Note. — The fore-wing- of nearly all the species in this family con^ 

 tains sixteen areolets, which Germar distinguishes by the following 

 names: — one primitive areolet; one front areolet ; six discoidaj 

 areolets ; and eight marginal areolets. The flap is at the base oj 

 the hind border of the hind wing, and can be folded beneath. Iij 

 the fore-wing there is a small corresponding part which 1 hav( 

 named the fore-flap, but it does not fold. The first cross-vein form( 

 the base of the second marginal areolet, and the second forms tb< 

 base of the third ; the third forms the base of the fifth, the fourth oj 

 the seventh, and the fifth of the eighth. The angles mentioned ar(
