299. Athroolopha chrysitaria latimargo snbsp. nov. 



This new form is remarkable for its large size and brilliant coloration. The 

 bulk of authors have treated chryaitaria as a form of the variable pennigeraria, 

 but Mr. Front tells me he considers it to be a distinct species. 



c? ? . Differs from ch. chrysitaria in its much larger size and deeper colour ; the 

 black margin to hindwing is almost double as wide, and the ante- and postmedian 

 bands on the forewings are much broader and more distinct. 



Victor Faroult never obtained this species, and all the 20 cJc? were caught by 

 myselfon April 21, 1912. 



300. Selidosema'picturata sp. nov. 



Closely allied to S. ambtistaria Hilbn. Gey., but much more strongly marked 

 lid without either the yellow wash or the close strigilation of the upper surface.
