172 LEPIDOPTERA HETEROCERA 
ciliated. Pectus somewhat hairy. Hindtibia in gf dilated with hair-pencil, all spurs wanting (in 9 ?); 
hindtarsus in gf short. Abdomen apparently not crested. Frenulum in gf slender, from before basal 
expansion. Forewing with costa arched, apex prominent, termen smooth, oblique, curved, cell about 
two-fifths, DC incurved, SC! from cell, anastomosing shortly with C. SC? normal, R! separate, R? from 
above middle, M!approximated at origin to R?; hindwing with apex moderate, termen produced to a 
tail at R?; tornus pronounced, cell short, C anastomosing at a point near base, SC? stalked, R? from 
much above middle, M! stalked. 
Early stages unknown. 
An evident offshoot of Hemithea.

Characters. — Face smooth. Palpus quite moderate to long, second joint shortly rough-scaled, 
third joint in gf usually small, in Q quite moderate (the type species, etc.) to long (Pulmentaria, etc.), 
rather short in the American species. Tongue present. Antenna in C ciliated (usually evenly), in Q 
minutely ciliated. Pectus somewhat hairy. Femora glabrous. Hindtibia in C elongate, with sheath and 
hair-pencil, and two short terminal spurs (medians wanting); in Q with all spurs. Abdomen without or 
(especially in the African species) with two small dorsal crests. Frenulum in cf slender, from before 
basal expansion, in Q wanting. Forewing with costa gently arched, apex moderate, termen smooth, 
nearly straight or slightly curved, moderately oblique, cell rather short, DC incurved, SC! usually from 
cell (stalked in dorsicristata and afflictaria, and sometimes in wunilinea?), usually free, occasionally anastom- 
osing with C, SC? normal, R! connate or very shortly stalked, M! connate or very shortly stalked, 
exceptionally just separate; hindwing with termen weakly elbowed or quite rounded, very rarely with 
a definite angle, never tailed, cell short, DC somewhat incurved, C anastomosing with cell at a point 
near base, then rapidly diverging, SC? stalked, R? characteristic, M! stalked (except sometimes in the 
American species). c genitalia : uncus pointed, with slender socii of equal length (in Pulmeníar:za larger, 
bird's-head-shaped), gnathos almost atrophied, harpe rounded, typically with long clubbed scales 
and with a strong, angulated, scobinated projection on the inner margin; penis pestillate, widened 
above, with large striated cornulus (minute cornuli in julmeníaria); a pointed scobinated projection 
of the termination of the eighth sternite. 
Ecc. — Elliptical, flattened above and below; surface in viridata with hexagonal pattern, in 
subcroceata smooth, finely shagreened ; green, changing to yellowish (Burrows, Ent. Rec. Vol. 20, p. 131, 
t. ro, f. ri, 14; Dyar, Psyche, Vol. 8, p. 386).
