121. GENUS LOPHOCRITA, WARREN 
Lophocrita. Warren, Novit. Zool. Vol. r, p. 389 (1894). 
Characters. — Face smooth. Palpus in gf rather short, second joint quite shortly rough-scaled 
beneath, third joint in gf small. Tongue present. Antenna 1n c slightly subserrate, with fascicles of 
cilia. Pectus moderately hairy. Femora glabrous. Hindtibia in c little dilated, but with a long slender 
pencil of hairs, median spurs wanting (no doubt present in Q). Abdomen with strong curved crests. 
Frenulum in cf moderately strong, but arising from before a basal expansion of hindwing. Forewing 
with costa gently arched, almost straight between, apex rather prominent, termen smooth, slightly 
curved, strongly oblique, cell nearly one-half, DC incurved, SC! from cell, free, SC? normal, R! short- 
stalked, M! approximated; hindwing with termen slightly curved from apex to R?, there weakly tailed, 
thence subcrenulate, tornus pronounced, inner margin long, cell short, DC? incurved, C anastomosing 
o 
with cell at a point near base, then strongly diverging, SC? stalked, M! stalked. 
Early stages unknown. 
We have unfortunately seen no 9 of this genus, but it appears to be so clearly a mere modifi- 
cation of Hemithea, distinguished by the much more highly developed crests, that we have no doubt 
the Q will prove to have all spurs present. 
Type of the genus : Lojphocrita undifera (Walker) — TAhalera undifera, Walker (1894).

1) Motschulsky's diagnosis makes it quite certain that he was not dealing with a species of .Mega/oc/r/ora (as Warren, Novif. Zool. Vol. 2, 
p. 89, assumes), and highly probable that he had a /e»:tAea before him. That he considered Bremer's very bad figure of sfonsaria as similar to 
his own virédescentaréa shows little or nothing.
