genus Procris into two sections. The&e are, I think, better 

 regarded as distinct genera. The first section in which vein 4 

 of the hindwings is present contains only one Australian 

 species, dolens, Wlk., which appears to be a true Procris. The 

 second section has vein 4 of the hindwings absent, and in- 

 cludes all the remaining Australian species, for which Wal- 

 ker's generic name should be adopted. 



The Australian genera may be thus tabulated : — 



A. Forewings with 8 and 9 stalked ... Monoschalis. 

 AA. Forewings with 8 and 9 separate. 

 B. Forewings with 7 and 8 stalked. 

 C. Male antennae with apical ^ 

 simple, female antennae 



simple ^.. Romopliylotis. 



CC. Antennae of both sexes pecti- 

 nated to apex Onceropyga. 



BB. Forewings with all veins sepa- 

 rate. 

 C. Hindwings with vein 6 absent ... Hestiochora. 

 CC. Hindwings with vein G present. 

 D. Hindwings with vein 4 ab- 

 sent FoUnnisus. 



DD. Hindwings with all veins 



present ... Procris. 



Family LIMACODID^. 



Nervicompressa. 



Nerviconipressa, Baker, Nov. Zool., 1904, p. 389. 



This genus, of which Mr. Bethune-Baker describes six 

 species from New Guinea, is remarkable for the peculiarly dis- 

 torted neuration of the forewings. Whether it is correctly 

 referred to this family I cannot determine, as I have been un- 

 able in my solitary example to ascertain whether there are 

 two internal veins in the forewing. 



Nervicompressa dubia. 



Nervicompressa cluhia, Baker, Nov. Zool., 1904, p. 391, 

 pi. iv., f. 19. 



N.Q., Kuranda, in May ; one bred male, in perfect con- 

 dition, received from Mr. F. P. Dodd. 



MOMOPOLA. 



Momopola, Meyr., Tr.R.S.S.A., 1891, p. 190. 

 Tetraphleps, Hmps., Moths Ind. 1, p. 383. 

 In my tabulation (Tr.R.S.S.A., 1904, p. 240) these names 

 were intended to be bracketed opposite the initial "D." 



MOMOPOLA LOXOGRAMMA. 



Parasa loxogramma, Turn., Tr.R.S.S.A., 1902, p. 193.
