The Asiatic Hypercompa? in the British Museum form four 

 groups. The first, of H. longipennis, is distinguished by the slender 

 body and the narrow and elongated fore wings. In H. principalis 

 and H. equitalis, the body is rather slender, but the wings are 

 broader and less elongated. In H. histrio and H. plagiata, the 

 body is much thicker, and in the fourth group with H. imperialis it 

 is very thick.
