218 REVISION OF AUSTRALIAN TORTRICINA, 



in middle; central fascia indicated on upper half by interrupted 

 margins, and in disc by an oblique patch of suffusion, beneath 

 this obsolete; costal patch moderate, semioval, well-defined, on 

 costa marked with pale greyish-ochreous; a small costal spot 

 beyond this: cilia fuscous mixed with red-brown. Hindwings 

 grey, faintly darker-strigulated; cilia light grey, with darker 

 subbasal shade. 



Q.: Mount Tambouriue(Turner); in November, two specimens. 



149. C. polygraphana Walk. 



{Tortrix polygraphana Walk., Cat. xxviii., 330; Cacoecia poly- 

 graphana Meyr., Proc. linn. Soc. N. S. Wales, 1881, 495.) 



Palpi in ^ with expansible whitish hairs above; antennae in ^ 

 whitish above, with a short black streak on stalk near base. 

 Tliis latter character is peculiar to the species, and will distin- 

 guish it from all similar insects. The species is nearly allied to 

 the two preceding, and the resemblance to some species of Tortrix 

 {7\ J'errea, T. pyrose7nana, and T. lag anodes) is superficial only; 

 the structural characters of palpi and broad costal fold aflford 

 clear distinctions.

Varies considerably; there is a common variety of ^ with pale 

 thorax and basal patch of forewings, which gives it a distinct 

 appearance; also there is a form of 9 in which the markings are 

 quite as in normal (J; the other and diverse form arises from this
