Genus BAMBALINA. 



Male : fore wings shorter and more triangular than in Eumeta, the costa more 

 arched towards the end, exterior margin more oblique ; cell broader and shorter 

 posteriorly ; discocellular more angulated ; submedian with the curved upper branch 

 from near the middle, lower basal branch not apparent : hindwing short, exterior 

 margin convex ; cell broader and longer posteriorly ; discocellular more angulated ; 

 two upper median branches on a footstalk beyond the cell. Body and legs laxly 

 pilose ; antennge bipectinated.

Oiketicus {Cryptothelea) consorta, Templeton, Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. 1846, p. 40, pi. 5, fig. 5-7; 

 Westwood, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond. 1854, p. 235, pi. 36, fig. 3. 



Male. Wings uniformly brown. Body brown, covered with coarse long brown 

 hairs, anal segments yellow with dark margins ; anterior legs with marginal brown 

 hairs, posterior legs nearly naked, middle legs intermediate in this character ; 

 antennge dark brown. 



Expanse If inch. 



Larval case of a lengthened conical shape, formed of compact greyish-white 

 silk, occasionally with a few particles of twigs on the surface. 



" Larva feeds on Pamplemos bush (Citrus decumana)." (Templeton.) 



Genus DAPPULA. 

 Male. Wings sparsely covered with coarse short hair-like adpressed scales : 

 forewing elongated, triangular ; apex produced, exterior margin very oblique ; cell 

 extending two-thirds the wing, lower part shortest; costal vein widely separated 

 from the margin ; first subcostal branch emitted at one-third before end of the cell, 

 second at one-ninth, third trifid ; discocellular inwardly oblique, bent near upper end 

 and in the middle, emitting a discoidal veinlet from the middle angle and another 

 from the lower end, which join together and extend to the base ; radial from upper 

 angle of discocellular ; two upper median branches from angle at end of the cell, 

 the two lower branches from angles obliquely below end of the cell ; submedian with 

 a short upper branch curved inwards from two-thirds its length, and a short spurred 

 lower loop also from near the base : hindwing short, triangular, apex produced, 

 exterior margin concave, anal angle convex ; cell broad ; a forked veinlet emitted 

 within the cell ; median branches fi-om angles obliquely below end of the cell. Body 

 long, somewhat slender, pilose, abdomen laterally tufted; antenna pectinated to 

 about half the length, serrated thence to the tip ; forelegs long, with marginal hairs, 

 and a strong sharp spur from base of tibiee ; tarsi and hindlegs nearly naked.
