Pareupithex gen. nov. 



This genus is allied to Deinopygia Warr., but differs as follows : 



In the hindwing veins 6, 7 are uot stalked as in Deinopygia ; the genus may 

 therefore be considered as an off-shoot of Em mi It is rather than of Ptychopoda. 



The forewing has the anal angle produced into a hook, clothed with a bed 

 of rough curled hairs, the inner margin below also having a tuft of hairs ; outer 

 margin longer than inner margin. The hindwing towards anal angle is similarly 

 clothed with rough hairs above and below, the anal angle being produced as a blunt 

 lobe, the outer margin just above it indented only, not excised. 



The structure of the hindlegs and of the abdomen coincides with Deinopygia. 



Type: Pareupitkex eupitheeiata Guen. {Acidalia). 



91. Tricentra bisignata spec. nov. 



Forewing : liver-coloured, with three thick darker lines placed as in the closely 

 allied species T. quadrigata Feld. ; the two folds marked with bright red, from 

 before first line to median, and extended diffusely to submarginal, the intervals 

 between 2 and 3, 3 and 4 also tinged with red; a snow-white mark on discocellular 

 swollen below ; fringe and extreme outer margin beyond the straight dark edge 

 of ground-colour, yellow. 



Hi nrf icing : similar : the white cell-mark larger and broadened at base along 

 median vein ; another snow-white mark from base along median nearly touching 

 the outer ; cell area between the spots deep bright red, the area beyond and below 

 cell sprinkled with red scales. 



Underside dull greyish rosy, with pale marks on discocellulars ; fringe and 

 margin yellow ; outer line alone visible. 



Head, thorax, and dorsum liver-colour ; abdomen at sides and beneath, and 

 legs ochreons ; antennae bright red. 



Expanse of wings : 24 mm. 



1 3 from Tinguri, Carabaya, Pern, 3400 ft., August 1904, dry season 

 (Ockenden). 



Distinguished from quadrigata Feld. by the double white spot of hindwing. 



92. Tricentra citrinaria spec. nov. 



Forewing : dull golden yellow, suffused from the base outwards with olive 

 fuscous, the costa except quite close to base and the outer margin remaining yellow ; 

 first line blackish, obscure, from one-fourth of costa to one-third of inner margin, 

 slightly waved, but, vertical from the subcostal bend ; second and third lines 

 indicated only by the paler shade of fuscous, starting close together from the 

 subcostal vein at two-thirds, outcnrved to vein 4, forming a bilobed projection 

 towards margin below middle, then incurved and waved, the inner to two-thirds 

 of inner margin, the outer to close before anal angle ; a yellowish projection 

 from costal streak over the discocellular ; a concise fuscous curved streak from 

 costa before apex to middle of inner margin : fringe dull yellow. 



Hindwing: with the two outer shades of forewing; the submargiual streak 

 fine at apex, thickening to anal angle ; cell-spot formed of two white dots, one 

 at each end of discocellular. 



Underside dull ochreons in marginal area, suffused with dark violet grey from 

 base to outer shade ; the cell-marks- represented by pale spots.
