Description

Melaloncha Brues, 1904, subgenus Udamochiras Enderlein, 1912

Type species: Udamochiras colossia Enderlein, 1912, by original designation.

Remarks. A synonymy, key, and all species descriptions are in Brown (2004a). Note that there is an important error in the key: the second lead of couplet 7 should lead to couplet 38, not couplet 40.
