Trans. Roy. Soc. S.A. 1932, p.194. 
Palpi very short, slender, closely appressed to face. Antennae of 
male bipectinate, apical third simple. Thorax with a rounded anterior 
crest. Forewings with no median cell, areole long with a strong pos- 
terior projection, 7 and 8 stalked, 9 connate, 11 from cell shortly before 
areole. Hindwings with small median cell, or none owing to posterior 
branch of median failing to chitinise, all veins separate. Type

This species appears to be close to Xylentes minima Houlbert 
from New Guinea (Oberthur, Lep. Comp. xi. p. PI. p. 80. f. 15).

KaTot;o(f>vX\os y with sharply pointed wings. 
Palpi moderately long (1), smooth, appressed to face; terminal 
joint minute. Antennae of male bipectinate, extreme apex simple. 
Thorax and abdomen smooth-scaled. Tibiae without spurs. Forewings 
narrow, sharply pointed, areole strongly projecting, median cell long 
and narrow, 7 and 8 stalked, 9 connate, 11 from near base of areole. 
Hindwings moderately broad at base, rapidly narrowing to apex, a 
triangular median cell, all veins separate. Differs from Xyleutes in 
the narrow wings and smooth thorax and abdomen.
