242 LEPIDOPTERA HETEROCERA 
wing with costa somewhat arched, apex moderate, termen smooth, obliquely curved, cell one-half, 
DC? incurved, becoming oblique, SC! from cell, anastomosing at a point with C, well removed 
from SC?, SC? normal, R! well separate, M! well separate; hindwing with termen rounded, very slightly 
prominent in middle, but with no distinct bend or angle, cell one-half, DC? curved, becoming rather 
strongly oblique, C bent near base, anastomosing at a point with cell, then strongly divergent, SC? con- 
nate or short-stalked, M! widely separate. 
Early stages unknown. 
A very specialized development of Cymatoflex.

Characters. — Face smooth. Palpus in both sexes short, second joint shortly rough-scaled, 
third joint minute. Tongue weak. Antenna shortly bipectinate to nearly simple, ciliated, varying in both 
sexes. Pectus slightly hairy. Femora glabrous. Hindtibia in both sexes with terminal spurs only. 
Abdomen not crested. Forewing with costa slightly arched or nearly straight, apex moderate or rather 
sharp, termen smooth, oblique, gently curved or nearly straight, cell about one-half, DC? more or less 
curved. SC! from near apex of cell, or from base of stalk of SC?*, free, or anastomosing with or running 
into C, SC? normal, sometimes anastomosing with SC!, R! stalked, M! connate, closely approximated 
or very shortly stalked; hindwing with apex rounded, termen moderately to rather strongly rounded, 
tornus moderate, cell less than one-half, DC oblique, at least posteriorly, C shortly appressed to or 
anastomosing with cell near base, then diverging, SC? stalked, M! short-stalked, occasionally connate. 
Early stages unknown. 
Probably related to Microloxia, but differing in the loss of the frenulum and in the short palpus. 
Except in the antennal structure, there is little variation of moment, and even the facies of the species is 
in general very uniform. Africa furnishes most of the species, and as the material which we have seen 
1) Warren cites, as type of .Mixocera, « indecrefata, Walker », but we have positive information from Mr. Warren himself that he misidentitied 
Walker's species — as is also shown by the characters which he assigns to it. We therefore suppose we are justified in explaining the type of the genus to 
be Parvulata, Walker — indecretafa, Warren, and so in employing it in the sense intended by its author. Atthe same time we would urge the great 
importance of selecting as genotypes correctly-determined species, and of course the ones from which the author is actually describing. It is of course 
preferable to make the characterization from the actual name-type of the species, but where this cannot be done, and any shadow of uncertainty of deter- 
mination exists, the expedient which we have adopted under CA/orosterr Za should be resorted to, of giving the genotype an alternative name.
