CONTARINIA Roild. 



This genus, as at present limited, may be recognized by the nearly 

 equal nodes of the male antennae each with but one circumfilum. 

 The wing-s are rather long and narrow, the length usually being 

 twice that of the width [pi. 2)7, fig"- 6]. The claws are simple and 

 the basal clasp segment of the male lacking the conspicuous sub- 

 triangular apical process so characteristic of Dentifibula.
