== Description == Stathmopoda have smooth heads with a metallic luster, and the occiput may be smooth or slightly coarse. The labial palps (part of the mouthparts) are curved, sharp-tipped and the second and third segments are similar in length. There is a pair of antennae which are shorter than the forewing, have elongate and clubbed scapes, and (in males) the flagella have long ciliae on the anterior margins.
