Paramelora lychnota, Lower. 



{XanthorrJice lychnota, Lower. RL.S., N.S.W., 1900, 404 ) 

 I refer this species to this genus; fovea well defined. 



K-HYNCHOPSOTA, n. g. 



Face with appressed scales. Palpi very long, with appressed 

 scales, terminal joint concealed. Antennae of male bipecti- 

 nated to apex. Thorax smooth. Posterior tibiae moderately 

 dilated. Forewings without fovea ; 7 and 8 out of 9, 10 out 

 of 9 ; 11 connected with 9 at a point; 12 free; without 

 f o\ ea. Hindwings 5 absent, 6 and 7 separate ; 8 closely ap- 

 l^roximated to cell in middle with a long pencil of hairs lying 

 at base beneath. 



A peculiar genus, not very near any other in the group, the 

 long palpi and hairs on hindwings beneath are rather unusual 

 characters. Tlie single species bears considerable superficial 

 resemblance to Criuin'phila rawnsfriella. Walk. {Pi/?-aIiciifia).
