STENOMA. 163 
12. Stenoma hemiscia, sp. n. 
Antennae ¢ diciliate 1; smoky greyish fuscous. Palpi white, partly suffused with greyish fuscous on the 
outer side of the median joint. Head and Thorax smoky greyish fuscous; face white. orewings 
rather shining, white, with a smoky greyish fuscous suffusion along the dorsal half, dilated upward to 
the apex and mottled throughout with a darker shade of the same colour; this darker mottling is 
reproduced on the whiter costal half in a costal spot at one-third, almost connected obliquely by a paler 
shade to the upper edge of the cell, in a paler, outwardly oblique, shade from the middle of the costa to 
the upper angle of the cell, and in another costal spot a little beyond it, on the outer side of which some 
white scaling is continued in an outwardly curved line through the fuscous suffusion to the tornus; there 
is no clear definition of the suffused portion of the wing, the white ground-colour blending with it and 
to some extent contributing to its mottled appearance; cilia white, with smoky fuscous marginal spots 
along their base; about the flexus are some strong projecting scales which, a little way along the dorsum, 
are tinged with rust-brown. Exp. al. 26 mm. Hindwings and base of cilia pale brownish fuscous, 
outer two-thirds of cilia, except near the abdomen, white.
