FAM. GEOMETRID/ZE 229 
Early stages unknown. 
Affinities uncertain, c altogether unknown. May be a derivative of Nofthoterpna or Hemistola, but 
is very distinct in loss of median spurs and of tongue, etc.

184. GENUS LOPHOSTOLA, NOV. GEN., PROUT 
Lophostola, nov. gen. Prout. 
Characters. — Face smooth. Palpus in c rather short, in Q elongate, second joint long-haired 
below, in Q long, third joint in gf small, partly concealed, in Q moderately long. Tongue present. 
Antenna in both sexes nearly simple. Pectus somewhat hairy. Femora glabrous. (Hindlegs lost in both 
examples.) Abdomen with strong crests. Forewing broad, costa arched distally, apex blunt, termen 
convex, faintly waved. cell less than one-half, DC somewhat curved, SC! stalked to beyond R!, 
SC? normal, R! stalked, M! connate or short.stalked; hindwing with termen waved, bluntly toothed 
at R?, cell about two-fifths, DC rather oblique, C anastomosing quite shortly with cell, then rapidly 
diverging, SC? stalked, R? very characteristic, M! short-stalked. 
Early stages unknown. 
Very unfortunately, the unique gf is damaged at the base, but we can find no trace of frenulum ; 
the costal dilatation is strong. The crested abdomen is distinctive. otherwise the genus might have been 
suspected of some relationship to Hemistola. Its actual affinities are doubtful.

185. GENUS GONOCHLORA, SWINHOE 
Gonochlora. Swinhoe, Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. p. 548 (1904). 
Characters. — Face smooth. Palpus in c rather short. second joint shortly scaled, third joint 
minute. Tongue developed. Antenna in Q short, thick, lamellate, with strong clavate teeth. Hindtibia 
in gf slender, with terminal spurs only. Abdomen not appreciably crested. Forewing with costa 
somewhat arched, apex acute, termen subconcave below apex, projecting at R? to M!, thence extremely 
oblique, subconcave, cell scarcely two-fifths, DC somewhat incurved, oblique posteriorly, SC!? coincident, 
from stalk of SC?5, anastomosing strongly with or running into C, R! about connate, R? from above 
middle, M! just separate; hindwing diamond-shaped, but with apex rather obtuse, termen faintly crenu-
