(This is a section of Zizea having the wings tufted and narrower than 
in Zinea.) 
Head and face rough (as in Zivea), tongue very short. Maxillary 
palpi folded ; labial palpi drooping, with the terminal joint more than half 
as long as the second, which has a few bristles beneath; eyes globose ; 
no ocelli. Antennae two-thirds as long as wings, filliform. Anterior 
wings with raised tufts of scales, the tufts generally rather brightly 
coloured ; lanceolate, narrower than in Zizea ; the costal vein attains the 
margin before the middle; discal cell closed by a straight distinct discal 
vein, which gives off four branches, two of them to the costal and two to 
the dorsal margin, one of the latter near the apex. The subcostal attains 
the costal margin, giving off a long branch before the middle and a shorter 
-one near the end of the cell; the median is three branched, the two last 
arising together from the end of the cell; submedian simple, fold 
thickened at the end. 
Posterior wings linear, lanceolate ; costa excised from the middle to 
the tip? the costal vein attains the margin about the middle ; the sub- 
costal is straight to the margin before the apex; the cell is closed by a 
curved discal vein which gives off two branches, one to the apex, the 
other below it; the median vein is three branched, the terminal one 
having a common origin with the lower discal branch ; the two others 
arise from the apical half of the cell. Ciliae long ; submedian and 
‘internal obsolete.

Pale gray, with intermixed brown scales. Head hoary ; a small 
scattered patch of raised golden scales within the costal margin near the
