76 HETEROCERA. 
extending around the termen at the base of the whitish ochreous cilia, which are nearly black on their 
outer half above the middle; on the extreme base of the costa is a short black streak. Exp. al. 8°5 mm. 
Hindwings rather narrow at the base, trapezoidal, apex produced, termen scarcely emarginate; dull 
grey, suffused with brownish fuscous ; cilia pale brownish grey. Abdomen olivaceous grey. Legs grey, 
with narrow whitish tarsal bands. 
Type 3 (65843) Mus. Wlsm. (Godm-Salv. Coll.) BM. [PTT. (65848-50) US. Nat. Mus. ] 
Hab. Mexico: tasasco: Teapa, III. (H. H. Smith). Nine specimens. 
5. Untomia symphora, sp. n. (Tab. II. fig. 32.) 
Antennae whitish, delicately annulated with fuscous, Palpi white, the median joint somewhat spreading at 
its apex, black on its outer side, a narrow rim of white at its extremity, terminal joint shorter than the 
median. Head whitish, tinged with grey above. Thorax tinged with grey, tegulae whitish. Forewings 
whitish on the costal half towards the base, becoming greyish towards the dorsum and brownish ochreous 
about and beyond the end of the cell; at the extreme base of the costa is a slender black streak, followed 
by a very short oblique black streak at one-fourth and a broader oblique black streak at the middle; this 
is separated by a narrow oblique white streak from an elongate blackish costal blotch, which is somewhat 
triangular and terminates in a curved reduplicated blackish line in the apical cilia; this blotch contains 
an outwardly oblique slender line, pointing to a small black spot in a white patch before the apex, 
another slender white line meeting it at an angle from the dorsum ; a small pale space on the fold at 
about half the wing-length contains a few blackish scales; terminal cilia hoary, speckled with greyish 
fuscous. Exp.al.7 mm. Hindwings greyish brown; cilia with a curved shade-line near their outer 
ends at the apex. Abdomen shining, greyish brown. Legs greyish; hind tarsi annulate with white and 
fuscous. 
Type 3 (65821) Mus. Wlsm. (Godm-Salv. Coll.) BM. 
Hab. Mexico: tapasco: Teapa, III. (A. H. Smith). Unique. 
This species differs from rotundata Wlsm. in FW: 7-8 being furcate close to the costa, 
not coincident throughout. 
6. Untomia horista, sp. n. 
Antennae cream-colour, distinctly annulate with brown. Palpi with the broadly scimitar-shaped median 
joint dark brown externally, its inner side and apical margin white; terminal joint slender, white. 
Head and Thorax cream-colour, the outer half of the tegulae dark brown. orewings dark umber- 
brown, with the exception of the dorsal third which is cream-colour, with a slight brownish ochreous 
tinge beyond the middle ; at, and a little before the termen, the pale portion becomes wider than the dark 
portion, which is angulated upward from above the tornus; from the commencement of the costal cilia 
runs a slender outwardly oblique whitish line through the dark brown, to the upper extremity of aslender 
tridentate dark brown line which reverts to the tornus a little before the termen; a dark brown line 
runs through the base of the pale cream-coloured cilia around the apex and termen, narrowly margined 
with cream-colour on its inner side, giving the apex an extremely rounded appearance. Hep. al. 8 mm. 
Hindwings as broad as the forewings, the termen obliquely sinuate, apex obtuse; together with the cilia 
pale brownish grey. Abdomen brownish grey. Legs creamy; hind tarsi with five dark shade-bands.

Hab. Muxico: tabasco: Teapa, III. (H. H. Smith). Four specimens. 
7. Untomia cryptina, sp. n. 
Antennae tawny fuscous, with faint paler annulations. Palpi pale, shining steel-grey, the median joint 
slightly thickened, and scarcely roughened above toward its apex. Forewings dark tawny brownish
