150 NOVITATES ZOOLOGICAE XXII. 1915. 



Head and thorax grey or brownish according to the gronnd colour of the 

 forewing. 



2 ? ? from Mount Goliath, Central Dutch New Guinea, January 1011 

 (A. S. Meek). 



9. Tiracola plagiata ab. nigriclathrata ab. nov. 



Resembles the ordinary form of the ? of phifiiata Wlk., but the space below 

 and beyond the reniform stigma filled up with blackish between the veins, which 

 are marked with yellow scales across the black. 



1 ? from the Khasia Hills, Assam. 



10. Perigea semirubra ab. semibrunnea ab. nov. 



Along with 1 S and 2 ? ? of the ordinary form of P. semirubra Warr. received 

 from Mr. A. S. Meek there came 1 ? , rather larger than the rest, with the forewing 

 deep brown and the powdering and lines white ; the inner and outer lines marked 

 with oblique white streaks at each extremity : the dark blotch beyond the reniform 

 hardly visible ; head and thorax brown like the forewings ; this form I propose to 

 call ab. semibrunnea. ab. nov. The fonr specimens were taken on Mount Goliath. 



11. Conservula indica malayana subsp. nov. 



Differs from the type form indica Moore in the median brown area being 

 scarcely darker than the rest of wing, so that the general coloration appears more 

 uniform ; the inner and outer lines of forewing are more broadly pale. 



3 ? ? from Padang Rengas and 1 ? from Gunung Ijan, in the Tring Museum ; 

 all agree in this respect. 



12. Colobochyla similis spec. nov. 



Closely resembling C. bilineulis Leech from Japan, but smaller ; the inner line 

 waved below the angulation instead of straight ; the outer not simply ontcnrved 

 beyond cell, but bluntly angled on vein 6, tiien irregularly sinuous ; the discal mark 

 darker and angulated ; hindwing paler fuscous, with the fringe concolorous instead 

 of yellowish. 



1 c? from Foochau, China, April 1886. 



13. Serrodes caesia spec. nov. 



Forewing : rufous grey in median area, leaden slate-colour in basal and post- 

 median fields ; inner line pale oblique outwards, angled below median vein, and 

 incurved to vein 1, then excnrved to a black dot on inner margin ; followed by a 

 velvety black band, which swells out into a ronnded blotch below costa and above 

 vein 1 ; median line scarcely visible itself, but the area beyond it above middle 

 more rnfous ; at the end of cell and in the intervals between the bases of veins 2, 3, 

 4, 5 are some small spots of greenish ochreons scales partly edged with black ; in 

 middle of cell a small pale dot; outer line black, lunate-sinuate, bluntly projecting 

 below middle, then sinuate to inner margin, followed by a brown line, along which 

 the slate-coloured postmedian area is edged with a brown shade ; terminal area 

 beyond the indefinite subterminal line dark olive fuscous, including the fringe. 



Hindwing : olive fuscous tinged with brown, darker with a slaty flush in outer 

 half beyond a brown pale-edged median line ; a pale wavy subterminal line from 

 anal angle, and a small patch of bluish white scales on termen below vein 2 ; fringe 

 dark brown.
