TINEID^E. 
DINOCHORA, n. g. 
Head densely rough-haired ; ocelli posterior; tongue absent. 
Antennae |, joints closely set, in <y simple, basal joint moderate, 
rather thickened, with pecten. Labial palpi moderate, porrected, 
smooth-scaled, second joint with some projecting bristles towards 
apex, terminal joint about as long as second, tolerably pointed. 
Maxillary palpi moderate, several-jointed, folded, filiform. Fore¬ 
wings 2 from towards angle, 3 from angle, 4 absent, 7 to costa or 
absent, 11 from towards base. Hindwings f, elongate-ovate, 
cilia 1 ; 2 and 3 short, 4 absent, cell open between 3 and 5, 5-7 
approximated towards base.

Dinochora polyantha, m sp. 
(5. 7 mm. Head, palpi whitish-ochreous, crown tinged‘orange. 
Forewings ovate-lanceolate ; 7 absent; coppery-purple; basal area 
and basal fourth of costa suffused black irroration ; a moderately 
broad rather inwards-oblique yellow fasciate blotch before middle, 
nearly reaching dorsum but not nearly costa, edged black suffusion, 
from upper end of this a thick streak of black suffusion along 
costa to apex interrupted by a snow-white spot at f; a small 
yellow spot in disc at f surrounded by blackish irroration, and a 
somewhat larger spot on tornus beneath it; minute white dots on 
costa and termen towards apex : cilia grey, basal third mixed 
blackish. (Hindwings missing.) 
S. India, Falnis, 6000 feet, May (Fletcher') ; 1 ex. This-distinct 
insect, possessed a long time, and hitherto not intelligible, is now 
seen to be obviously allied to clytozona , and the deficient structures 
can be assumed similar.
