Felder and Rogenliofer record tlieir type of Penthina'^ lu- 

 guhri's from " fl. Aniazonas {Bafes)^ The specimen is 

 labelled " 276 " and " B. in cop." It is on a long iron pin, 

 wliereas Bates used short English pins, and the evidence is 

 very strong that tliis is anotlier of the very numerous mistakes 

 in locality-labels which pervade the collection ostensibly made 

 by the * Novara ' expedition, but which was obviously put 

 together by purchase and otherwise from many widely 

 scattered sources. The specimens labelled Bates Coll. could 

 have been obtained in no other manner, as Mr. Bates did 

 certainly not accompany the expedition.

 Opa^vf = short ; ■yci)i't'a = an angle.) 



Type ( (J ) Brachygonia angulicostana, Wlsm. 



Aiitennce less than half the length of the fore wings ; (J 

 stout, scarcely pubescent ; basal joint somewhat enlarged. 

 Palpi short, appressed to the face ; median joint moderately 

 clothed with appressed scales ; terminal joint slightly ex- 

 posed. Head slightly rough above. Thorax smooth. Fore 

 icings elongate, slightly widened outwards ; costa shortly 

 angulatcd at the extreme base, straight beyond, male without 

 a fold, apex rounded ; termen oblique, slightly convex, tornus 

 rounded. JS^eiiratiun, 12 veins, all separate; 2 from middle 

 third of cell ; 3 slightly recurved and closely approximate to 

 4 at its origin ; 7 to termen. Hi7id loings rather triangular, 

 apex rounded, termen slightly rounded. Neuration, 8 veins ; 

 3 and 4 connate ; 5 bent over towards origin of 4 ; 6 and 7 

 almost coincident towards their base. Abdomen somewhat 

 stout; genital segments {^) concealed in a circular chitinous 

 pouch ; uncus present. Legs smooth. 



This genus, which agrees in neuration with Tortrix, L., 

 differs in the short abrupt angle at the base of the fore wings 

 and in the almost even width of the w ings. The very short 

 antenna? and the unusual form of the anal appendages seem 

 to justify the creation of a new genus for its reception.
