370 CHALENATA; PHYLLOPHILA; OZARBA. By Dr. M. Draudt. 
G. viliica Schs. (51 g). Forewing coppei’y brown with a purple grey gloss excepting the interior half 
of the median area and the marginal area, with dark, slightly dentate transverse lines and indistinct maculae 
surrounded with brown, an indistinct darker undulate line. Hindwing coppery brown. Brazil (Castro, Parana). 
40. Genus: Chaleiaata Wkr. 
Small insects of a slender structure, with a stunted proboscis, short palpi and a smooth frons, the 
tuftless body being smoothly scaled. Fore wing broad with a rounded apex and normal neuration with an 
areole, the first 5 species with pectinated antennae. 
Ch. mesonephele Hmps. (51 g). Forewing yellowish-white, strewn somewhat darker, blackish in the 
median area below and behind the cell, edged by faded black transverse lines; traces of a dark undulate line. 
Hindwing yellowish-white. Argentina. 
Cll. noxia Schs. (51 g) is similar, more reddish, the dark brown median area edged by rusty brown 
lines, with subterminal rusty brown internerval spots, shaded with brown at the margin; the ring-macula is 
a black dot. Hindwing brownish-grey. Costa Rica. 
Ch. ustata Dec. (51 g). Forewing whitish ochreous, brownish in the basal area, the median area broadly 
blackish-brown as far as the costal margin, posterior transverse line double, filled with ochreous, light brown 
dusting before the undulate line. Hindwing yellowish-white, dusted darker at the base. Colombia, Panama. 
Ch. ustatina Dyar (51 g) is very similar but smaller, hindwing of a clear straw-colour without the 
brown dusting, the marginal area of the forewing lighter with clearer, not faded transverse lines. Panama. 
Ch. quella Dyar (51 g) is quite dark greyish-brown, with hardly any marking, the very indistinct, 
somewhat lighter transverse lines bordered with a somewhat darker colour, the exterior one somewhat reddish, 
with a small black discal dot. Hindwing brownish-black with black marginal dots. Panama. 
Ch. fumosa Btlr. (51 g). Fore wing greyish ochreous, strewn with dark brown, darker in the distal 
half of the median area and at the margin: the dark transverse lines are faded, the exterior one bordered with 
whitish, the undulate line traceably lighter. Hindwing reddish-brown. Brazil. 
Ch. bilinea Schs. (51 g). Forewing purple grey, densely strewn with red-brown, with blackish-brown 
transverse lines, the exterior one faded, the brown undulate line indistinct. Hindwing reddish-brown. Brazil. 
Ch. lilacina Hmps. (51 h) is feebly strewn with purple brown on the light grey forewing, the blackish 
transverse lines are slightly undulated, as small blackish discal luna is at the cell-end; the feeble whitish undulate 
line is almost straight. Hindwing greyish-brown. Brazil, Argentina. 
Ch. micaceella Wkr. (51 h) is one of the smallest species, deep olive brown, with silvery blue scales 
instead of the usual markings, being condensed at the transverse lines into interrupted linear markings. Hind¬ 
wing of the same colouring and marking. Brazil. 
41. Genus: I'liyllopliila Guen. 
Distinguished from the preceding genera by a rounded frontal projection with a horny plate below it: 
the scaled thorax is tuftless, the abdomen with a small basal tuft. Chiefly palaearctic species (cf. Vol. Ill, p. 273). 
Ph. eogela Schs. (51 h). Forewing olive brownish-grey, red-brown at the costal margin, strewn with 
white, with double brown transverse lines filled with white, the maculae surrounded with whitish, the reniform 
macula filled with red-brown below, the subterminal area obliquely to the apex whitish, the undulate line feebly 
dusted with red-brown inside. Hindwing greyish-brown. Brazil. 
Ph. atrisigna Dogn. (51 h). Forewing yellowish ochreous, strewn with brown, with white transverse 
lines bordered with brown, the interior half of the median area and the cell white, the posterior half of the 
median area strewn with blackish-brown; a white subterminal line proceeding from the apex is in the darkened 
marginal area. Hindwing white, feebly strewn with brownish yellow. Argentina. 
42. Genus: Ozarba Wkr. 
Proboscis developed, palpi erect with a long terminal joint, frons smooth. Thorax smoothly scaled, 
tuftless, only the abdomen with a basal tuft. Forewing without an areole, the lowest subcostal branch proceeds 
from the upper cell-angle, the 3 next on a common stalk, the uppermost arises freely from the cell, the upper-
