pointed at apex; extreme costal edge whitish: cilia pale grey, tips whitish. 
Hindwings grey, becoming dark grey posteriorly, costa suffusedly yellow- 
whitish ; cilia yellow-whitish, with an indistinct greyish line. 
Female.—92-98 mm. Head, palpi, and thorax yellowish-white. An- 
tenne whitish. Abdomen and legs white, anterior and middle pair light 
ochreous.  Forewings as in male, but hindmargin straighter; whitish- 
yellowish,, interspersed with pale-greyish ; costa suffusedly white: cilia 
white, base whitish-yellowish. Hindwings white, towards inner margin 
faintly suffused with very pale greyish; cilia white. 
Allied to H. «nea, but smaller, and distinguished in both sexes by the 
absence of yellow in the hindwings; in the male also by the conspicuous 
dark costal stripe; in the female by the pale yellowish forewings. 
Arthur's Pass; four specimens (1 male, 8 females) taken in a grassy place 
at about 4,500 feet, in January. 
CTENOPSEUSTIS, n. g 
Thorax smooth. Antenne in male jae ciliated. Palpi moderate, 
porrected, second joint roughly scaled. Forewings in male with strong 
costal fold. Hindwings broader than forewings, lower median vein with 
strong basal pecten. Forewings with 12 veins, 7 and 8 separate, 7 to hind- 
margin. Hindwings with 8 veins, 8 and 4 from a point, 5 approximated to 
4 at base, 6 and 7 from a point. Abdomen in male with genital uncus well 
developed.

Professor Fernald assures me that the genital uncus of the male (the 
value of which as a divisional character he has been the first to discover in 
this group) is never developed in the Grapholithide, and that this species (of 
which I sent him specimens) should therefore be included in the Tortricide, 
notwithstanding the pectination of the lower median vein, this latter struc- 
ture being indeed also found in GZnectra, which is certainly referable to the 
Tortricide. In this view I quite concur, and therefore place the species here, 
which involves the formation of a new genus for its reception as above, 
since it differs from Gnectra by the costal fold and separations of veins 7 
and 8 of the forewings, and from the rest of the family by the basal pecten 
of the hindwings. 
E»arxieHoga, Meyr. 
The characters given for this genus are in part quite erroneous ; this is 
in some measure due to my having mistaken my single specimen for a male, 
whilst it proves to be a female; I have since obtained several specimens of 
both sexes, and therefore give a fresh and more correct characterization of 
the genus, with some additions to the specifie description, as the species is
