Type, J 1 ? , Phcecadophora fimbria fa, Wlsm. 



Antennas ( £) slightly ciliate. Palpi (£) short, projecting 

 only the length of the head beyond it ; terminal joint very 

 short, almost concealed in the strong tuft above and below 

 the median joint: ? longer than the <£ , more porrect, ter- 

 minal joint more apparent and slightly depressed. Head 

 with a strong erect crest. Thorax with a slightly erect tuft 

 posteriorly. Fore wings narrow, elongate, costa gently 

 arched, $ without a costal fold ; apex acute or abruptly 

 angulated ; termen straight or slightly impressed, not convex ; 

 tornus rounded, dorsum straight. JSeuration } 12 veins, all 

 separate ; 2 from middle third of cell ; 7 to termen ; 10 not 

 nearer to 11 than 9. Hind wings much broader than the 

 fore wings, more or less trapezoidal, apex rounded, termen 

 slightly indented below it ; <J with a strong pencil of hairs 

 near the limbus on the upperside and a fringe of long hairs

 8 veins ; 3 and 4 connate ; 5 bent over to near origin of 4 ; 

 6 and 7 separate but parallel and closely approximate at 

 their lase. Legs, hind tibise and tarsi strongly clothed above

 tibise being clothed with thick hair-tufts, as well as in the 

 more strongly developed fringes of hairs above and below 

 the hind wings near the limbus.
