1. Ancylis nomica, sp. n. 
Antennae pale fawn-grey. Palpi white on their inner sides, fawn-grey externally, the terminal joint tipped 
with fuscous. Head fawn-ochreous. Thorax fawn-grey. Forewings fawn-grey, blending with fawn- 
brown beyond the middle and beneath the fold; along the costa is a series of about six, oblique, shining 
white, geminated streaklets, with a small cuneiform white streak before the apex, followed by a fuscous 
spot at its lower extremity, near the deep incision of the termen—the space from this spot to the apex 
is chestnut-brown, margined by white cilia above and beneath; above the tornus the fawn-grey space 
contains some wavy shining lines, which clearly define the oblique outer edge of the fawn-brown shade 
above it; cilia, below the incision, pale fawn-grey, with a shining line along their base. wp. al. 11- 
15mm. Hindwings pale greyish fuscous ; cilia shining, pale grey, a slight shade running through them 
near their base. Abdomen shining, greyish. Legs nearly white, with faint greyish tarsal bands.
