TORTRICINA. 227 



The three genera forming this group are thus arranged : 



A. Anterior wings with the costa very slightly 

 arcuated in both sexes. 



a. Palpi as long as the head. 



b. With the middle joint of the palpi twice 



as long as the apical 1. ENDOPISA. 



B. Anterior wings with the costa sensibly arcu- 

 ated in both sexes. 



a a. Palpi longer than the head. 



b b. With the middle joint of the palpi twice 



as long as the apical 2. CARPOCAPSA. 



b b b. With the middle joint of the palpi 



more than three times as long as the apical 3. GRAPHOLITA. 



Genus I. ENDOPISA, GUENEE. 



Palpi as long as the head. Basal joint moderately stout, pyriform, 

 truncate ; apical obovate, slender, longer than the basal ; middle 

 curved, ascending, as stout as the basal, scarcely stouter beyond the 

 centre, twice as long as the apical. Maxillae stout, as long as the 

 palpi. Thorax robust, ovate. Anterior wings in length more than 

 twice the width. Costa regularly arcuated; apex obtuse; apical 

 margin suddenly concave below the apex, otherwise rounded ; dorsal 

 margin slightly rounded. The costal vein reaches the margin at the 

 middle ; subcostal nervures not equidistant. The discoidal cell re- 

 ceives a nervure originating between the first and second subcostal 

 nervures, and passing to the apical vein between the first and second 

 apical nervures. Posterior wings ample ; apex obtuse ; apical margin 

 concave ; dorsal margin entire ; basal angle slightly produced. Ab- 

 domen slender in the d , with a tuft at the apex ; stout in the $ , 

 with the apex suddenly acute. 



This genus was established by M. Guenee for the reception of 

 the two species (nigricana and proximana), the larvae of which 

 feed in Peas (Pisum sativum), whilst in a growing state ; but it 

 has been augmented in the present arrangement, by the addition 

 of several others, evidently congeneric, which have been hitherto, 

 but improperly (so far as structure is concerned), associated 

 with Dicrorampha. As at present constituted, this is a most 

 puzzling group, from the species bearing so close a resemblance 

 to each other, but we think them a very natural one. The 

 larvae of the added species are unknown, but they are supposed 

 to feed upon unripe growing seeds. That of E. Germarana feeds 

 in the hips of the Wild Rose.
