ViracMa, Moore, Lep. Ceylon, i. p. 104 (1881). de Niceville, Butt, of India, iii. p. 476 (1890). 



Eyes hairy. Forewing, vein 12 ends on the costa some little distance beyond the 

 end of the cell, 11 emitted from the cell at two-thirds from the base, 10 in the male 

 from the upper end, in the female from some distance before the end, 9 long, from 

 before the middle of 7, 6 from the upper end, discocellulars upright, both are concave, 

 vein 3 from some little distance before the lower end of the cell, sub-median nervure 

 very sinuous in the male, straight in the female ; wing somewhat triangular, outer 

 margin oblique, hinder margin very sinuous in the male, convexly produced towards 

 the base and furnished beneath with a broad tuft of lonar hairs, the roots of the hairs 

 being on the margin. Hindwing with the discocellulars outwardly oblique, of 

 equal length and nearly in a straight line, vein 3 emitted just before the lower end of 

 the cell, a large, pear-shaped, roughened, glandular patch, its lower end directed towards 

 the base of the wing, extends slightly into the discoidal cell, and covers the bases of 

 the sub-costal nervules, reaching exactly to the point where the middle discocellular 

 arises ; the palpi is much shorter and more slender in the male than in the female ; the 

 tail is short and filamentous in both sexes ; the larvte feed on different fruits, they are 

 internal feeders, eating the seeds.
