( 215 ) 



Head, thorax, and abdomen like wing's ; face with a dull rosy bar a) top : 

 forelegs reddish in front. 



Expanse of wings : 38 — 40 mm. 



3 cJc? from Cnshi, Huanueo, Pern, 1900 m. (Hoffmanns). 



A third example from the same locality, to which I give the name of al). 

 conncxa, is slightly smaller (35 mm.). It is distinguished by having in both wings 

 the median and praesubmarginal shades dark purplish brown, broad and diffuse, 

 connected by a similarly coloured streak running from cell-spot, the centre of which 

 is silvery white, along vein 5 to margin ; the rest of each wing is yellower, being 

 less densely speckled, than iir the typical form ; the teeth of the outer line and 

 the marginal spots all well defined. On the underside the markings are deeper 

 rosy and broader. 



The species is closely allied to A. lancearia Feld. ; but the forewiugs are less 

 acute, and the hindmargin, and consequently the transverse markings, less oblique ; 

 the ground-colour also is a warmer yellow. 



73. Anisodes ruficeps spec. nov. 



Differs from magnidiscata Warr., in having the vertex and shaft of antennae 

 concolorons with the rest of body instead of white ; also the costal edge of forewing 

 is not paler. In the hindwing the round white cell-mark is slightly larger. 



2 <$ <$ from Cnshi, Huanueo, Pern, 1000 m. (Hoffmanns). 



Of the same size as, and, except in the above-mentioned points, exactly like a 

 typical J example of magnidiscata also from Cnshi. 



74. Anisodes scintillans spec. nov. 



Forewing : pale yellow, thickly speckled, and along the costa suffused, with 

 pale olive-brown ; the lines accompanied by olive-brown shading ; first line from 

 one-sixth of costa to one-fourth of inner margin, angled on subcostal vein at 

 one-third, then oblique inwards ; the olive shade not visible above the subcostal 

 vein and marked on its inner edge with purple-brown spots on the veins ; the spot 

 on costa from which the line starts at one-sixth is preceded by another obliquely 

 below it on subcostal ; median shade thick, olive-brown, from two-thirds of costa 

 to just beyond middle of inner margin, slightly bent at vein 6, passing a little 

 beyond the cell-spot, which is brown-edged with a centre of lustrous silvery scales ; 

 outer and subniarginal lines curved parallel to onter margin : the outer lunulate- 

 dentate, the brown teeth on the veins shown up by a pale band of uuspeckled 

 yellow, as in A. radiata ; the submarginal interrupted to form pale yellow spots 

 preceded and separated by a baud of dark brown ; a row of brown marginal spots ; 

 fringe yellow, flecked with brown ; a horizontal brown shade from cell to margin 

 between veins 4 and 5. 



Hindwing : like forewing, but the cell-spot distinctly larger, the metallic 

 scales grey. 



Underside pale yellow with all the markings and speckling dull rosy. 



Head, thorax, and abdomen pale yellow, washed with deeper ; top of face 

 brownish ; collar dull red, and a spot at back of the pale yellow vertex ; pairs of 

 similar spots on thorax and base of abdomen ; antennae yellow, the shaft red- 

 Bpeckled ; abdomen at sides and beneath and legs yellow ochreons ; forelegs red. 



Expanse of wings : 44 nun.
