( 343 ) 



marginal bar from costa thicker and darker; in tlie bindwinj; the brown reticnlating 

 striae are darker and mure nnmerous, and the central band is more broken np : 

 in both wings the fringe is distinctlj' dark brown instead of ochreous. 

 Expanse of wings : 26 mm. 



1 c? from Ogruga, Kiver Niger. 



A much neater insei'.t, and decidedly smaller than sqnam/'qara ; for thongh 



Dr. Pagenstecher gives 20 mm. and 25 mm. respectively for his r? and j , the 



six specimens in Tring Mnseum, all <S cf,'from Natal range from 26 mm. to 

 30 mm. 



52. Pharambara fulvipicta spec. nov. 



Forewing : cream-white, glistening ; a difFnse fnlvons tinge in basal half, 

 strongest below middle ; the inner margin with a plnmboous gloss ; the apex 

 fulvous; traces of three fulvous bands on inner margin, their edges marked with 

 black spots on veins, the antemedian obscure, the postmedian obliiiue, the third 

 at anal angle ; in the fnlvous ape.K close to onter margin are two small dead- 

 white spots edged with black, above and below vein 7, and one minute one 

 below vein 6 ; the pale spaces are dotted, not striated, with darker ; fringe pale 

 fulvous. 



Hindwing : with base plumbeous, limited by a straight deep brown ante- 

 median band ; a snbmarginal fulvons band at anal angle ; the apex fnlvous ; 

 three or four black spots along the interval between veins 5 and 6. 



Underside glossy whitish ; the bauds deep fulvous and strongly marked, 

 especially the centre one of forewing ; the apical white dots of forewing larger, 

 attached to the end of a lustrous streak running below vein 8 ; some black and 

 yellow hair scales at base and along upper margin of ceil. 



Head, thorax, and abdomen plumbeous grey, the face and shonlders mixed 

 with fulvons. 



Expanse of wings : 26 mm. 



2 c?c? from the Khasias, taken in June by a native collector. 



53. Pharambara moorei nom. nov. 



riitiniiitOiira rctkulala Moore, Lejj. Cull. All.:, p. 21:i (1887). 



I propose this name for Moore's reticulata, as Butler hail already published a 

 I'lmrdmbara ri'ticidata in Trans. Kiit. Soc. IS.sO, p. 420, for an Australiiin insect 

 to which Meyrick, unnecessarily, attached his MS. name cri/pairia. 



54. Pharambara obliquifascia spec. nov. 



Like P .fractifascia allied to squatnigera Pag., but equally distinct. The whole 

 of the basal area within the fascia is olive-brown ; the brown fascia, which in 

 squamiqera is postmedian, rising at nearly two-thirds of inner margin and slightly 

 diverging from outer margin, here starts from the middle and runs obliquely parallel 

 to or even converging to outer margin and is continued backwards by au cc^ually 

 distinct and well-margined brown fascia across the hindwing; at the anal angle, 

 instead of the slightly thickened donble stria, is a curved band of brown striae 

 reaching vein 4, which is likewise re)iresiMited on liindwing as au interrupted sinuous 

 reticulated band ; fringes darUcr brown with piile a])ices. 



Expanse of wings : 30 mm. 



1 S from Pnngo Andongo, Angola, April 1875 (A. von Hom-'ver). 



The strong oblique fascia across both wings will -.it once distinguish the species.
