SI. Ephemerophila costistrigata sp. nov. 



Forewinga: pale ochveous, varied towards hindniargin witli olive and fulvous 

 shades : the lines pale fulvous ; the eosta fuscous, marked with blackish ; first line 

 jmle fulvous, double, biangulated as usual, the upper angle beneath costa becoming 

 (lark fuscous; exterior line thin, fulvous, preceded by a thicker more diflfuse fulvous 

 central line; the end of the exterior line forms a long dark fuscous subcostal streak, 

 runninc Iia.sewards so as nearly to touch the upper dark tooth of the first line ; it is 

 followed bv a broad grevish olive fascia, which is more distinct above, where it 

 extends from the apex along the hindmargin to the elbow; from the elbow to the 

 anal angle is a fulvous suffusion, separated from th<> olive liand by a jiale ochreous 

 sitaco : fi-inge pale ochreous, varied witli fulvous, altogether fulvous towards apex. 



Jdndvimgn: ochreous, crossed by numerous fuscous olive streaks ; a dark fascia 

 close to base, and a diffuse one beyond middle; a broad submarginal olive fuscous 

 band, limited internally by a dark line; the hindniargin fulvous and ochreous; fringe 

 as in forewings. 



Thorax and abdomen ochreous, mottled with fulvous ; collar and head darker, 

 mixed with fuscous. Underside pale ochreous grey, much mottled with coarse 

 blackish atoms; both wings with a black cell-spot , and a broad olive-grey submarginal 

 fascia, the inner edge of which is marked by a row of black spots on the veins; 

 marginal area of lx)th wings below the middle ochreous. 



Expanse of wings : 48 mm. 



Two or three c? cj from the Khasias. 



Distinguished by the pale ochreous ground-colour and almost obsolete lines.

Forewings: ochreous fawn-colour, suffused in parts with pinkish and grcpnish, 

 and towards the hindmargin with dull red-brown; first line exactly as in Immemria 

 Moore, but very distinct and velvety black, the inner arm being vinous ; space 

 included between this line and the base hoary glaucous with a few black atoms, the 

 costal region pinkish ochreous ; the .second line, instead of being, as in humei-aria, 

 a continuous line, is marked only by black vein-.spots, with here and there a thin 

 black thread between: area between the lines, as far as the median from the inner 

 margin pinkish fawn-colour, above the median much mixed with dull green; marginal 

 area clouded with dull reddish brown; above the anal angle is an iiregular blotch of 

 olive-green and blackish scales; fringe concolorous, with no dark liasal line; cell-s[)ot 

 round, black. 



Hindwings: with the basal two-thirds pale pinkish ochreous, varied with a 

 number of longish transxerse grey or fuscous striae, which in places become laterally 

 confluent, and about the middle form an irregular straight fascia ; exterior line, 

 instead of being simple, as in hmneraria, consists of a series of distinct lunules from 

 vein to vein, the line being denticulate outwards on the veins; marginal area dark 

 wood-brown, with a paler pinkish ochreous space from anal angle along liindmargin 

 to the tooth at end of third median. 



Abdomen ochreous, with brown .segmental rings; patagia and thorax glaucous, 

 like the basal space of forewings; collar and face vinous brown; vertex and base of 

 collar pinkish ochreous. Underside pale stone-colour, with scattered fuscous mottlings, 

 and a more or less distinct wood-brown marginal fascia on each wing, strongest towards
