1310 OJA; ZJKANYROPS. By Dr. Herbert Sick. 
P. halophora Dyar resembles argentea. Forewing white; with a slight rusty tint and dark suffusions. 
Costa somewhat more rusty. Distal margin with black dots on veins 3—8, those on 3 and 8 being larger; a 
black dot in the centre of vein 1. A narrower darker line at the upper cell-angle with a slight reddish shadow. 
A line from the upper cell-angle is strongly bent outward, reaching the tornus. Interior part of the discal line 
continued across the cell to the median vein; the area thus enclosed shows a silvery glimmer on the undulate 
surface and extends almost to the base below the median vein and above vein 1. Hindwing white with small 
black dots at the end of veins 2 and 3. Expanse: 24 mm. Pueblo Pasdo, Col. de Perene, Peru. 
P. necoda Drc. £ head, antennae, collar and tegulae, thorax, abdomen and legs yellowish white. Fore¬ 
wing light fawn-coloured, darkest at the apex and distal margin; a reddish fawn-coloured spot at the cell-end. 
from which 2 faint brown lines extend almost to the anal angle; a tiny black dot in the centre of the inner 
margin. Hindwing light fawn-coloured, lightest at the base, fringes whitish. — $ very similar, but larger and 
almost entirely white. Expanse : % ? 3 /io inch Colombia, Don Amo (Druce). 
P. canalicula Dogn. (168 b). Wings white, forewing with a yellowish glimmer. Forewing scantily,strewn 
with ochre; a median brown dot on vein 1; 2 ochreous lines almost parallel, uniting in front at the exterior 
third of the costal margin; interior lines more straight, cutting the cell, extending across the origin of vein 3 
to the posterior margin a little before the anal angle. Exterior line outwardly rounded, ending between 6 and 4 
and at the anal angle; a few brown dots at the ends of the veins. Wings beneath, fringes, legs, and body white. 
Closely allied with innocens. La Oroya, Rio Inambari, Carabaya, South-Eastern Peru. Expanse: 2.0 mm. 
P. cyclophera Dyar. Creamy white; forewing feebly shaded with brown. Lines connected with each 
other and remote from the anterior and posterior margins, forming an elliptical ring which is more pointed 
below than above, thin, brown; some groups of scales are in its upper part; a dot on vein 1 near the centre, 
and a marginal row of dots on the veins. Hindwing without spots. Expanse of wings: 20 mm. Type from 
Cabima, May 1911 (Busck). 
P. oxydata Hopp. $ forewing white, suffused with rusty red; a rust-coloured zone at the costal margin 
outside the cell, defined in a straight line towards the apex, vanishing, however, towards the base and forming 
a very indistinct band towards the anal angle. A faint dot at the fork of veins 7 and 9, a few' faint -dots also 
at the margin. Beneath white, feebly rusty at the costal margin. Hindwing, body and appendages white. Ex¬ 
panse: 15 mm. Teffe (Amazons). 
P. pulverina Schs. Antennae, head, thorax and legs yellowish white. Abdomen white, forewing whitish 
yellow, scantily suffused with fine dark brown scales; the suffusions form an oval spot on the distal part of the 
wing, the anterior part bent above the discocellular line, the posterior part narrower and not quite meeting the 
interior margin; a small brown antemedian spot on the submedian line. Hindwing white, wings white beneath. 
Costal margin of forewing whitish ochreous, suffused with brown. Expanse: 15 mm. Cayuga, Guatemala. 
13. Genus: Ca Dyar. 
Veins 8 and 10 of forewing absent; 9 and 10 on a long stalk or anastomosing. Veins 3 to 4 of the 
hindwing on a short stalk, 5 to 7 separated, 8 broadly united with the cell. Genotype: Ca anastigma Dyar. 
Ca anastigma Dyar. Forewing light yellow; an undulate dingy olive shadow extends across the interior 
third of the wing. The similar submarginal shadow irregular, badly defined, partly touching the margin. Discal 
dot small, round, black, situate upward towards the costa; 2 tiny black dots at the apex. Hindwing whitish 
with a faint yellowish tint. Expanse of wings: 11 mm. Type from the Trinidad River, March 1912 (Busck). 
14. Genus: Zikaiiyrops Hopp. 
Forewing with an accessory cell as in Dalcerides. Veins 8, 9 and 10 anastomosing. 2 from the centre 
of the cell-vein, 3 a little before the cell-angle, 4 from the latter, 5 a little before the media, 6 right behind it, 
7 from the accessory cell, 9 likewise; 11 from the anterior edge of the accessory cell, 12 free. Hindwing: vein 2 
from the last third of the cell, 3 and 4 from the cell-angle, almost somewhat stalked, 5 a little before 6 behind 
the media, 7 from the anterior cell-angle, 8 close beside it from the cell. Cell of forewing rather broad, divided 
by the media into two almost equal halves. Accessory cell small. Frons scarcely as broad as the eyes; palpi 
narrow, slightly upturned. The frenulum is without the retinaculum (see Epipyropidae). 
Z.sparsa Hopp. $ 15 mm. Creamy white. Forewing strewn with dark brown scales, especially between 
the apex and cell. Cell-crossvein and veins 5 and 6 basally with whitish hair. Costa beneath in the basal half 
dark brown. Palpi brownish. Brazil, Minas Geraes, Passa Quatro, November 26th 1917 (Zikan), 1 cC 
Z. dubiosa Hopp. Accessory cell somewhat narrower and longer than in sparsa and not projecting half 
outward, but only representing a section of the anterior half of the cell. $ 22 mm. Head, legs, hindwing and
