vein 3 immediately before the end of cell; vein 2 considerably- 

 nearer to end of cell than to base of wing. Hind tibiae with two 

 pairs of long spurs, and in the male with a tuft of erect hairs 

 attached near the proximal end. 



In the female the fore wing is much more truncate, and the hind 

 wing is broader, and therefore appears less elongated.

Antennae rather short, less than half the length of fore wing ; 

 club robust, flattened, curved, terminating in a fine point. Palpi 

 very conspicuous, porrect ; second joint long, densely clothed ; ter- 

 minal joint short, obtusely conical. Fore wing : costa convex at 

 middle, and slightly concave before apex ; apex truncate and slightly 

 excised ; inner margin concave ; cell less than two-thirds the length 

 of costa ; vein 12 reaching costa well before the end of cell ; disco- 

 cellulars slightly inwardly oblique, the lower the longer ; vein 3 

 immediately before end of cell ; vein 2 almost equidistant from 3 

 and from base of wing. Hind wing : outer marginevenly rounded ; 

 discocellulars very faint ; vein 5 invisible ; vein 3 immediately before 

 end of cell ; vein 2 nearer to end of cell than to base of wing. 

 Hind tibiae with two pairs of spurs. 



Male with a slight costal fold.

" Allied to Anisochoria, Mab. Body slender. Palpi moderately 

 long, slender, porrect, appressed, with the second article heavily 

 clothed with hairs, and the terminal article slender. Fore wing 

 rounded at base, convex on middle of costa, and shghtly concave 

 before apex ; apex truncate, outer margin straight ; outer angle not 

 rounded, inner margin straight. Posterior wing subpyriform, and 

 very convex on oirter margin." {Holland, 1. c.) 



This genus agrees exactly with Anisochoria in shape of wings and 

 form of palpi ; the neuration I have had no opportunity to compare. 

 The two genera are hardly likely to be identical, as one is found 

 only in South America and the other in Africa.
