LEPIDOPTEBA OF THE FAMILY ZTOA3NII)N.. 365<br />

PBOCOTES, n. gen. P1. XXVIII. fig. 1.<br />

TVinga narrow, cell <strong>of</strong> sec<strong>on</strong>daries wide, partially divided by a<br />

recurrent nervure ; <strong>on</strong>e radial ; discocellulars forming a c<strong>on</strong>tinuous<br />

c<strong>on</strong>cave angular line, and equal in length ; sec<strong>on</strong>d median<br />

branch trifurcate, <strong>the</strong> forks emitted from its lower margin at regular<br />

intervals, thus dividing it into three almost equal lengths.<br />

Type, P. diminuta, Walker.<br />

1. PROCOTES DIMINUTA, Walker = Euchromia (Endera) diminuta,<br />

Walker, L. H. p. 230.<br />

Syntomis diminuta, Walker, 1. c. p. 1592.<br />

NOTIOPTEBA, n. gen. P1. XXVIII. fig. 2.<br />

Wiiigs moderately broad, cell <strong>of</strong> sec<strong>on</strong>daries wide, part,ially divided<br />

by R recurrent nervure emitted from <strong>the</strong> middle <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

lower discocellular; <strong>on</strong>e true radial, <strong>the</strong> lower radial being placed<br />

at <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> median ncrvure, thus forming a fourth median<br />

branch ; upper discocellular short, oblique, l<strong>on</strong>er twice as l<strong>on</strong>g,<br />

angulated in <strong>the</strong> middle, <strong>the</strong> two toge<strong>the</strong>r forming a zigzag line.<br />

Type, N. dolosa, Walker.<br />

1. NOTIOPTERA Doi.osa=Syntomis doloes, Walker, Lep. Het. p. 1591.<br />

2. N.? GLAUCOPOIDES=S. glaucopoides, Walker, I+. Het. Suppl.<br />

p. 69.<br />

3. N. STRIGOSA=S. strigom, Walker, Lep. Het. Suppl. p. 69.<br />

4. N.? BXPANSA=S. expansa, Walker, Lep. Het. Suppl. p. 73,<br />

THTRASSIA, 11. gen. P1. XXVIII. fig. 6.<br />

Nearly allied to <strong>the</strong> preceding, but <strong>with</strong> not <strong>on</strong>ly <strong>the</strong> lower<br />

radial but also <strong>the</strong> third median branch emitted near toge<strong>the</strong>r<br />

from <strong>the</strong> lower discocellular ; <strong>the</strong> c<strong>on</strong>tinuous line <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> discocellulars<br />

also less zigzag. Type I! eubcordata, Walker.<br />

1. THYRASSIA SUBCORDATA=SptOmil3 subcordata, Walker, Lep. Het.<br />

p. 132.<br />

BALATIEA, Walker.<br />

1. BALATAIA<br />

boERIoIDEs, Walker, Lep. Het. suppl. i. p. 110 (1861).<br />

Nor<strong>the</strong>rn China. Type, B.M.<br />

I ra<strong>the</strong>r doubt <strong>the</strong> propriety <strong>of</strong> separating this genus from<br />

<strong>the</strong> next ; for though slightly different in colorati<strong>on</strong>, its large<br />
