1. Opogona metanastes, sp. n. (Tab. X. fig. 10.) 
Antennae pale fawn-ochreous. Palpi with the usual flattened terminal joint ; pale fawn-ochreous, shaded 
with brown above. Head and Thorax fawn-brown. Forewings fawn-brown, with a paler streak on the 
outer half, extending from beyond the middle of the fold through the lower angle of the cell to the cilia 
below the apex; at the apex is a slender silvery metallic streak, dark margined on either side, the 
brown cilia above the apex also showing a slight metallic lustre along their tips; underside shining 
bronzy purplish, with a distinct golden metallic lustre about the apex. Hwp.al.ll mm. Hindwings 3, 
pale bronzy brown; cilia fawn-brown. Abdomen fawn-brown. Legs pale fawn-brownish. 
Type 2 (66773) Mus. Wl1sm. (Godm-Salv. Coll.) BM. 
‘Hab. Muxico: tapasco: Teapa, III. (ZZ. H.Smith). Unique. 
‘This species is smaller and darker than werota Wism., and has narrower wings ; 
it is easily distinguishable by the metallic streak near the apex of the forewings—the 
type is in poor condition, but obviously distinct. 
2. Opogona pyrographa, sp. n. | 
Antennae fawn-ochreous. Palpi with the terminal joint flattened and dilated ; fawn-ochreous, much darker 
on the upper side. Head brownish fuscous ; face pale fawn-ochreous. Thorax brownish fuscous. 
Forewinys pale fawn-ochreous, longitudinally streaked with brownish fuscous; the dorsum is almost 
entirely suffused with this dark colour throughout, and there is a broad streak of the same running 
from the base along the cell and to the apex, dilated downward to the fold before and about the middle ;. 
a shorter streak, above this, commences beyond the base and is lost in a dark costal spot at the com- 
mencement of the cilia; cilia pale fawn-ochreous, except where divided at the extreme apex by the
