scaled prominence, apex rounded off, termen vertical, rounded 

 beneath; termination of 7 indefinite; light brownish or reddish- 

 fuscous, irregularly clouded with darker towards dorsum; some 

 small dark fuscous spots on costa, especially towards posterior 

 prominence, and in (J a darker fuscous patch extending along 

 costa from base to prominence, suflfused with bronzy -green 

 towaids each end; dorsum strigulated with dark fuscous; some 

 small scattei'ed tufts of whitish and black scales in disc; two 

 blackish dots above and below fold about |, and two others about 

 middle, in ^ distinct and edjjed wi'h whitish suffusion, in Q less 

 marked; a darker fuscous marginal streak round apex and termen: 

 cilia whitish-ochreous mixed with light reddish-fuscous and grey. 

 Hind wings daik fuscous, in ^ lighter and tinged with bronzy- 

 yellow except towards apex; cilia greyish. 



Q.: Brisbane(Turner); in Apiil, four specimens. In this species 

 the apex of forewings is obliquely rounded so that it is impossible 

 to say where the actual apex is, and the termination of 7 is there- 

 fore indefinite; in B. smaragdinana the apex is well-definefl, and 

 7 clearly ends in termen; the two species being closely allied, and 

 having all other structures identical, we are justified in this 

 instance in classing the indefinite termination with the terminal.
