(FW: 7 to costa, 3-4 stalked), by its darker hindwings, and by the cilia of the 
forewings not being whitish. 
12. Polyortha suffalcata, sp. n. (Tab. VIII. fig. 15.) 
Antennae ochreous. Pulpt ochreous, sprinkled with reddish fawn; the rather long terminal joint smoother 
than in the larger species of the genus. Head and Thorax ochreous, the latter spotted with reddish 
fawn. Forewings with the costa convex, slightly flattened about the middle, the termen distinctly 
sinuate below the apex; ochreous, smeared and mottled with reddish fawn; with an irregular sub- 
oblique band of pale leaden grey, crossing the cell a little before the middle, a small patch of leaden 
grey scaling alsc, beyond the upper angle of the cell in the direction of the apex ; a broken line of black 
scale-dots follows the fold from the base, as far as a raised patch of ochreous scales above the dorsum at 
two-thirds ; some more black scaling lies below the costa, near the base, and along the inner edge of a 
roughly triangular pale apical patch tapering to the middle of the termen ; cilia reddish fawn, mixed 
with ochreous and some fuscous scales. vp. al. 16 mm. Hindwings and Abdomen reddish brown. 
Legs pale ochreous.

1. Tortricodes placita, sp.n. (Tab. VIII. fig. 16.) 
Antennae brownish grey. Palpi short, porrect, reaching a little beyond the head, the median joint slightly 
roughened above towards its apex; terminal joint shorter than the median, smooth, obtuse ; brownish 
externally. Head and Thorax griseous; the head slightly roughened posteriorly. orewings, with the 
costa strongly arched, apex somewhat obtuse, termen oblique, tornus rounded; hoary grey, with three 
brown patches, each margined, or speckled, with slightly raised dark umber-brown scale-spots—the 
first small, at the extreme base of the costu; the second large, obliquely quadrate, on the costa at about 
one-fifth from the base; the third, on the fold at the commencement of its outer third, from this a line 
of dark brown dots curves back to the costa, a few brown scales lying on the dorsum below it; the costa 
is slightly speckled with brown, a faint brownish suffusion pervading its outer half; the wing-surface 
is sparsely speckled with dark brown scale-dots, especially beyond the cell j cilia hoary grey. 
Exp. al. 18 mm. Hindwings 1; light greyish brown. Abdomen shining, pale cinereous. Legs pale 
cinereous.
