136 LEPIDOPTERA HETEROCERA 
92. GENUS RHOMBOCHLORA, WARREN (PRAEC. SUBGEN.?) 
Rhombochlora. Warren, Novit. Zool. Vol. 16, p. 89 (1909). 
Characters. — Face smooth. Palpus in cf quite short (about as long as diameter of eye), 
rather slender, second joint shortly rough-scaled, terminal joint minute. Tongue present. Antenna 
scarcely over one- half, in c bipectinate to two-thirds with moderate branches, apex nearly simple, with 
single cilia. Pectus hairy. Femora glabrous. Hindtibia in cf dilated with hair-pencil, median spurs 
wanting. Abdomen with dorsal crests, somewhat as in Oosfila, etc., but rather less highly developed. 
Frenulum as in cf moderate, from before appreciable basal expansion. Forewing with costa arched, 
apex moderate, termen very feebly elbowed at R?, tornus pronounced, cell rather less than one-half, 
DC incurved, SC! free, SC? normal, R! short-stalked, R? from above middle of DC, M! approximated ; 
hindwing with apex pronounced, termen stronglv produced to.a blunt tail at R?, tornus pronounced, 
cell less than one-half, DC rather straight, oblique. C approximated to cell to near one-half, SC? stalked, 
M! connate., 
Early stages unknown. 
We have drawn up the above characterization from Warren's type, but have been quite unable 
to study it further or to compare it with the preceding; moreover the Q is unknown, and the status of 
the genus must remain for the present doubtful. Possibly not separable from Progonodes. 
Type of the genus : RAombochlora granulata, Narren (1909). 
Geographical distribution of species. — Amazons. 
I. R. granulata, Warren. Upper Amazon.

983. GENUS LOPHOCHORISTA, WARREN 
Lophochorista. Warren, Novit. Zool. Vol. r1, p. 22 (1904). 
Characters. — Face smooth. Palpus slender, second joint rather short. rough-scaled above 
and beneath. third joint in gf small, in Q greatly elongate. Tongue present. Antenna short, in both 
sexes bipectinate with long branches, apical one-third merely ciliated. 
Fic. 13 Pectus densely hairy. Femora hairv, hindfemur (at least in c) densely 
long-haired. Hindtibia in cg greatlv dilated, especially posteriorlv, with 
dense masses of hair, one long and one short terminal spur, medians 
A wanting (Fig. 1 3); in Q with a single pair of rather short, equal spurs. 
Hindtarsus in c abbreviated. Metathorax strongly tufted. Abdomen with 
strong, moderately compact crests. Hindwing with appreciable basal 
expansion, frenulum in cg arising before it, moderately strong, in Q 
wanting Wings smoothly scaled, somewhat hyaline. Forewing with costa 
straight proximally, slightly arched distally, apex moderate, termen 
faintly crenulate, curved, oblique, strongly so beyond M!, cell almost 
one-half, DC? usually deeply incurved, SC! free, SC? normal, R! longish-
