Gemorodes diclera, n. sp. 
3 . 26 mm. Head, palpi, thorax dark grey sprinkled whitish. 
Forewings elongate, costa slightly arched, apex tolerably pointed, 
termen very obliquely rounded ; grey, irregularly irrorated whitish 
scales tipped dark fuscous ; an obscure undefined subbasal fascia 
of darker irroration ; disoal stigmata forming spots of dark fuscous 
irroration, space between them more whitish-suffused: cilia light 
grey mixed whitish. Hindwings grey ; cilia light greyish, base 
pale. 
Natal, Stellenbosch, March (Bi'ciin) ; 1 ex. ( Coll . Jcinse ). 
GLYC YNYMPHA, n. g. 
Head with dense loosely appressed scales, sidetufts raised and 
connivent; ocelli small, inferior;- tongue short. Antennae f, 
in 3 strongly ciliated, basal joint moderate, without pecten. 
Labial palpi long, recurved, second joint with appressed scales, 
slightly rough at apex beneath, terminal joint as long as second, 
somewhat thickened with scales, pointed. Maxillary palpi obsolete. 
Anterior tibiae and tarsi short; posterior tibiae clothed with rough 
hairs above. Forewings 1 b furcate, 2 from towards angle, curved, 
3 and 4 stalked from angle, 7 and 8 stalked, 7 to apex, 11 from 
middle. Hindwings 1, trapezoidal-ovate, cilia \ ; 4 absent, 5 rather 
approximated to 3 at base, 6 and 7 connate. 
Type roseocostella Wals. Having obtained a 3 for examination, 
I have no doubt that my sandycopa is the other sex of this species. 
CYAN00RATES, n. g. 
Head smooth ; ocelli posterior; tongue developed. Antennae 4, 
in 3 simple, basal joint very elongate, slender, without pecten. 
Labial palpi extremely long, recurved, very slender, smooth, second 
joint with scales roughened towards apex beneath, terminal joint 
as long as second, acute. Maxillary palpi very short, filiform, 
appressed to tongue. Anterior tibiae and tarsi very short, stout; 
posterior tibiae smooth-scaled. Forewings apex short-falcate, 1 h 
long-furcate, 2 from f—|, 3-5 neatly approximated from angle, 
7 and 8 stalked, 7 to costa, 11 from middle. Hindwings over 1, 
trapezoidal-ovate, cilia ^; 3 and 4 connate, 5 nearer 4, nearly 
parallel, 6 and 7 stalked or nearly approximated towards base. 
Type grandis Druce. A development of Odites. Druce referred 
his species to a supposed genus OmmatotJieLvis Wals., which has no 
existence. Probably Lord Walsingham merely suggested the name 
to him. I do not adopt it, as I cannot encourage carelessness of 
this sort; this species, described 12 years ago without hint of any 
structural characters or affinities whatever, has been incapable 
even of family reference hitherto (being of abnormal facies) ; I have 
now fortunately acquired half-a-dozen specimens, including Druce’s 
own.
