1. Apopira falcatella Wkr. (Tab. II. fig. 14.) 
Gelechia falcatella Wkr. Cat. Lp. BM. 29 625 sp. 295 (1864) °. 
Antennae greenish fuscous, delicately annulate with white. Palpi dark greenish fuscous, distinetly and 
closely annulate with white throughout. Head and Thorax bluish green; face shining, cinereous. 
Forewings bluish green, the costa smeared with dark brown from near the base to the apex; a slender, 
oblique, whitish line runs outward from the commencement of the costal cilia to a point opposite the 
apex, whence it is angulate and diffused downward, losing itself in the paler greenish ground-colour ; 
the extreme apex is tinged with ferruginous, a reduplicated pale line marking the base of the dark brown 
cilia, in which, at the extreme apex, are three streaklets running downward through the projecting 
point, which gives them a strong uncate appearance ; the termen is preceded by three or four short 
longitudinal dark streaklets, and there is a dark spot in the cilia below the apex. Eup. al. 10-12 mm. 
Hindwings brown, shading to dark brown outwardly ; bluish white on the basal’ two-thirds beneath. 
Abdomen brown above, silvery white beneath. Legs dark brownish grey ; tibiae laterally streaked with 
silvery white, tarsi faintly annulate with white.

1. Untomia alticolens, sp. n. 
Antennae whitish, annulate with fawn-brown beyond the base. Palpi recurved, slender, median joint 
thickened above, and tufted at its apex; dark brown at the base, the tuft and terminal joint white. 
Head pale fawn-grey ; face whitish. Thorax pale fawn-grey. Forewings pale fawn, shaded and blotched 
with dark chocolate-brown, the costa to one-third white, with a dark brown spot at the extreme base; 
before the middle of the costa commences an elongate dark chocolate-brown patch which extends to the 
commencement of the costal cilia, before which it is interrupted by a short outwardly oblique white 
costal streak ; the fawn-brown colour, spreading at the base over two-thirds of the wing-width, contains 
two dark suffused spots on the fold, the second followed by some whitish scales; there is a small dark 
spot on the cell before the middle, and a second somewhat obliquely placed at the end of the cell, the 
latter followed by a whitish space, the whole dorsal half of the wing being slightly sprinkled with dark 
scales ; before the apex a dark chocolate-brown spot precedes a margined line of the same colour along . 
the base of the cilia which are whitish in the middle, tipped with chocolate-brown. vp. al, 12-14mm. 
Hindwings pale grey, marked at the apex somewhat as in the forewings ; cilia faintly shaded with 
fawn-grey. Abdomen brownish grey; anal tuft slightly paler. Legs greyish, the hind tarsi whitish at 
the joints.
