stigmalis a black spot without a seta, s. poststif/malis, a. infra- 

 stigmalis, two s. basales on one tubercle, s. propedalis, s. postpedalis 

 or s. ventralis. 



On the metathorax a small seta only on the left side on the place for 

 s. subdorsalis occurs. Where there are no other secondary setae 

 on the caterpillar, I think, I may conclude that s. subdorsalis in 

 other cases has disappeared from the thorax. A remnant like 

 that might be expected in the first place in a primitive animal. 

 On the mesothorax is a black spot in front of the s. basales. 



Abdomen 1. »S'. dorsalis^ s. subdorsalis, s. suprastig mails, s. in- 

 frastigmalis, two s. basales on one tubercle, between these and 

 the others a black spot without a seta, s. pedalis, s. ventralis. 

 (In connection with the pattern of the Tineidae it is not quite 

 improbable that the seta under the stigma agrees with s. post- 

 stigmalis and that the black spot represents the vanished s.infra- 

 stigmalis. T prefer, however, not to bring hypothetical suppositions 

 like these to expression in nomenclature). 



8egm. 2 = 1, but between the s. basales and s. pedalis is another 

 seta = s. propedalis (?) 

 „ 3, 4 = 2, but the black spot under s. infrastigmalis is wan- 

 ting and next to the already mentioned s. propedalis we 

 find on the base of the leg two s. pedales and also 

 s. ventralis. 

 „ 5, 6 = 3, but s. propedalis of segm. 2 is double, the s. pedales 

 are placed on the outside of the log, and s. basalis is 

 not doubled. 

 „ 7 = 2, but s. projyedalis is double and s. basalis single. 

 „ 8 = 2, but s. basalis is single. 



„ 9 = 2, but the s. dorsales and the s. subdorsales from the 

 left and right sides are situated on a median dorsal shield, 

 s. basalis is single. 

 „ 10. On the anal shield we find s. dorsalis, s. subdorsalis, 

 s. suprastigmalis from the left and right sides, further 

 s. infrastigmalis, s. basalis, s. pedalis, s. ventralis are present. 

 There is no trace of an 11th segment.
