2. Platynota rubiginis, sp. 0. 
Antennae & biciliate 1; greyish fuscous. Palpi brownish ochreous, much suffused with fuscous above, the 
terminal joint rust-brown at the apex on the underside. Thorax brownish ochreous, mixed with fuscous 
and rust-brown, paler ochreous posteriorly. Forewings with a short lunate costal fold at the base ; 
narrowly stained along the costa and termen, and toward the base of the dorsum, with rich rust-brown 
dotted with dark fuscous and sprinkled with a few shining steely metallic scales, especially along the - 
base of the brownish ochreous terminal cilia; the dark fuscous dots on the costa, although more or less 
continuous, are grouped in two somewhat triangular patches, one before, and one beyond the middle, 
from each of which slender, obliquely curved, lines descend to the dorsum ; there is a small raised spot 
at the end of the cell and a patch of dark raised scales below the fold beyond the flexus. up. al. 15mm. 
Hindwings rather bright ochreous, with slightly paler cilia, through which runs a darker shade-line.

The 2 Type (66460) from the Volcan de Atitlan lacks the strong rust-coloured 
stain along the costa and the base of the dorsum, and shows a rather conspicuous dark 
quadrate patch beyond the middle of the dorsum. 
Allied to 5385 labiosana Z., from which it differs in the position of the costal 
marks and the lines which emanate from them, and, especially, in the rust-coloured 
margin to the costa and termen. 
3. Platynota subargentea, sp.n. (Tab. VII. fig. 9.) 
Antennae brown. Palpi brown, a few dark fuscous scales intermixed. Head brownish. Thorax shining, 
silvery grey. forewings shining, silvery grey, with transverse lines and spots of raised scales; the 
costa from near the base is shaded with brown, which extends around the apex to below the middle of 
the termen; some dark fuscous scaling accompanies this shade, especially in the costal patch before the 
middle, and in a smaller one beyond the middle, as well as around the apex ; there is also a rusty brown 
shade beyond the middle of the dorsnm containing two or three raised patches of silvery grey and sub- 
ochreous scales; below the middle of the fold is a small spot of raised dark fuscous scales; cilia rusty 
brown along their base, whitish ochreous beyond. Eap.al.19 mm. Hindwings chestnut-brown: cilia
