January, 1871.) 169 
Avopia (p. 286). 
Palpi shorter, slightly recurved, filiform, middle joint with appressed scales, 
compressed, terminal joint shorter. 
With ocelli. 
Anterior wings narrowed from the middle, with twelve ribs, veins seven and 
eight springing one after the other out of vein six. 
Posterior wings not as broad as the anterior wings, elongate trapezoidal, with 
long-produced apex, vein three proceeding from before the hinder angle of the 
cell, veins six and seven separate, cilia more than twice as long as the breadth of the 
posterior wings. 
This contains only the single species— 
Bifractella. 
SiroTroca (p. 287). 
Middle joint of the palpi beneath with standing-out scales, not furrowed, 
terminal joint longer, aciculate. 
With ocelli. 
Anterior wings very long and narrow, posteriorly long-pointed, with twelve ribs, 
veins seven and eight springing one after the other out of vein six. 
Posterior wings narrower than the anterior wings, oblong, with very long pro- 
truding apex, vein three proceeding from before the hinder angle of the middle cell, 
veins six and seven on one stalk, cilia more than twice as long as the breadth of 
the posterior wings. 
This contains only the single species— 
Cerealella. 
Procuevusa, (p. 288). 
Palpi short, slightly recurved, filiform, with appressed scales, terminal joint 
shorter than the middle joint, pointed. 
Anterior wings narrow, posteriorly pointed, veins seven and eight springing one 
after the other out of vein six. 
Posterior wings very narrow (narrower than the anterior wings) with long- 
produced apex, veins three and four from one spot, as also veins six and seven, cilia 
more than three times as long as the breadth of the posterior wings. 
This genus comprises only three (rather discordant) species. 
Subocellea, Inopella, Osseella. 
Ereatis (p. 295). 
Palpi recurved, middle joint compressed, beneath with no longitudinal furrow. 
With ocelli. 
Anterior wings long-pointed, with twelve ribs, veins seven and eight on one 
stalk, cilia at the base with mealy scales. 
Posterior wings nearly as broad as the anterior wings, elongate trapezoidal, 
with long-produced apex, veins six and seven remote at their origin, vein three 
proceeding from far before the hinder angle of the middle cell, cilia almost twice as 
long as the breadth of the posterior wings.
