 are detailed in the table above. The male genitalia are similar to those of /. sindu.

 Ge, de Niceville, Jour. Bomb. Nat. Hist. Soc. 1895, p. 373. Type geta, de Nicev. 



A genus, for the present, containing one species only, allied to Matapa, from which 

 it is best distinguished by the sex-marks of the male. The latter are as follows : — On 

 the fore wing above, near the base of cell 2, an oval depression fringed on its inner edge 

 by a series of erecto-patent hair-scales ; the latter are blackish, becoming pale at the 

 base, and when viewed from above appear to entirely cover the oval depression, the 

 long axis of which reaches quite across the cell ; on the hind wing above a fringe 

 of long hair-scales along the basal half of vein 7, directed obliquely outward and 

 downward, and covering wholly or in part a pale patch of modified scales.
