fi. Genus Sarbia, nov.

Antennae as in Pyrrhopyge ; palpi also similar, but the third joint 

 even less prominent than in that genus, being almost entirely con- 

 cealed by the scales of the second joint. Fore wing : much as in 

 Plirrhopyge, but vein 3 more than twice as far from 2 as from 4. 

 Hind wing : cell very short, reaching to considerably less than half 

 across wing ; vein 3 far beyond end of cell, only about half as long 

 as vein 2 ; vein 2 almost equidistant from base of wing and end of 

 cell ; vein 7 well before end of cell, more than three times as far 

 from base of wing as from vein (3. Hind tibiae with two pairs of

Type, eximia. Hew. 



Antennae as in Pyrrhopyge. Fore wing : middle and lower disco- 

 cellulars subequal, inwardly oblique and in tlie same straight line ; 

 vein 2 remote from base of wing, about equidistant from vein 3 and 

 base of wing ; vein 3 twice as far from 2 as from end of cell. Hind 

 wing : vein 7 well before end of cell ; discocellulars distinct ; vein 5 

 from their middle ; vein 3 from end of cell ; vein 2 rather nearer to 

 end of cell than to base of wing. Hind tibiaa with only the terminal 

 pair of spurs.
