Forewlng, vein 12 ends ou costa well before end of cell, discocellulars inwardly 

 oblique in a straight line, the lower a little the longer, the cell a little less than two- 

 thirds the length of the costa, vein 3 from one-sixth before lower end of cell, 2 from 

 one- third from the base; costa arched, apex truncate, its termination somewhat acute, 

 in the female the outer marsrin is ana-led at the end of vein 4. The outer and hinder 

 margins of equal length. Hindwing with vein 5 fairly well developed, discocellulars in 

 an even, gentle, inward curve, the lower the longer, vein 3 emitted from close to 

 lower end of cell, 2 from about one-third before the end, outer margin angled between 

 the ends of veins 6 and 7. Antennae a little more than half the length of the costa, 

 rlub moderate, short, curved, tip blunt; palpi porrect, densely clothed, third joint 

 .stout, short, blunt; hind tibiae with two pairs of spurs, and in the male with a dense 

 recumbent tuft of hairs at the base of the fore coxae. 



Type, Achlyodes sura, Moore = Pterygospidea angulata, Felder ; closely allied to 

 the genus Abarathi, differs chiefly in its truncate forewing, its angled hindwing and in 

 tlie nature of the tuft of hairs at the base of the forelesrs in the male.
