Including Asamonea Carahv . , Simonella makes the sixth genus of the 

 sub-family Lyssomanae, which includes those attidae which have the eyes 

 in four transverse rows. Janus inyrmaciaeformis Tacz. is nearest to Sim- 

 onella, and Dr. Taczanowski, in describing that species, suggests that it 

 ought to constitute a new genus. It differs, however, from Simonella, in 

 that the first row of eyes occupies the whole of the face, and in the quad- 

 rangle of the eyes being longer than wide. Simonella is easily distin- 

 guished by its nodose form from the other genera of this sub-family. In 

 general appearac ce it most resembles Synemosyna Hentz.
