SECTION I. 

 Forewing with two sub-costal nervules. 



Genus CHLIARIA. 



Cliliaria, Moore, Journ. As. Soc. Bengal, 1884, p. 32. de Niceville, Butt, of India, iii. p. 393 

 (1890). 



Eyes finely hairy. Foreicing with vein 12 sinuous, terminates on the costa above 

 the upper end of the cell, 11 emitted at one-third before the end of cell, is at once 

 bowed upwards close to 12; 10 emitted at one-fourth before the end; 8 and 9 absent, 

 7 runs to the apex of the wing, 6 from the upper end of discocellulars, 5 from near 

 the middle ; discocellulars slender, almost straight, upright, the lower rather the longer, 

 vein 3 from a little before lower end of cell, 2 from one-third ; wing triangular, costa 

 slichtly arched, apex sub-acute, outer margin slightly convex, hinder margin nearly 

 straio-ht. Hindiving with vein 8 arched at its base, then straight to the apex of the 

 wino-, 7 from near the upper end of cell, discocellulars slender, of equal length, the 

 upper outwardly oblique, straight, the lower upright, concave, vein 3 emitted a little 

 before the lower end of cell, apex of wing rounded, outer margin more or less oblique, 

 costa arched from near its base, 2 tails at the ends of veins 1 and 2, filiform, of 

 somewhat variable length ; the male without secondary sexual characters. 



Type, Hypolycsena othona, Hewitson. 



Note. — In his description of this genus, Moore says there are four sub-costal 

 nervules in the forewing, but, as pointed out by de Niceville, Moore counted the 

 terminal portion of the sub-costal vein (vein 7), and the upper discoidal nervule which 

 in this genus is emitted at the upper end of the discocellulars (vein 6) as sub-costal 

 nervules, stating that there was only one discoidal nervule.
