  The 
  Ethiopian 
  species 
  referred 
  by 
  authors 
  to 
  Acidia, 
  were 
  provisionally 
  placed 
  

   by 
  me 
  under 
  the 
  head 
  of 
  Philophylla 
  ; 
  but 
  after 
  the 
  removal 
  of 
  obnubila 
  and 
  

   coloniarum 
  to 
  Celidodacus, 
  there 
  remain 
  only 
  ocellata 
  (which 
  belongs 
  to 
  a 
  new 
  genus) 
  

   and 
  seychellarum, 
  which 
  on 
  account 
  of 
  its 
  eyes 
  certainly 
  cannot 
  be 
  ascribed 
  to 
  

   Philophylla. 
  This 
  last 
  genus 
  seems 
  therefore 
  to 
  be 
  absent 
  from 
  the 
  Ethiopian 
  

   fauna. 
  The 
  genera 
  of 
  this 
  group 
  must 
  be 
  disposed 
  as 
  follows, 
  with 
  a 
  modification 
  

   of 
  my 
  table 
  on 
  pp. 
  218-219 
  of 
  the 
  first 
  paper.

  The 
  present 
  new 
  genus 
  is 
  nearly 
  allied 
  to 
  Acidia 
  and 
  Philophylla, 
  differing 
  from 
  

  

  both 
  in 
  the 
  very 
  different 
  shape 
  and 
  venation 
  of 
  the 
  wings, 
  which 
  recall 
  that 
  of 
  the 
  

  

  Neotropical 
  genus 
  Parastenopa, 
  Hendel, 
  which 
  however 
  has 
  no 
  oc. 
  and 
  a 
  differently 
  

  

  shaped 
  pterostigma.
