This description is compiled from the figure and the description of Ploetz. The figure might readily 
pass tor a poor one of A. polysema, were it not that the i3osition of the spots of forewing are different, 
an there are four instead of three subapical dots. lYe are doubtful if this species is really Australian, 
so we have not included it in our list. 
Genus OREISPLANUS nov. 
Antennae slightly more than half the length of costa: clubs evenly bent at middle and with tips blunt 
.1 Mesodina and Anisynta (Fig. AJ 6). Palpi xvitli third joint short, blunt and 
porrect Hind tibiae with two pairs of spurs. Forewing with costa nearly straight and termen about 
^othirds the length of dorsum: vein 5 straight and about equidistant from vein 4 and from vein 6: 
^ein - arising much nearer to vein 4 than to base of wing: male without a discal sexmark.
