 of rays. The palpi are quite distinct, but scarcely extend beyond the 

 hairs of the face.

Mr. Angas having figured the female of this interesting species in 

 his plate of Amazoolu Lepidoptera (fig. 1 3), I have represented the 

 more remarkably-formed male. 



The antennae of the male are 32-jointed, each of the fourteen basal 

 joints emitting four rays, the second ray in one joint and the first of 

 the following joint being close together, andonly gaping at the tip : one- 

 third of the antennae at the tip is simple ; the rays are set on at right 

 angles, lying flat. The antennae of the female are very shortly pec- 

 tmated on each side, except about one-fourth of the length at the tip. 

 The veins of the wings differ from those of the typical Sattirnice in 

 having the outer branch of the post-costal vein arising from the middle 

 of the transverse veinlet which closes the discoidal cell, and the two 

 small vitreous spots, forming the angulated spot above described, rest 

 on the outside of the veinlet, being divided from each other by the 

 outer branch of the post-costal vein.
