Forewing ; nniform grey, like insufusa, speckled and tinged with black ; inner 

 line donble, waved, obliqne inwards below middle ; outer line very ill-defined at 

 costa, below vein 6 dentate-lanulate, oblique parallel to termen ; subterminal pale, 

 preceded by thick diffuse black scaling, except on cell-fold ; dentate inwards on 

 submedian fold, the curve below it tinged with ferruginous ; terminal area dark ; 

 a black dot in cell and an ill-defined reniform stigma at end, filled up with 

 ferruginous red. 



Hindjcing : grey in basal half, suffused with blackish in outer area, with a pale 

 grey subterminal line, tinged with ferruginous between veins 2 and 4 ; the space

1 ? from Mt. Marapok, Britisli North Borneo. 



Distinguished from the other species of the genus by its shorter and broader 

 wings, and from its nearest allies by the red-filled reniform stigma, without black 

 lateral bars ; antennae broken. 



Subfamily STIOTOPTERINAE. 



29. Stictoptera mimica spec. nov. 



Paler in both sexes than striata Hmps. ; the ? pale ochreous tinged with 

 brownish, the c? suffused with pale reddish ; a fine dark brown streak from base 

 along median vein ; the costal area more or less suffused with brown in the ? and 

 red-brown in the t?, leaving the veins finely pale; the dark streak from vein 4 

 at termen to near base of inner margin much narrower and more condensed, less 

 diffuse inwardly ; a dark spot at lower angle of cell and dot between veins 3 and 4 

 at base ; subterminal line wavy, whitish, sharply iuangled below costa, and more 

 strongly developed below middle as the edge of the black streak ; hindwing as in 

 striata ; patagia concolorous with ground colour of forewing. 



Expanse of wings : c? 46 mm ; ? 42 mm. ; a small ? from Bougainville 

 36 mm. only. 



Besides the difference in coloration the forewing is narrower than in striata. 



Rossel Island, Goodenough Island, the Solomons, and New Guinea (types). 



The ? , in the forewing, is a good mimic of Cucullia bjchnitis.

 outcurved, lunulate-dentate, the inner arm brown, the outer purplish black ; the 

 teeth well marked on the veins ; a brown shade along inner margin from vein 3
