here, while the true CEnochromids fall in series I; Cleora and 
Ripula have doubly pectinate antennae, the pectinations al- 
ternately scaled and naked. Cleora may be ancestral both to 
the Cleora group of this series and the Melanolophia group of 
the first, the inner pectinations having disappeared in one case 
and the outer in the other. Ripula has no obvious affinities. 
The diurnal forms Epelis and Ematurga seem to be separately 
derived from something near Itame, and should not be combined 
in a single genus, as has been commonly done, following Hulst in 
Dyar’s list. The following grouping is largely artificial and for 
the convenient tabulating of some characters only. 
Synopsis of groups. 
Pectinations basal 
Sculpture strong on pectinations, setae of type 2 apical, not 
strong Group A 
Sculpture weak on pectinations; setae subapical and obsoles- 
cent, lost among the setae of type 3 Group B 
Pectinations central or apical 
Strongest seta of type 2 subapical, short and weak as a rule, 
when near the apex lost among a mass of longer setae of 
type 3. 
Subapical seta strong, comparable with the apical . Group C 
Subapical seta less than half as long as the apical and weak, 
but distinct Group D 
Subapical seta not recognizable, lost in the setae of type 3 
or (more probably) absent Group E 
Pectinations ending in a strong and conspicuous apical seta 
No subapical or dorsal seta, only the apical type-2 seta 
present Group F 
Subapical seta well-marked, no dorsal seta 
Pectinations apical Group G 
Pectinations central Group H 
Subapical seta strong; a few, at least, of anterior pectinat- 
ions with a third dorsal seta at about a third their 
length Group I
