212 ANTICOLLIX; COENOCALPE; HORISME. By L. B. Prout. 
this Formosan Collix, which will be described and figured in Vol. 12. No confirmatory Japanese material has 
come to hand. 
77a. Genus: Anticollix gen. nov. 
Meyrick is probably justified in separating the species sparsata from the rest with which it has been 
associated and in writing (Revised Handbook, p. 235) “monotypic”; but he is definitely wrong in employing 
the name Collix for it, inasmuch as Guenee explicitly says that he does not know how far sparsata, which he 
does not possess, participates in the diagnosis which he has given for Collix, and repeats his doubts under 
“ Collix? sparsata" . Apart from the presence, in the hindwing, of a long subcostal hair-pencil on the upper- 
side, lying beneath a slight hindmarginal lobe of the forewing, Anticollix differs from both Collix and “ Pseudo - 
collix " [Horisme part.) in the form of the discocellulars of the hindwing; the 2nd is in both sexes rather 
strongly oblique inward, angled to become oblique outward, as is also the 3rd. Palpus moderate, 
rough-scaled. Antenna of 3 scarcely ciliated. Abdomen slightly crested throughout. Areole double (the state¬ 
ment that it is single, first erroneously made by Lederer, then repeated, probably at secondhand, by Guenee 
and Rebel, may possibly arise from occasional variability, but I have found no exception to the general rule). 
Hindwing irregularly dentate, scalloped between the radials. Genotype: sparsata Tr. 
A. sparsata Tr. (= lysimachiata Tr.) (Vol. 4, pi. 130). V. Schultz records an unusual coloration of 
the larva, the green ground-colour strongly suffused with reddish, the dorsal stripes and white lateral line 
much more sharply prominent, as also a dark line bounding the latter above; segment-incisions reddened, some 
orange marking ventrally, the anterior proleg strongly reddish. Two specimens among a number of typical ones. 
78. Genus: Cocnocalpe Hbn. 
C. lapidata Hbn. (Vol. 4, pi. 13 1). According to Nitsche the form from the Pitztal is strikingly dark, 
perhaps a well-differentiated local race. — zerhounaria Oberth. (= zehrounaria Oberth.) (18 f). Livid light-brown, 
with sharp black cell-dots, the dark central shading of the postmedian accentuated. Beni-Amar, Zerhoun.

79. Genus: Horisinc Hbn. 
(See Vol. 4, p. 300; Vol. 16, p. 99.) 
I place here provisionally, as was indicated in Vol. 16, not only the typical clematis-feeding group by 
which it is best known in Europe, but also most of the others which show Eupitheciid structural characters, 
including most of the special features of the genitalia, but which lack the “body-plate” of the 8th sternite. 
This necessitates the inclusion of some which are as small as many Eupithecia ; one or two of them have actually 
been assumed to belong there, though the relatively larger hindwing gives to them (as also to Piercia, see above) 
a different aspect; see subrubescens. In this sense, too, I believe that even South America, which I excluded 
in Vol. 4 from its area of distribution, may claim to possess a few representatives; but I have not yet studied 
them exactly from that point of view. For dentata D. Luc., erroneously referred here by its author, see Cidaria 
lcalischata (p. 142). 
H. (?) agilata Christ. (18 f). As the figure in Vol. 4 (13 k) gives little idea of the hindwing shape and 
the colour, I substitute that of a $ from Narva, S. Ussuri, the only specimen which I have yet seen. Face and 
palpus blackish. Crests very small (I cannot find any definite thoracic one), anal end tufted. Hindwing shaped 
nearly as in Anticollix, with which Dietze inclined to associate it, but the pencil is wanting and the disco¬ 
cellulars are simpler. Systematic position doubtful until dissections can be made, but the comparison with 
Chloroclystis debiliata was quite misleading; by the shape, the development of the anal tuft, etc., it can hardly 
be a Eupithecia of the Eucymatoge section; I therefore refer it provisionally to Horisme. 
H. subrubescens Warr. (17 e). Abdominal crests apparently rather weak, but most of the available 
specimens are by no means perfect; the other characters entirely indicative of Horisme as defined above. Evid¬ 
ently related to the Australian cristata Walk., which has already been assigned by Turner to this genus. Cell-mark 
of forewing strong, rather obliquely placed. Fairly common in N. W. India. The type, from “Berham Gully" 
(? Campbellpur disk), is the form with the median area of the forewing darkened into a band. — ab. decipienda 
Butt., the commoner form, has the median area not or scarcely darkened. The type was from Dharmsala. 
H. eurytera sp.n. (17 e). Closely related to subrubescens, the typical series considerably larger (26 to 
28 mm), the apical part of the forewing a little mere rounded; much darker and greyer, strongly glossy, “dusky 
drab” or fuscous, the lightest specimen perhaps better described as “drab densely irrorated with black-grey”; 
forewing with cell-mark less thick, subterminal showing chiefly as 2 whitish dots (in front of the 1st median 
and behind the 2nd; hindwing as dark as forewing and not (as in subrubescens) showing a lightening costally;
