Fiji, Yunidawa, April (E . Phillips ) ; 1 ex. (Brit. Mus.). Allied 
to the Australian triselena Meyr. 
Stathmopoda (?) porphyrantha Meyr. 
A J of this species from Formosa, Taihoku {Prof. S. Issiki ) (the 
species was described from a unique $ from Ceylon) has simple 
antennae, and therefore cannot be regarded as a true Stathmopoda, 
but as I cannot accurately determine the neuration on my scanty 
material, I refrain from separating it at present; the abdomen in 
c 3 has a white anal tuft, a notable feature.
