Abstract
Recently I had an opportunity of studying the specimens of Pychromnestra isoniphas Meyrick and Macrophanta aulosenia Meyrick by the courtesy of Drs. Klaus Sattler and P. E. S. Whalley, to whem I am much indebted for allowing me to examine them in the collection of the British Museum (Natural History). The two species are the type-species of the genera and occur in India. Close examination of the specimens of the two revealed that the genus Psychromnestra Meyrick is closely related to Ypsolophus Fabricius and its allies, and that the genus Macrophanta Mayrick falls as a synonym of Swammerdamia Hubner.
