blackish ; a curved median line or shade well beyond it, fuscous bnt vague anteriorly, 

 light brown and distinct (rather broad) posteriorly ; accompanied proximally in the 

 middle of the wing by a patch of strong brown and fuscous irroration which extends 

 nearly to the antemedian line ; postmedian line fuscous, but weak and interrupted, 

 from nearly three-fourths costa to two-thirds hindmargin, the distad curve between 

 W and M" moderate, not at all abrupt ; distal area light brown with a tinge of 

 ochreons and faint traces of pale dentate subterminal line ; proximally to the 

 subterminal a rather darker brown spot on costa, proximally and distally to it 

 l)airs of wedge-shaped fuscous marks between the radials ; termen scarcely dark- 

 dotted except in anterior half ; fringe pale, more greyish, scarcely dark-dotted, a 



whitish line at its base. Jlinfliviiic/ without antemedian line; diseal dot minute; 



median shade obsolete anteriorly, more fuscous posteriorly ; postmedian with the 

 outward curve weaker ; terminal brown shade more uniform, but with a single 

 fuscous mark on radial fold ; terminal dark marks best developed in posterior half 

 of wing and especially at end of radial fold. 



Underside more feebly marked, distal area (especially of forewing) slightly 

 more mixed with fuscous in anterior half

68. Zamarada amicta sji. nov. 



S, 22-23 mm. Closely related to the preceding, possibly a S variety of it. 

 Smaller, rather shorter-winged, third joint of paljjus marked with blackish, thorax 

 and base of abdomen dorsally blackish. 



Forewing with base darkened, marginal shade rather brighter brown, postmedian 

 line more sharply expressed anteriorly and posteriorly, marked with minute proximal 

 teeth, very weak in the middle, making a slightly deeper distad bend, terminal shade 

 darkened, especially in proximal part, which is more ferruginous brown, the distal 



being more purplish brown. Hiiuhrinr/ with median shade shorter, postmedian 



line as deeply bent as on forewing, terminal shade showing nearly the same 

 distinctions as on forewing. 



Underside with the distal border also strengthened, at least the anterior 

 half on both wings, where in the tyi)e it forms fnscescent patches ; termen with

?, 26 mm. Head and palpus wliitc, with a few black spots. Antenna spotted 

 with blackish. Thorax above light violet-grey, beneath white ; abdomen the same, 

 but the first four or five segments occupied dorsally liy a large black blotch which 

 leaves only small spots of the ground-colour. 



Forewing whitish, hyaline, with sparse blackish irroration, costal margin tinged 

 with light brown (towards base more violaceous), more heavily doited and strigulated 

 with black ; base pale violet-grey, black mixed ; cell-spot black, of moderate size, 

 not ocellated, a vague black spot opposite to it on costa; postmedian line black, 

 slightly lunulatc, and with minute, thickened proximal teeth ; arising on costa at
