Genus NORA. 



Eutlialia (subgen. Nora), de Niceville, Joutd. Bombay N. H. Soc. 1893, p. 44. 



Male. Wings short, exterior margins slightly scalloped. Foreiving very short ; 

 costa regularly arched, apex obtusely pointed, exterior margin almost erect, very 

 sUghtly concave in the middle, posterior margin straight ; first subcostal branch 

 free in the male, anastomosed to the subcostal in the female, emitted at about one- 

 half, and second at about one-fifth before end of the cell, third immediately beyond 

 the cell, fourth and fifth at three-fourths beyond ; discocellulars short, upper angled 

 close to subcostal, radials from the angles; cell open. ffijicZit^in^ triangular; anal 

 angle pointed ; precostal spur bent acutely outward at its middle ; furnished with a 

 shining patch of black glandular scales* occupying the basal interspace of the 

 subcostals and radial, and bounded anteriorly by the costal vein ; — these scales, as 

 seen under the microscope, are of a slightly lengthened battledore shape, twice as 

 long as broad, and with even tips ; cell open ; submedian very densely covered with 

 fine hairs. Body very robust; head large; palpi compactly clothed, apex stout, and 

 bluntly pointed ; antenna with a lengthened club ; eyes naked. Sexes dissimilar.

 Eutlialia discispilota, Moore, Froc. Zool. Soc. 1878, p. 831, 9 . 



Male. Upperside very dark purpurescent-brown, almost black ; cilia alternated 



* This patch is not so dense as in Cynitia, the scales are shorter, and are not raised above the 

 surrounding area, as is the case in Cynitia. Mr. de Niceville's -wood-cut figure Q.c. p. 44) of this patch 

 shows it as extending only from the base of the second subcostal, wheieas it is actually bounded by the 

 costal vein.
