It will be impossible to work out the distribution of this species and the next 

 correctly without an examination of the actual specimens referred to by various writers 

 in their local lists, because the authors of such lists, in recording Capila jayadeva and 

 Pisola zennara, have but rarely mentioned the sex of their specimens.

This genus, in our opinion, might well be merged in Orthophcetus, where the single 

 species would follow omeia, Leech. The fore wing in both sexes is banded as in the 

 female of Capila, and there is in addition a series of small white spots, one in each of 

 cells 4 to 8 or 5 to 8, independent of sex ; the male has no costal fold, but the 

 dorsum of the hind wing is folded under, and the tornus bears, near the end of 

 vein lb, a tuft of long hairs, and there is also a fringe of long hairs to that part of the
