?. Body rnssct-brown above, tawny-olivo beneath. Wings, iijipersidc : 



forewing rnsset-brown, tliis area sharply limited on disc, indented on the veins, 

 dilated before and behind li', reaching posteriorly to inner angle and costally a 

 little beyond apex of cell ; disc ontside the rnsset-brown area fawn-colour, apex 

 washed with mars-brown ; a thin brown line ontside the basi-discal area, nearly 

 following the curve of the outer edge of this area, which it joins behind M'; 



distal margin biconcave, strongly aiignlate at K-, the angle somewhat nmnded. 



liindwing mummy-brown, entire. 



Underside tawny olive, washed with mumm3'-brown. Forewing mummy- 

 brown in centre from base to disc ; a faint line on disc ; an equally faint line 

 obliquely from apex, bordering a faint marginal band which is slightly deeper 



brown than the distal portion of the disc. Hindwing with a fiiiut denticulate 



line on disc, curved like distal margin, but standing farther away from it in front 

 than behind. 



Length of forewing : 32 mm.

10. Xylophanes fosteri spec. nov. 



S ? . Head and thorax olive above, with a pinkish grey side-stripe extending 

 from tip of palpus to apical edge of mesothoracical tegula, edged with white 

 behind, a brownish grey mesial streak on thorax only ; a central line on tegula 

 tawny ; abdomen wood-brown above, greyish at base, clayish towards apex ; this 

 dorsal area bordered by an olivaceous line which somewhat widens basally ; three 

 indistinct dorsal lines ; underside creamy bufif in middle, buff shaded with tawny 

 at sides. Outer spur of midtibia half the length of the inner. 



Wings, uppcrside. Forewing wood-brown shaded with sepia-colour ; apex 



acute, distal margin entire, concave below apex ; seven lines between cell and distal 

 margin, first and second from inner margin to R^, heav}', more or less merged 

 together, the second being continued costad, but the upper portion very thin, third 

 line thin, fourth accentuated by minute vein-dots, the line distinct from R' to apex 

 of wing, fifth also distinct from R^ to apex, indistinct from R' backwards, the npper 

 ]iortions of these two lines more or less contiguous, sixth feeble, seventh vestigial, 

 lines 4 to 7 converging to tip of wing, lines 2 and 3 not reaching costal 

 edge, disapjiearing in a pale Wdod-brown costal subapical space; a small black 

 stigma ; ontside apex of cell a brown cloud which is continued behind R- to 

 lines 4 and 5; a small blackish costal dot distally of subcostal fork, this dot 



being the costal portion of the first line. Hindwing blackish brown ; a dirty 



pinkish band on disc from anal angle to costal edge, which it does not (juite reach, 

 palest behind, being more or less washed with brown in front. 



Underside pale ochraceous, with a faint tint of pink, irrorated witji wood-brown. 



Forewing brown centrally from base beyond apex of cell ; a row of conspicuous 



black-brown vein-dots parallel to margin, curving costad in front, between this row 

 and the cell a more or less vestigial line ; distal marginal area pale wood-brown, 

 this border angulate at R^, reaching here the line of dots. Hindwing: a wood- 

 brown line at lower angle of cell, jiarallel to distal margin, curving costad in front, 

 the lino broad Imt rather faint ; distally of this line and parallel with it a vestige of
