what brighter reddish brown, with an obliquely placed deep chestnut brown 

 dorsal derai-band, nearer the base than the inner angle, and extended 10 the 

 disk, convex internally and concave externally, and with a small quadrate 

 patch on the inner margin, near the inner angle. Near the hind margin are 

 two subterminal ferruginous lines. Hind wings dark fuscous. 

 This insect may be the 9 of the previous species. 



MONOSPHRAGIS. 



Fore wings with a closely oppressed, broad, rounded fold at the base in the (J 1 . 

 The costa is regularly arcuated from the base to the tip, which, as well as tne 

 hind margin, is rounded. The disk with a secondary cell; apical vein simple ; 

 the medio-posterior nervule arises at a point nearly between the origins of the 

 first and second subcosto-marginal nervules. In the hind wings the branches 

 of the subcostal vein are connivent at their bases ; discal vein arched ; the upper 

 branch of the median is forked near its middle, and a curved medio-discal branch 

 arises almost immediately from the median, behind the bifurcation of the upper 

 branch. Thorax crested. 



Head scarcely smooth. With ocelli. Face very slightly tufted in the middle. 

 Antennae rather thick, with joints closely set and roughened. Palpi equal to the face, 

 arched, cylindrical, covered with appressed scales: middle joint thickened 

 beyond the middle, and somewhat truncate ; basal joint with hairy scales, rather 

 longer than the apical, which is minute, smooth and placed in the middle of the 

 second joint. Tongue equal to the palpi in length. 



M. otiosana. Dark brown, with a purplish hue. Fore wings with a 

 rather large quadrate, very pale yellow dorsal patch, and a brownish white 

 ocelloid patch, containing three black points. Costa near the tip, with a few 

 whitish striae, containing a brown central point. Tip and margin beneath it 

 ferruginous. Hind wings dark fuscous. 



Lozopera ? Stephens. 



Fore wings rather narrow ; costa arcuated, rather abruptly near the tip of 

 the wing; tip rather acute; hind margin obliquely truncate; inner angle 

 rounded, with the cilia produced ; inner margin excavated behind the inner angle, 

 at the end of the submedian vein and thence to the base rounded. The disk is 

 broad behind, without secondary cell, with the discal vein obliquely inclined 

 to the base; apical vein simple; the two superior nervules of the median vein 

 arise from a common point, and the medio-posterior nervule is not remote, and is 

 opposite the second marginal nervule. Hind wings rather elongate, not broader 

 than the fore wings ; costal and subcostal veins distinct to the base; subcostal 

 vein forked in the apical third of the wing, with the discal vein extremely oblique, 

 arising from the subcostal in the basal third of the icing ; the disco-central arises 

 somewhat on the median side, on an oblique stalk; median three-branched, 

 the medio- central and disco-central equidistant from the medio-superior 

 nervule. 



Head smooth. Without ocelli. Face smooth (?). Eyes round, moderately 

 prominent. Antennae slender, setaceous. Palpi exceed the face by more than 

 one half their length, rather slender, curved and porrected ; the middle joiDt 

 sub-tvfted beneath, with the hairs directed forward, and thinly clothed above ; 

 terminal joint placed above the tuft, slender, short, smooth. Tongue not more 

 than one half as long as the labial palpi. 



L. ? an gust an a. Palpi and head white, tinged with yellowish. Fore 

 wings pale greenish yellow, with three greenish brown streaks along the costa, 

 the longest at the base, one about the middle, and one near the tip ; a dark 

 greenish brown dorsal patch about the middle of inner margin, and a greenish 

 fascia from the inner margin at the base, inclines to the middle of the costa, and 

 not extended to it. Hind margin with a few terminal dark brownish spot?. 

 Hind wings whitish, tinged with fuscous.
