nd downward to the lower angle of the 
shades and irregular in its ill-defined outline, extends outward a Y 
} the space above and beyond it showing 
cell, where it is diffused outward to the lower terminal streaks, 
narrow lines of dark fuscous scaling disconnected from the marginal streaks beyond them ; below the fold 
is a small dark fuscous patch near the base, throwing a narrow line along vein 1° and expanding again 
in an angular patch connected outward at its apex to the lower angle of the cell—below it are a few 
scattered spots of fuscous scales. Eup. al. 30 mm. Hindwings brownish fuscous ; cilia pale fawn, 
mottled on the termen and apex with pale brownish fuscous. Abdomen greyish fuscous. Legs pale 
fawn, shaded externally and banded on the hind tarsi with pale brownish fuscous.

12. Acrolophus corymba, sp. n., Drnt. | 
Antennae fuscous. Palpi densely clothed, recurved and very closely appressed to the head, not reaching 
farther back than the base of the antennae; dark purplish fuscous. Head dark fuscous, with some 
admixture of brownish and purplish. Forewings dark fuscous, irrorate throughout with slightly raised 
purplish scales, and with two conspicuous tufts of raised brownish scales in the fold, with a smaller tuft 
immediately below an elongate dark brownish plical patch ; the costa is spotted throughout with dark 
brownish fuscous, some of these spots being followed by others in oblique lines across the wing; a patch 
of dark scales occurs at the end of the cell, and another, ovate, below the apex, with a series of indistinct 
dark spots at the base of the fuscous cilia through which run two darker lines. Exp. al, 28 mm. 
Hindwings fuscous ; cilia fuscous, with a dark line running through them near their base. Abdomen 
hairy above; dark greyish fuscous: genitalia, uncus double, bent over, not projecting beyond the 
spatulate claspers. Legs fuscous, hind tibiae and basal joint of tarsi with loug paler hairs.

13. Acrolophus victrix, sp. n. 
Antennae slightly serrate inthe 9; brownish fuscous. Palpt porrect, obliquely elevated, extending to about 
the length of the head beyond it; very roughly clothed, but not densely hairy ; dark brownish ochreous 
beneath, more fuscous above. Head rough; dark brownish fuscous, Jprewings long, widening outward, 
with rounded apex and oblique termen; brownish fuscous, mottled with darker shades of the same and 
with some chestnut-brown and dark brownish ochreous patches; the darker shades form a series of 
indistinct costal spots, an indistinct patch at about the middle of the cell, another at the end of the cell, 
slightly preceded by another below the cell which is more or less diffused and connected with’ the 
wedian patch, an elongate oblique patch opposite to the middle of the termen and some transverse 
mottling near the base ; the chestnut-brown tinge is chiefly visible from the end of the cell to the termen 
above the tornus, on the middle of the dorsum, and in a small spot between the cell ‘and the fold at about 
one-fifth from the base; the dark ochreous tinge is mainly confined to two angular patches above the 
dorsum, one before and one beyond the middle, their apices encroaching upon the dark ground-colour 
on the lower half of the cell before the middle and at the lower angle of the cell respectively ; there is 
also an oblique elongate patch beyond the cell, pointing to and nearly reaching the costa before the apex ; 
cilia brownish fuscous, mottled with paler shades. Zap. al. 35 mm. Hindwings brownish fuscous ; cilia 
slightly paler, but with a dark shade-line near their base. Abdomen fuscous. 
hind tibiae fuscous, tipped with dull ochreous.
