84. Stenoma symmicta, sp. n. (Tab. VI. fig. 26.) 
Antennae biciliate 1; pale brownish grey. Palpi white, with a fuscous streak above to beyond the 
middle of the median joint. Head shining white. Thorax white, with a pale yellowish brown gloss. 
Forewings with the costa straight, slightly widened outward, apex angular, termen oblique, not sinuate ; 
white, much shaded and mottled with pale yellowish brown, forming a dorsal shade before the fold; 
a streak along the lower edge of the cell and three costal patches irregularly attenuate downward to 
the cell—the first, at one-fifth, tending obliquely outward; the second and third, at equal distances, 
tending obliquely inward, the latter terminating in a fuscous spot at the end of the cell, beyond which 
is an outwardly bowed line of very faint yellowish brown dots, followed by a diffused shade before the 
termen ; a brownish fuscous dot at the apex is followed by a white patch at the base of the pale aeneous 
cilia, and a line of the same colour follows the margin below it nearly to the tornus; on the underside 
the costa is narrowly stained with yellowish ochreous throughout, and two conspicuous fuscous dots he 
in a white patch at the extreme apex. Exp. al. 17 mm. Hindwings brownish grey, sinuate below the 
apex ; cilia pale aeneous, with a paler line running along their base. Abdomen yellowish brown. Hind 
Legs white, the tarsi brownish grey above.

85. Stenoma acrosticta, sp.n. (Tab. VI. fig. 27.) 
Antennae biciliate 1; tawny grey, the basal joint somewhat stout, brown. Palpi pale tawny grey, the 
median joint shaded with brown externally. Head rough above ; pale tawny grey, slightly shaded with ° 
brown; face paler. Thorax dark brownish fuscous, with tawny grey patches at the side posteriorly, 
a slightly raised brownish tuft behind ; tegulae light brownish. Forewings widened outwardly, costa 
moderately straight, apex abruptly depressed, termen oblique, sinuate, tornus rounded; tawny grey, 
with a vinous tinge along the middle, a widely diffused shade of light brown along the costa throughout ; 
a narrower, dark brownish fuscous, shade along the dorsum, commencing at about one-fifth from the 
base, and reaching nearly to the tornus, is diffused and diluted upward and outward on its outer half; 
a minute blackish dot, a little beyond the middle of the fold, is succeeded by another at the end of the 
cell, and in line with these, adjacent to the costa, a little before the apex, is a conspicuous black spot 
whence a narrow line of blackish scales descends to the tornus parallel with the termen, the terminal 
space beyond it forming a narrow band of silvery grey deprived of the vinous suffusion which precedes 
it; cilia light brownish. Eup. al. 28-28 mm. Hindwings broader than the forewings, the termen
