Ecuador, probably at high elevation; 1 ex. (Coll. Joannis). 
AXYEOSTOLA, n. g. 
Head with loosely appressed scales; ocelli posterior; tongue 
developed. Antennae in <$ simple, basal joint elongate, without 
pecten. Labial palpi very long, recurved, second joint beneath with 
tuft of very long rough projecting scales, whorled towards apex, 
terminal joint longer than second, slender, acute. Maxillary palpi 
very short, drooping. Posterior tibiae with rough projecting hairs 
above. Forewings 2 from near angle, 2-5 approximated, 6 and 8 
stalked, 7 absent, 11 from middle. Hindwmgs 1, elongate-trape¬ 
zoidal, termen hardly sinuate, cilia 1 ; 3 and 4 connate, 5 approxi¬ 
mated, 6 and 7 stalked. 
Perhaps allied to Dactylethra. 
Axyrostola acherusia, n. sp. 
<3 . 14 mm. Head white. Palpi white, basal f- of second joint 
fuscous, anterior edge of terminal joint dark fuscous. Thorax 
white, patagia dark fuscous. Eorewings rather narrow, apex 
obtuse, termen very obliquely rounded ; white sprinkled fuscous ; a 
broad irregular bronzy-fuscous median stripe from base to costa 
before apex, containing a less broad irregular suffused black stripe 
nearly interrupted in middle and posteriorly running along its 
upper edge and sending at from lower edge a blackish line nearly 
to termen beneath apex, this stripe appears to form a round spot at 
|, half black and half fuscous; a dark fuscous marginal line round 
apex and termen : cilia white with slender grey bars, on costal end 
of stripe blackish. Hindwings grey, lighter towards base; cilia 
whitish-grey.

dense projecting apical tuft of scales beneath, terminal joint much 
longer than second, stout, slightly roughened anteriorly, pointed. 
Maxillary palpi very short, filiform, appressed to tongue. Posterior 
tibiae rough-haired above. Eorewings with tufts of scales ; 1 b fur¬ 
cate, 2 from near angle, 3-5 approximated, 7 and 8 stalked or 
coincident, 7 to costa, 11 from middle. Hindwings 1, trapezoidal, 
termen slightly bisinuate, cilia 1 ; 3 and 4 connate, 5 approximated 
at base, 6 and 7 long-stalked.|
