5. On the Classification of the Schoenobiina and Crambinee, 

 two Subfamilies of Moths, of the Family Pyralidoe. By 

 G. F. Hampson. 



[Received October 7, 1895.] 



The two subfamilies of Pyralidae, the Schoenobiince and Crambinee, 

 of which a classification is here given, have much resemblance to 

 each other in both superficial appearance and structure, and are 

 also equally nearly related to the Hydrocampince, all three sub- 

 famiUes being parallel developments from the primitive stock of 

 the Pyralidae, of which the more generalized Pyraustina and the 

 Scopariince are probably the nearest hving representatives.
