66 IL-EPIDOPTERA HEFPEROCERAX 
39. GENUS XENOZANCLA, WARREN 
Xenozancla. Warren, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond. p. 342 (1893). 
Characters. — Face smooth. Palpus in cf quite moderate, second joint short-scaled, third 
joint small. Tongue weak. Antenna in gf laminate, somewhat flattened. Pectus somewhat hairy. Hindleg 
in cf short, hindtibia dilated with hair-pencil, all spurs present. Abdomen with small crests. Frenulum 
developed. Forewing with costa arched, apex prominent, termen snbcrenulate, excised between apex 
and R?, sharply elbowed at R?, SC! from cell, anastomosing with C, SC? normal, R! not stalked, R* from 
above middle, M! separate; hindwing with termen crenulate, toothed at R! and R$, C touching SC at a 
point near base, rather gradually diverging, SC? connate, R? very characteristic, M! separate. 
Early stages unknown. 
A genus of uncertain atfinities, though indisputably belonging to this subfamily. We have seen 
no Q, and only two ccf, and as the cf hindwing shows just a suspicion of basal expansion, it is possible 
that our provisional location may need revision, One or two characters suggest a not impossible affinity 
with the African BatAycolpodes, etc. 
Type of the genus : Xenozancla versicolor, Warren (1893).

4O. GENUS XENOPEPLA, PROUT 
Xenopepla (Warren, Novit. Zool. Vol. 14, p. 210, indescr.). Prout, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist. (8). Vol. 6, 
p. 238 (1910). 
Characters. — l'ace smooth. Palpus in cf moderate, second joint with long, stiff. projecting 
hairs (directed forward) above and beneath, third joint small (Pl. 5). Tongue strong. Antenna 
in gf bipectinate with long branches (apex probably simple). Pectus somewhat hairy. Hindtibia in. C 
dilated with hairpencil and moderate terminal process, all spurs present. Abdomen not crested. 
Frenulum in cf moderately strong, hindwing without appreciable costal expansion. Forewing elon- 
gate, costa gently arched, apex moderate, termen entire, moderately oblique anteriorly, curving 
strongly in middle and becoming extremely oblique posteriorly, tornus rounded, cell fully one-half, 
DC incurved, SC! anastomosing with C, or free, SC? normal, R! connate or shortly stalked, M! connate 
or approximated; hindwing rather small and narrow, apex rounded, termen with a sinus between R! 
and R?, a rather pronounced though blunt tooth at R?, thence weakly sinuate to tornus, which is 
moderate, cell one-half, DC slightly curved, C anastomosing with SC briefly at a little distance from 
base, then rapidly diverging, SC? stalked, M! stalked or approximated. 
Early stages unknown. 
A remarkably distinct genus in its entire facies, vet structurally quite typically Hemitheine; 
except that the palpal hairs are abnormally long, we cannot point to any salient structural character. 
The 9 is unfortunately unknown, but will almost certainly possess a frenulum. 
Type of the genus : Xeuofepla bicuneala, Prout (1910).
