MICROLEPIDOPTERA OF NEW GUINEA 
71 
Dynatophysis gen. nov. (fig. 614) 
Swards = strong, rpviJig = nature 
Head smooth. Ocellus posterior. Proboscis developed. Antenna 3 / 4 , 
scape elongate, flattened, not dilated, without a pecten. Labial palpus very 
long, recurved, slender, smooth, median segment hardly thickened 
towards the apex, compressed, terminal segment 1, acute. Maxillary 
palpus vestigial. Anterior leg normal (median and posterior legs missing). 
Fore wing without raised scale-tufts, lanceolate, narrow; lb furcate at 
base, 2 from angle, very short, 3 approximated, short, 4 long, moderately 
converging with 6 posteriorly, 5 absent, 6 and 7 stalked, 7 to costa, 8 
absent, 11 from the posterior fifth of the cell. Hind wing 1 / 2 , narrowly 
lanceolate, with a costal shoulder, cilia 4; 2 — 4 remote, parallel, 4 and 5 
connate, cell open between 5 and 6, 6 and 7 closely approximated towards 
base (seemingly connate). 
Genotype Dynatophysis perichrysa spec, nov., female. 
Fig. 614: Dynatophysis perichrysa gen. nov, spec, nov., female, head and wing 
neuration. 
Allied to Aeronectris Meyrick and Helcanthica Meyrick, perhaps 
nearest to the latter, differing from both by the connate veins 4 and 5 in 
the hind wings, furthermore from the first genus also by the normal 
anterior legs, and by the stalked veins 6 and 7 in the hind whig, from the 
second genus by the absence of raised scale-tufts in the fore wings. The 
characters of the median and the posterior legs must remain undescribed, 
but the genus is sufficiently characterised already by the peculiar neuration 
of both the fore, and the hind wings.
