joint as long as the median, with a slender pale cinereous line along the underside, the extreme apex 
also pale cinereous. Head greyish brown. Thorax greyish brown along its anterior margin, whitish 
cinereous above; the latter half of the tegulae also whitish cinereous. Forewings elongate, with parallel 
margins and oblique termen; whitish cinereous, or pale stone-colour, with ascarcely perceptible ochreous 
tinge and some scattered transverse greyish brown speckling; @ greyish brown spot at the base of the 
costa is succeeded by three costal dots before the middle; an elongate costal streak about the middle, and 
a smaller spot on the middle of the fold, with a discal spot above it, form with the medio-costal streak 
an inwardly oblique series ; a small greyish fuscous spot occurs also at the end of the cell; the apex and 
termen are covered by a rather broad greyish brown patch, of which the inner margin is clearly defined 
and convex; cilia at the termen and apex much shaded with grey, but pale stone-ochreous on the 
dorsum. Exp.al.18 mm. Hindwings broader than the forewings, scarcely sinuate below the apex: 
brassy brownish along the veins and costa, inclining to semitransparent bluish grey between the veins ; 
cilia brownish cinereous, somewhat darker along their base. Abdomen pale brownish. Legs pale 
cinereous, shaded with brownish grey externally on the hairy tibiae and around the tarsal joints.

12. Gelechia cuneifera, sp. n. . 
Antennae tawny grey; slightly serrate. Palpi with the median joint stiffly brush-like beneath, the terminal 
- joint shorter than the median, smooth ; tawny greyish. Head and Thorax tawny grey. Forewings 
with the costa slightly arched towards the base, apex depressed, termen very oblique; pale tawny grey, 
obscured at the apex and along the costa by darker shades of the same; the costal blotch extends from 
one-fifth to nearly three-fourths of the wing-length, its lower and inner edge shading to brownish 
‘fascous, which forms first a broad wedge-shaped projection at about one-third, the apex crossing the 
fold, secondly, a brownish fuscous longitudinal streak reaching to the end of the cell above the middle of 
“the wing; between this costal blotch and the broad terminal shade the paler ground-colour reaches to 
‘the costa, suggesting a pale transverse band ; a few brownish fuscous scales are distributed in patches 
around the apex; cilia pale cinereous, somewhat sprinkled with brownish fuscous. Zap. al. 16 mm. 
Hindwings broader than the forewings, slightly sinuate below the acute apex; very pale grey; cilia
