162 LEPIDOPTERA HETEROCERA 
hair-pencil and moderate terminal process, median spurs present, the inner only long, terminals wanting 
or absolutely vestigial (Pl. 5, Fig. 13); in Q with four unequal spurs, the inner median long. Hindtarsus 
in gf rather short. Abdomen not crested. Frenulum in gj rather short and slender, from before weli- 
marked basal expansion, in Q wanting. Forewing with costa rather straight, apex moderately sharp, 
termen oblique, very slightly curved, cell less than one-half, usually produced apically, DC incurved, 
SC! free, SC? normal, R! usually stalked, R? from well above middle of cell, M! about connate ; hindwing 
with termen nearly smooth to subcrenulate, usually bent at R3, tornus pronounced, cell scarcely two-fifths, 
DC somewhat oblique posteriorlv, C appressed to cell to near one-half, with very brief anastomosis. 
then very rapidly diverging, SC? stalked, R? from very near R!, M! stalked. c genitalia : uncus pointed, 
with large rounded socii, gnathos pointed, harpe rounded, with sacculus extended, terminating at right 
angles, penis pestillate. Apparently related to the Hemifhea-group. 
LaRva. — Rather slender, head bifid, eighth abdominal segment with pointed prominence 
(Moore, Lef. Ceyl. Vol. 3, p. 428, t. 194, f. 3a). 
Probably derived from a form closely akin to Prasinocyma floresaria. Those systematists who are 
entirely hostile to generic characters derived from the c' alone would perhaps prefer to make it a 
section of that genus, as its other characters are mostly found in one species or another of Prasinocyma ; 
but the eusemóle (cf hindleg, unequal Q spurs, extreme Q palpus, apparently more constant and — at 
least sometimes — more pronounced anastomosis of C of hindwing with SC, and extreme position of R?) 
appears to us to justify the retention of the genus. It has also much in common with CArysochloroma.

1! CEnospila peristicta. nov. sp. — C, 35 mm. Face green. Palpus green, wbitish beneath. Vertex and proximal part of antennal 
shaft white; occiput green. Thorax and abdomen green dorsally, the latter with small white spots. Forewing green with costal edge snow-white, 
broidening gradually to middle (so as to reach nearly to SC) and narrowing again distally; lines white, lunulate-dentate : the antemedian at about 
one-third, indistinct: postmedian at about two-thirds, the lunules very indistinct, the teeth on veins very distinct, being punctuated by large pure 
white spots or dashes, accompanied proximally bv a slight darkening of the green ground-colour on the veins; cell-spot distinct, black, clouded over 
with red; terminal line represented by red-brown spots between the veins; fringe whitish (defective); hindwing similar, without antemed:an line or 
white costa. Underside much paler, unmarked, costa ot forewing whitish. Fak-Fak, Dutch New Guinea, 1700 feet, January-February, 1908 (A. E. Pratt). 
Type in coll. L. B. Prout. Nearest to (E. simflex, of which we only know the O. but larger, the terminal line reduced to spots, etc. A true 
CEnospili, hindtibia greatly swollen, inner median spur much swollen, the other thrce spurs vestigial, but none entirely wanting.
