t^nte. — The foie-win{f of nearly all the species iu this family con- 

 tains sixteen areolets, which Germar distinguishe.« by the following 

 names: — one primitive areolet; one front areolet ; six discoidal 

 areolets ;' and eight marginal areolets. 'J?he flap is at the base of 

 the hind border of the hind wing, and can be folded . beneath. In 

 the foie-wing there is a small corresponding part which I have 

 named the fore-flap, but it does not fold. The lii-st cross-vein forms 

 the base of the second marginal areolet, and the second forms the 

 base of the third ; the third forms the base of the fifth, the fourth of 

 the seventh, and the fifth of the eighth. The angles mentioned are 

 outward, and are formed by the base ol' each cross-vein.
