160 LEPIDOPTERA HETEROCERA 
I! Il. GeNUS STREPSICHLORA, WARREN 
Strepsichlora. Warren, Novit. Zool. Vol. 14, p. 136 (1987). 
Characters. — Face smooth. Palpus with second joint long, with closely appressed scales, 
third joint in cf moderate, scarcely more slender than second, in 9 rather longer than in cf. Tongue 
present. Antenna over one-half, in gf bipectinate to nearly four-fifths, with moderate branches, apex 
merely ciliated; in Q nearly simple. Pectus hairy. Femora glabrous. Hindtibia in cf rather long. 
dilated with hair-pencil in sheath, much as in HemitAiea, no process, in both sexes with all spurs. Tarsus 
not aborted. Abdomen slender, minutely crested. Frenulum in gf short, in Q wanting. Forewing 
broad, costa arched, apex squared, termen straight, little oblique, tornus pronounced, cell almost 
one-half£, DC strongly incurved, SC! from cell, anastomosing with C and sometimes with SC?, 
SC? normal, R! just separate, M! separate, hindwing with termen minutely toothed at R*, tornus 
produced, cell less than one-half, DC? very slightly incurved anterioily, becoming strongly oblique, 
C shortly approximated to cell near base, then very strongly diverging, SC? short-stalked, R? very 
characteristic, M! separate. 
Early stages unknown. 
Similar remarks apply to this as to the preceding genus; the dorsal crests are so slight as to be 
doubttully generic. 
Type of the genus : S/repsichlora aculilunata, Warren (1907). 
Geographical distribution of species. — New Guinea.

112. GeNUS OXYCHORA, WARREN 
Oxychora. Warren, Novit. Zool. Vol. 5, p. 236 (1898). 
Characters. — Face smooth. Palpus rather long, very slender, with appressed scales, third 
joint in cf elongate (Q unknown). Tongue present. Antenna in c bipectinate to nearly two-thirds, with 
strong, rapidly shortening branches. Pectus slightly hairy. Femora glabrous. Hindleg short, hindtibia 
dilated with hair-pencil, all spurs present. Abdomen not crested. Frenulum slender, colourless, arising 
from before well-marked basal expansion. Forewing with costa shouldered at base, then slightly arched, 
apex blunt, termen curved, oblique, cell almost one-half, produced apically, DC? very deeply inangled, 
becoming very oblique, SC! about connate, free i), SC? normal, R! short-stalked, M! widely separate; 
hindwing with costa rounded, termen rounded, slightly elbowed at R?, tornus not pronounced, 
DC? vertical or slightly oblique inwards, DC? excessively oblique, C anastomosing with cell at a point 
near base, SC? rather long-stalked, M! widely separate. 
Early stages unknown. 
1) In the type specimen, on the left wing only, SC! anastomoses at a point with SC?, quite near the apex. Warren, in diagnosing the 
genus, overlooked that this was a more asvmmetrical sport.
