GENUS 12, TYPE 



pronubana, Hb. 11 



Adkin and Mansbridge 



The long ductus bursae seems to connect this with species 

 in the genus Ar chips, but the male genitalia does not bear 

 this out. 



Valva reduced; sacculus elaborate, a long spine beyond 

 the middle, followed by a short one, apex rounded and free; 

 transtilla a strong bridge produced and lob^d at either side. 

 Uncus broad, indent. JMceagus hardly curved, protrudes 

 from a pair of long anellus lobes, spined at the apex. 



Ductus bursse long, slender; signum very small, 

 dentate, double pointed. 



GENUS 13. Amelia, Hb. TYPE viburniana, Fab. 

 Amelia palleana, ///;. 11 



The elaboration of the gnathos suggests a separate genus 

 for these species. 



Valva broad; sacculus strongly thickened, transtilla 

 sides almost parallel. Uncus broad, rounded above; gnathos 

 pointed, before the junction with the tegumen at either side 

 is a long lobed arm. ^Edoeagus short, with protruding 

 central spine, apex with obtuse spine; cornuti long, 

 slender, 2. 



Ovipositor flattened normal. Signuni long, slightly 

 dentate, base lobed. 



Amelia viburniana, Fab. 5 3 



Cabinet specimens of this and palleana when similar in 

 colour can easily be determined by examination of the 

 generally protruding uncus which will show either indent 

 or rounded. 



Valva short, tapered; sacculus tips free, pointed; 

 transtilla indent, lobes strongly spined. Uncus deeply 

 emarginate above; gnathos pointed, at either side is a 

 strongly dentate arm. ^Edoeagus broad; cornuti absent.
