Euphemia gen. nov. 



Forewing : costa nearly straight, convex just before apex j inner margin 

 convex; outer margin irregular; bluntly toothed at 6, insinuate beyond Cell and 

 at submedian fold, gibbous between, more or less vertical from apex to 3, then 

 strongly oblique. 



Hindwing : with outer margin well rounded ; insinuate beyond the folds and 

 bent at 6; the inner margin amplified into a flap. 



Antennae (8) simply lamellate; palpi porrect, rough-haired, the terminal 

 segment depressed and smooth; tongue present; frenulum long and slender; 

 femora hairy ; hindtibiae with four long spurs. 



Neuration : forewing, cell half as long as wing; discocellnlar vertical; first 

 median nervule at two-thirds, second shortly before third ; lower radial from a little 

 above middle of discocellnlar ; upper from upper angle; 7, 8, 9, 10 stalked from 

 two-thirds; 11 free: hindwing, with costal and subcostal shortly approximated 

 at base ; veins 6, 7 from upper angle ; vein 2 not far before 3 and 4. 



Type : Euphemia ?nollis spec. nov. 



The genus does not seem to bear any immediate affinity with any other. 



285. Euphemia mollis spec. nov. 



Forewing: slaty grey, with tine transverse darker striae; eosta paler, broadly 

 dull yellowish ; basal and marginal areas deeper grey, ill-defined ; basal line diffuse, 

 fromoue-third of costa to one-half of inner margin, projecting out wards in submedian 

 interval ; outer line waved, parallel to outer margin, from three-fourths of costa 

 to three-fourths of inner margin ; the intervening space pale grey, subtransparent, 

 with a black cell-spot ; a yellow spot on costa before apex; extreme outer margin 

 narrowly and interruptedly pale ; fringe dark grey, whitish beyond the two folds. 



Hindwing : wholly dark grey, with a deeper thick line curved from beyond 

 middle of costa to inner margin above anal angle, towards which it is deflexed ; 

 fringe and extreme outer margin pale yellow, the fringe chequered with dark. 



Underside like upper, but duller. 



Thorax aud abdomen pale grey ; head, palpi, and antennae ferruginous. 



Expanse of wings : 30 mm.

 season (Uckeudeu). 



286. Eusenea nucleata spec nov. 



This species is very much like E. rotundata Warr. from Venezuela. The larger 

 white cell-spot, pyriform in shape, with a black dot in centre, will always distinguish 

 it. The outer line is more oblique and straight ; along the outer margin is a broad 

 brown cloud ; the margin itself shows slight elbows at veins 3 aud (5 ; a single 

 white submarginal dot above vein 6. The hindwing is dark brown, with a darker 

 postmedian shade, but no distinct line ; one white dot above vein (i. 



Underside fulvous-brown ; inner half of forewing shining white ; cell-spot with 

 the black centre larger ; a dark, straight outer line from costa to vein 4 in forewing, 

 waved and crossing the hindwing to a paler patch above anal angle ; an obscure 

 pale cell-spot. 



Head, thorax, and abdomen fulvous ; legs fulvous, with white joints ; antennae 



aud a very fine frontal line white. (
