GENUS 15. TYPE 



The great development of the uncus and general 



modification demands a separate genus. 



Uncus long, articulated, apex indent; forming a 

 complete covering and protection. zEdoeagus prolonged at 

 the orifice into a broad shaft; cornuti very long, springing 

 from a common base. Ovipositor retractile . Bursa large, 

 delicate, spined.

 terminating in an obtuse point; transtilla strong, lobed at

 some distance apart. Cornuti about 14-16. 

 Ostium bilobed. 



ciliella, Hb. 2-1 



Valva broad, rounded, a roughly triangular plate at the 

 anal angle; transtilla a broad plate, truncate at either side,

 Ostium rather narrow, bilobed. 



GENUS 16. TYPE 



This very homogeneous genus has many distinctive 



characters. 



Valva broad, strong. Saccus divided. Costa often 

 separated, forming two upright arms spined at the apex; 

 transtilla more or less developed. /Edoeagus short, stumpy, 

 with wide orifice set with a series of diminishing spines. 



Ovipositor slightly retractile, narrow. Ostium in folds; 

 bursa in folds. 



implicitana, Wilk. J. W. M. 2-2 

 Valvula broad, point rounghly rounded; costa produced 

 i^pward, spined at the tip; sacculus rounded; transtilla a
