Palpi extended nearly three times the length of the head beyond it ; the first joint short, 
second joint somewhat flattened and enlarged towards the base ; the apical joint about half the 
length of the second, slender ; all thickly clothed with long, straight, hair-like scales : proboscis 
none : antennae of the male pectinated, of the female simple. Fore wings with the costa 
arched towards the base, straight beyond ; the apical margin oblique ; dorsal margin slightly 
bulged near the base : without a costal fold in the male : branches 7 and 8 of the fore wings 
from a common stem. Hind wings with the margin below the apex slightly indented; veins 
3 and 4 from the same point without a pedicle ; vein 5 separate, not bent over towards 
them near the base ; veins 6 and 7 arising from a short pedicle. Tibife hairy. Female with 
large abdomen, extending beyond the hind wings ; the fore wings darker and more suffused 
than those of the male, which are crossed by silvery streaks.

Synnoma Ijmosyrana. (Plate LXV. figs. 9 & 10.) 
Palpi three times the length of the head, profusely clothed with straight grey and black 
hair-like scales : antennjE grey and black, pectinated in the male. Fore wings nearly three 
times as long as wide — costa nearly straight; apical margin oblique — ochreous, profusely 
speckled with groups of black scales, and with some scattered steel-blue scales about the 
middle. On the costa are several short alternate black and yellowish- white spots, tending 
obliquely inwards, not outwards, as in the costal streaks of most of the Tortricina : two irre- 
gular oblique shiniug silvery fascite, one near the base and one at the middle of the wing, 
become less distinct as they recede from the costa ; the outer one is angulated in crossing the 
cell : cilia greyish white, tipped with ochreous. Hind wings and the basal half of their cilia 
purplish fuscous ; the points of the cilia yellowish grey. Abdomen black ; hind tarsi and anal 
tuft yellowish grey. Female with the abdomen larger and much longer than that of the male ; 
antennae simple : fore wings much darker than in the male, the black scales preponderating 
over the ochreous, and the silvery fasciae almost obsolete ; the cilia also darker. Legs black, 
the spurs of the tarsi whitish, and the tarsi spotted with whitish. 5 (J, 2 ? . Expanse of 
wings $ 16 millims., $ 20 millims.
