Unrecognised species. 



Syntomis lucta Luc, Proc. R. Soc. Queensland, 1901, p. 73. 

 Fam. NOTODONTID^. 

 Syntypistis,* n.g. 



Head with a crest of dense hairs. Eyes naked. Tongue 

 obsolete. Palpi moderate, ascending, not reaching middle of 

 face; second joint stout, well developed, evenly hairy; terminal 

 joint minute. Antenna? in £ with a double row of long pecti- 

 nations, apical \ simple. Thorax and abdomen not crested. 

 Posterior tibiae with two pairs of spurs. Forewings without 

 dorsal scale-tooth; vein 6 from upper angle of cell, 7, 8, 9, 10 

 stalked, no areole, 7 from 8 + 9 before 10. Hindwings with 3 

 and 4 separate, 5 from above middle of discocellulars, 6 and 7 

 stalked, 8 approximated to near end of cell. 



Closely allied to Statiropus Germar, but in the type of this genus, 

 S. fagi Linn., there is only one pair of spurs on posterior tibiae 

 according to Meyrick (Brit. Lep. p. 307). Hampson (Moths Ind. i. 

 p. 149) does not allude to the tibial spurs in his definition of 

 Stauropus. 



In my tabulation! this genus would be distinguished from 

 Teleclita by the origin of vein 7 of forewings before 8.
