Collzsis mimica, Warren, Novit. Zool. Vol. 4. p. 37 (1897). 
SEcrTION II. — Forewing with SC! and R! not stalked, antennal pectinations short 
(gen. div. ?).

176. GENUS OMPHACODES, WARREN 
Omphacodes. Warren, Novit. Zool. Vol. r, p. 396 (1894) (sec. cit. typ.). 
Characters. — Face smooth. Palpus slender, third joint in both sexes smooth, exposed, 
moderate, in Q often long Tongue short and slender (in elegans apparently wanting). Antenna not 
long, in gf bipectinate to about two-thirds with long or rather long branches, in Q lamellate with long 
teeth (type species) or subdentate (in a few species bipectinate), minutely ciliated. Hindtibia in gf 
dilated, with hair-pencil, in both sexes with all spurs well developed. the medians usually the longer. 
Abdomen not crested. Forewing with costa slightly arched or nearly straight, apex moderately sharp, 
termen smooth, oblique, gently curved or nearly straight. cell about one-half, DC incurved, becoming 
oblique, SC! from cell, or connate, sometimes even stalked, nearly always anastomosing with or running 
into C, SC? normal, R! stalked or connate, M! separate (well separate in type); hindwing with termen 
usually rounded, tornus moderately pronounced, basal expansion of costa strong, cell not quite one-half, 
DC? oblique posteriorly, C anastomosing strongly, usually to near end of cell, then rapidly diverging, 
SC* stalked, M! rather well separated (direcía), or approximated, connate or stalked (the African species)

Early stages unknown. 
Distinguished from Collesis by the longer palpus and the subcostal venation. The species are 
usually of smaller size. the wings less broad, etc. Some of them are superficially of precisely the colour 
and facies of the types of Prasimocyma and Syndromodes, in Group V. On the application of the name 
Om$hacodes, see under Rhiadinomphax. 
Type of the genus : Omfhacodes direcía (Walker) — Nemoria directa, Walker (1894). 
Geographical distribution of species, — Indis, E. and 5. Africa. 
I. O. directa (Walker). N. India.

Nemoria gracilis, Butler, Ill. Het. Coll. Brit. Mus. Vol. 7, p. 21, 104, t. 136, 
f. 4 (1889) (nov. syn.) 1). 
Euchloris gracilis, Hampson, Fauna Ind. Moths, Vol. 3, p. 498 (1895). 
1) Walker's type is in wretched condition, and has been wrongly determined by Hampson and Swinhoe, see Microloxía indzcrefata ; but the 
Structural characters make the identi&cation 2s heze given an absolute certainty.
