sprinkled with grey, second joint with moderate tuft mixed with dark grey, 
terminal joint much longer than second, with basal, submedian, and supra- 
median blackish bands. Abdomen grey, anal tuft of S grey-whitish. Forewings 
elongate, rather narrow, costa gently arched, apex obtuse, termen rounded, 
rather strongly oblique; 6 separate; grey, more or less speckled with whitish, 
with scattered dark fuscous scales ; a short fine black dash beneath costa near 
base; two narrow semioval blackish almost adjacent blotches extending on 
costa from about -1- to f, each followed by a raised tuft of scales whitish 
posteriorly ; stigmata indicated by irregular angular spots outlined by scattered 
blackish scales; a curved-angulated subterminal series of suffused irregular 
dark fuscous spots, and a marginal series of cloudy spots round posterior part 
of costa and termen: cilia light grey, basal half barred with ochreous-grey- 
whitish. Hind wings grey; cilia light grey. 
Rhodesia, Umtali, in January (Janse); two specimens. 
lo chares n.g. 
Head with appressed hairscales; ocelli posterior; tongue developed. An- 
tennae I , basal joint elongate, without pecten. Labial palpi very long, second 
joint long, subascending, densely scaled with rough projecting scales above 
and slightly rough scales beneath, terminal joint erect, half second, scaled, 
pointed. Maxillary palpi very short, filiform, appressed to tongue. Posterior 
tibiae clothed with long rough hairs above. Forewings with 2 from angle, 
2-5 tolerably approximated, 7 absent, 1 1 from middle. Hind wings i, trapezoidal^ 
apex obtuse, termen faintly sinuate, cilia | ; 3 and 4 short-stalked, 5 somewhat 
approximated to 4, 6 and 7 nearly approximated towards base. 
Type festa. Perhaps allied to Mesophleps. To this genus is also referable 
stvaminis Wals. 
lochares festa n.sp. 
$ 17 mm. Head and thorax pale ochreous, dorsum tinged with ferruginous. 
Palpi ferruginous, base and apex whitish-ochreous. Abdomen whitish-ochreous

ochreous, veins irregularly lined or streaked with deep ferruginous, dorsal area 
suffused with ferruginous, some ferruginous suffusion towards costa posteriorly, 
and beyond cell, extending beneath vein 8 to apex ; discal stigmata represented

ochreous, at apex with a ferruginous bar. Hindwings ochreous tinged with 
fuscous; cilia ochreous-yellowish. 
Transvaal, Pretoria, in December (Janse); one specimen. 
Eporgastis n.g. 
Head with appressed scales, sidetufts projecting over forehead; ocelli small,

ciliated, basal joint elongate, without pecten. Labial palpi very long, curved, 
obliquely ascending, second joint very long, much thickened with dense rather 
rough scales beneath and more or less expanded with scales sometimes rough 
above, terminal joint half second, thickened with scales, pointed. Maxillary
