Newcastle and Sydney, New South Wales, from September to 

 November ; eight specimens, taken mostly at lamps. The species 

 is variable, but widely different from any other known to me. 



7. EucROSTis, Hb. 



Face smooth. Antenna? in ^ bipectinated, towards apex 

 simple. Palpi rather short, porrected, loosely scaled, terminal 

 joint short or moderate. Posterior tibise in both sexes with 

 middle spurs absent. Abdomen in ^ with uncus simple, with 

 basal process beneath. Forewings with veins 3 and 4 separate, 

 6 separate or from point with or out of 9, 10 out of 9, 11 anasto- 

 mosing with or running into 12. Hindwings with veins 3 and 4 

 separate or stalked, 6 and 7 from a point or stalked.
