170 REVISION OF AUSTRALIAN TORTRICINA, 



Vic: Gisboine(Lyell) — S. Aust.: Mount Lofty, Mount Gam- 



bier(Guest); in October and November. Three specimens seen, 



all$. 



45. /. cosmota M.eyv. 



(Isochorista cosmota Meyr., Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S Wales, 1886, 

 1038; Acropolitis heliochares Low., Proc. Linn. vSoc. N. S. Wales, 

 1898, 47.) 



Forevvings with costal fold reaching to beyond middle; a sub- 

 costal flap of projecting scales from near base to near middle; an 

 expansible triangular projection of scales from dorsum towards 

 base. Hindwings beneath with a strong upcurved longitudinal 

 ridge traversing upper part of cell, causing partial distortion of 

 wing; 5 unusually remote from 4. 



Vic: Gisborne(Lyell) — S. Aust.: Mount Lofty(Guest), Black- 

 wood(Lower); in November and December. Very distinct by 

 the yellow colouring, with dark fuscous costal streak and poste- 

 rior band; I give fully the peculiar .sexual characters above; only 

 three ^ specimens seen. 



12. PvRGOTis Meyr. 



Pyrgotis Meyr., Proc. Linn. Soc. N. S. Wales, 1881, 



439 ... ... ... ... ... ... type insignana. 



Antennae in ^ moderately strongly ciliated. Palpi moderate, 

 subascending, second joint with rough projecting scales beneath 

 and towards apex above, terminal moderate. Thorax with large 

 double crest. Forewings with 7 and 8 stalked, 7 to termen. 

 Hindwings with 3-5 separate, equidistant, rather approximated 

 towards base, 6 and 7 short-stalked. 



Besides the following, I now include only two New Zealand 

 species in this genus. Prof. Fernald endeavours to make P. 

 plagiatana Walk., the type, but it does not agree with the 

 structural characters as defined.
