ; cilia 

 pale whitish ochreous, a dark line running through them 

 near their base. Abdomen brownish. Legs grey.

This species has a very rudimentary excrescence near the 

 base of the limbus of the hind wings, scarcely more than a 

 thickening of the cuticle on the margin itself, in this respect
