115. Asthena argentipuncta spec. nov. 



Forewinq : pale yellow, tinged with deeper yellow along costa and hindmargin ; 

 crossed by bands of round dull silvery spots ringed with brown-red ; in the ? these 

 spots are small and separate except along subcostal vein ; in the S they are large, 

 with the brown rings thicker, and therefore more or less confluent, especially in basal 

 half; there are four antemedian series, including one at base itself ; one postmediau 

 and one submarginal ; in the postmediau the two spots on vein 3 and 4 are displaced 

 outwards ; a larger discal spot, with costal spot above it ; a marginal line of deep 

 brown dashes between veins ; fringe yellow. 



Hinchoing : with the two outer series only ; the cell-spot and two joined spots 

 below it. 



Underside of forewing irregularly brown along costa ; only the outer and 

 submarginal lines represented as brown spots, not reaching inner margin ; of 

 hindwing with the outer lines marked only on costa; both wings with fine 

 marginal line ; in the ? the lines are not shown, and the brown along costa 

 is much reduced. 



Face deep yellow ; vertex white ; thorax and alidomen yellow, the dorsal 

 segments deep yellow marked with silvery spots ; anal segment and underneatii

117. Hastina viridata spec nov. 



Forewing : greenish white, the lines dark green, all wavy, and in the main 

 parallel to hindmargin ; two near base, two in middle, and two towards hindmargin 

 form darker bands, separated by pale sjjaces, each traversed by paler green lines ; 

 all alike are darker on the veins, followed by paler dashes ; the median band 

 generally shows two deeper areas, one beyond cell, the other above inner margin ; 

 a dark green marginal line preceded by pale spaces between the veins ; fringe 

 whitish, chequered with green at the vein-ends,
