65. GENUS SPANIOCENTRA, NOV. GEN., PROUT 
Spaniocentra, nov. gen. l'rout. 
Characters. — Face smooth. Palpus rather long, especially in Q, second joint close-scaled, 
reaching well beyond frons, third joint smooth-scaled, in c* moderate, in Q long. Tongue present. 
Antenna rather short, in cf bipectinate to beyond one-half with moderate branches, a considerable 
apical portion merely with short cilia, in Q minutelv ciliated. Pectus somewhat hairy. Hindtibia in c 
not dilated (except in undz/erata), in both sexes with terminal spurs only. Abdomen with small, narrow 
crests. Hindwinz with marked basal expansion, frenulum wanting in Q. Forewing slightly arched at 
base and distally, nearly straight between, apex acute, termen smooth, oblique, slightly curved 
(in undiferata very strongly oblique posteriorly), cell less than one-half, DC? incurved, DC? somewhat 
curved, becoming oblique, SC! free, SC? stalked to bevond SC?, R! connate or stalked, M! sepa:ate; 
hindwing with termen waved, produced to a small tooth at R!, and with a still slighter one at R?, tornus 
pronounced, cell short, DC? obliquely curved, DC? arising distally, usually rather straight and not very 
oblique, C shortly or moderately appressed to cell, always diverging before middle, SC? stalked, 
M! usually short-stalked, sometimes connate or approximated (Pl. 2, Fig. 16). c genitalia : uncus 
abruptly tapering, with short socii, gnathos pointed, harpe with a dentate plate on the inner side, penis 
pestillate, zedeeagus covered with large spines, vesica with a bunch of cornuli, 
LARVA. — Slender, twig-like, green, spiracles black, prothorax and eighth abdominal with a pointed 
prominence. Feeds on Loranthus (Moore. Lep. Ceyl. Vol. 3, p. 434). 
Pura. — Green, abdominal segments minutely black-speckled (Moore, loc. cit.). 
An offshoot of RAomborista, distinguished chiefly by the absence of the median spurs.
