DICHOMERIS. 93 
5. Dichomeris substratella, sp. n. 
Antennae pale ochreous, barred above with blackish; basal joint ochreous. Palpi with pale ochreous triangular 
tuft; the slender terminal joint fuscous. Head brownish ochreous; face pale ochreous. TJhoraw greyish 
fuscous along the middle, the front and tegulae ochreous, with some steely iridescence. Forewings 
ochreous, with a reddish brown suffusion along the dorsum extending to the end of the fold, with some 
sprinkling of the same beyond as well as along the costa, the basal half of which shows a shining steel 
bluish streak, fading outward; in the fold are two elongate blackish spots, and between them, but nearer 
to the outer one, a patch of blackish scales rests on its upper edge and is followed by a small black spot 
at the end of the cell; there is also a geminate black spot on the termen; cilia brownish ochreous ; 
thus the general appearance of the wing is reddish, or brownish ochreous, the paler ground-colour 
exhibited only in a subcostal streak from the base which becomes diffused and almost lost outwardly 
toward the apex. Exp. al. 15-16 mm. WHindwings and cilia brownish grey, somewhat transparent, but 
not noticeably iridescent towards the base. Abdomen griseous above, ochreous beneath ; anal tuft 
ochreous. Legs pale ochreous.

This species differs from stratella Wl|sm. in its paler colouring, in the absence of the 
clear definition of the darker dorsal half of the wing, in its pale cilia, and, noticeably, 
in the steel-blue streak along the base of the costa; the hindwings and legs are also 
paler. 
6. Dichomeris percnopholis, sp. n. (Tab. III. fig. 11.) 
Antennae olivaceous ochreous. Palpi with the broadly triangular tuft on median joint dark chocolate-brown, 
except at the stone-grey fringe along its upper edge; terminal joint slender, whitish ochreous, its apex 
slightly shaded with umber-brown. Head and Yhorax stone-grey, the latter with a slight ochreous 
tinge. Forewings stone-grey, with a slight olivaceous tinge, especially towards the termen; the base is 
tinged with ochreous and the costa narrowly ochreous throughout, including the costal cilia with which 
the terminal and apical cilia correspond, a faint paler line running through their middle; on the dorsum 
before the tornus is a quadrate dark chocolate-brown patch crossing the outer extremity of the fold, and 
a marginal series of 7 or 8 small spots of the same colour extends along the termen and around the apex ; 
there is some indication of two plical and three discal dots, the first discal slightly preceding the second 
plical, the third discal scarcely preceding the second discal which is at the upper angle of the cell above 
it. Exp. al. 22 mm. Hindwings broader than the forewings ; tawny brownish grey; cilia somewhat 
paler, with a slender subochreous line along their base. -Abdomen and Legs dark brownish grey ; tibiae 
pale cinereous above and on their inner sides.
