CACOCHLORIS—DYSDAMARTIA. By L. B. Prout. 
121 
86. Genus: Cacochloris Prout 
Build rather robust. Palpus strong. Tongue weak. Antenna rather short, in both sexes pectinate. 
Hindtibia with all spurs. Frenulum — as in all succeeding genera of the subfamily — wanting. Forewing with 
the 1st and 2nd sidDcostals coincident (type) or stalked (the African ochrea, Vol. 16, p. 39). Only the two species 
known. 
C. uvidula Swinh. (14 a). Unmistakable on account of its generic characters, its colouring, firm lines uvidula. 
and large dark cell-marks. Described from Poona, but distributed in suitable localities from Ajmere to Ceylon. 
87. Genus: Aglossocliloris Prout 
This beautiful genus seems to be exclusively Palaearctic (see Vol. 4, p. 28), but we notice here the 
one species which reaches India. Palpus as in Cacochloris or longer. Tongue wanting. Antenna in the $ not 
or scarcely pectinate. Tibial spurs short, the proximal pair commonly wanting, perhaps always so in the §. 
All veins present. 
A. radiata Walk. (Suppl.-Vol. 4, pi. 6 a). Very similar to crucigerata (Vol. 4, pi. 2 g) but with the ante- radiata. 
median line very acutely angled outward on the median vein. N. W. India and W. China. 
88. Genus: Iulops Prout 
Like the preceding genus, this is clearly an offshoot of the Palaearctic Euchloris (Vol. 4, p. 27), from 
which it differs in the hairy face and the 2-spurrecl hindtibia. Antennal pectinations of J long. Apart from 
the face, the presence of the tongue separates it from Aglossochloris. 
I. argocrana Meyr. (= amalopa Turn.) (14 b). A simply-marked species, with somewhat the aspect argocrana. 
of a robust yellow-green Euloxia. The larva, according to T. P. Lucas, adorns itself with fragments of the 
food-plant, flowers of aster. Tasmania to Brisbane, the type from Victoria. 
89. Genus: Thai era Hbn. 
Palpus minute. Antenna pectinate (in the $ shortly or minutely). Hindtibia with terminal spurs only. 
Hindwing (in the Indo-Japanese group forewing also) excavated between the radials. Another Palaearctic 
genus which has entered India (see Vol. 4, p. 30). 
Th. aeruginata Warr. (14 b). Similar to lacerataria (Vol. 4, p. 30), wings a little narrower, the excision aeruginata. 
of the forewing a trifle deeper, the cell-spots above much weaker, the lines accompanied by white vein-spots, 
the postmedian less strongly sinuous, the hindwing beneath much paler inside the postmedian line than beyond 
it. Naga Hills. 
Th. suavis Swinh. (14 b). Still nearer to lacerataria, except in shape, the cell-spots and terminal line suavis. 
even stronger than in that, the antennal pectinations a trifle shorter. Yunnan. A larger form (?), from Sze¬ 
chuan, has not yet been thoroughly investigated, but makes more approach to the shape of lacerataria. 
90. Genus: Cliloroparda Prout 
Similar to Thalera but more extreme in shape and with very different venation, the 2nd subcostal 
of the forewing being stalked to much beyond the 5th, as in the Rhomborista group. Only one species known. 
Ch. palliplagiata Walk. (14 b). Apart from shape and venation, this is abundantly distinguishable from palli- 
Th. aeruginata and lacerataria by the white tornal spot of the forewing, surrounded by some dark irroration, plagiata 
and by the dark-suffused underside. Lower Burma; also known from Tonkin. 
91. Genus : Dysdamartia Prout 
Forewing not dissimilar in shape to that of Chloroparda, hindwing smooth-margined. Palpus still more 
minute. Pectinations, even in the $, very long. Hindtibia 2-spurred. Forewing with 2nd subcostal long-stalked, 
but separating before the 5th. Hindwing discolorous. Sexual dimorphism strong. Only the type species known. 
D. quaesita Prout (41, <$). Rather variable; some have the pale-centred spot at hind angle of cell quaesita. 
larger than in the example figured; underside in this sex suffused with the same red-brown as the borders of 
the hindwing above. $ a little larger, with the underside dark grey except costa of forewing; hindwing above 
grey or dull purplish, the forewing with a narrow border of the same and an extremely large patch of the same 
from tornus to 1st radial, somewhat recalling that of Rhomborista semipurpurea. Mount Goliath, Central Dutch 
New Guinea.
