 length of costa ; male with a costal fold; vein 12 reaching costa 

 well hefore the end of cell ; discocellulars siiberect ; vein 5 nearer 

 to 6 than to 4 ; vein 3 shortl_v before end of cell, more than twice 

 as far from 2 as from 4 ; vein 3 more than twice as far from end of 

 cell as from base of wing. Hind wing : outer margin crenulated ; 

 vein 7 well before the end of cell ; discocellulars and vein 5 barely 

 traceable ; vein 3 shortly before end of cell : vein 2 only slightly 

 nearer to end of cell than to base of wing. Hind tibiae slightly 

 fringed and with two pairs of spurs.

Nearest to Lignijoatolu, Mab., with which it agrees in neuration, 

 except that the veinlet in the cell terminates only just beyond vein 3, 

 and that vein 2 of the fore wing is considerably nearer to the base 

 of the wing. The antennae are longer and have the club more l)ent 

 round. The palpi are similar. The hind wing is quite a different 

 shape, being much produced in the submedian area, wliile in LUjny- 

 ostola it is much produced in the subcostal area. The anal lobe is 

 also comparatively inconspicuous, the outer margin not being excised 

 just before it.

Type, jjemphiyargyra, Mab. 



Antennae : club moderate, bent into an even curve, tapering to a 

 fine point. Palpi porrect, divergent, third joint slender and naked. 

 Fore wing : inner and outer margins subequal ; cell more than two 

 thirds the length of costa ; vein 12 reaching costa well before the 

 end of cell ; veinlet in cell just before vein 5 ; discocellulars in- 

 wardly oblique, subequal, the middle one slightly convex; vein 3 

 shortly before end of cell, about three times as far from 2 as from 

 4 ; vein 3 twice as far from end of cell as from base of wing. Hind 

 wing distinctly lobed ; vein 7 well before end of cell, twice as far 

 from 8 as from 6 ; discocellulars and vein 5 barely traceable ; vein 3 

 immediately before end of cell ; vein 2 considerably nearer to end of 

 cell than to base of wing. 



Male with a costal fold. Hind tibiae den?ely fringed, and with 

 two pairs of spurs, the upper pair short.
