of the fold, curved upward around the end of the cell, and attenuate backward to the costa, at two- 
thirds from the base, a costal shade, commencing at the base, extending to one-third and thence 
deflected obliquely outward to the fold, and an apical shade extending from the costa along the termen 
nearly to the tornus, and covering the cilia, the curved white transverse band which separates it from 
the antecedent grey shade being clearly defined. up. al. 14 mm. Hindwings and cilia pale greyish. 
Abdomen greyish. Legs yellowish white.

7. Stenoma prosora, sp. n. (Tab. V. fig. 29.) | 
Antennae pale brownish fuscous. Palpt bone-white, slightly smeared with brownish fuscous. Head pale 
brownish fuscous; face bone-white. Zhorax dark brownish fuscous. VYorewings bone-whitish, much 
suffused and transversely barred obliquely with broken brownish fuscous lines; the brownish fuscous 
suffusion is much more strongly shown on the dorsal than on the costal portion of the wing, but there is 
no clear definition of its extent, where the first two of the three transverse broken lines cross this 
dark shade they greatly intensify it, adding to it a slight purplish gloss; the first of these, commencing 
on the costa near the base, is partially reduplicated on its outer half, a branch to the extreme base being 
obscurely indicated, it is angulated inward on the cell, and descends to the dorsum, before the middle, in 
a generally oblique direction ; the second commences before the middle of the costa, and after reaching 
the upper angle of the cell descends straight to the dorsum, somewhat dilated outward on its lower halt; 
the third, from beyond the middle of the costa, curves outward parallel to the line of the apex and 
termen, reverting to the dorsum before the tornus, a similar line following the margin itself; the costa is 
very narrowly pale bone throughout, this line being produced through the basal half of the cilia, their 
outer half being pale bone-white. wp. ul. 23 mm. Hindwings brownish grey; cilia slightly paler. 
Abdomen pale brownish grey above, whitish at the sides. Legs bone-white.

8. Stenoma comosa, sp. n. (Tab. V. fig. 30.) 
Antennae diciliate 14; fawn-grey. Palpi white, a brown streak on the upper side of the median joint 
extending along its basal half. Head fawn-grey above; face white. Z’horax fawn-grey, with a lateral 
tuft of fawn-ochreous hair-scales beneath. Forewings with the costa arched towards the base, straight 
beyond, apex obtuse, termen obliquely convex; shining, white, a narrow, delicate, shade of fawn-ochreous 
along the costa, a stronger shade of fawn-grey along the dorsum, occupying the space below the fold, and 
slightly overlapping the fold at its outer half; in this broad fawn-grey shade are two conspicuous brown 
dorsal blotches—the first quadrate, scarcely before the middle, some scattered scales of the same colour 
extending obliquely inward on to the cell; the second, somewhat triangular, extending to the tornus, 
sending out a slender, fluctuate line of the same colour obliquely inward across the cell, ending below 
the middle of the costa; a further irregular line of brown spots curves upward from the tornus and 
reverts to the costa at the commencement of the costal cilia, six brown marginal spots extend along the 
termen, a small elongate spot occurring near the base of the wing a little below the fold ; cilia shining 
white, becoming fawn-grey at the tornus. up. al. 22 mm. Hindwings broader than the forewings, the 
costa slightly raised before the middle, the termen scarcely sinuate ; pale brownish grey, the outer half of 
the cilia whitish cinereous. Abdomen fawn-grey above, whitish beneath. Legs shining, white beneath, 
bone-white above; the posterior femora with a thick tuft of brownish ochreous hair-scales above.
