Unrlerside flossy cinereous, the liimlwiiigs jialiT. Faee uml palpi dark : tiuirax 

 grey ; abdomen wanting. 



Expanse of wings : 2S mm. 



One d from Petropolis, Prov. Rio de Janeiro. 



9ii. Ptychopoda (?) amplimargo sp. uov. 



Forewings : dull fnlvons, dusted with darljer ; the markings indistinct ; traces 

 of an autemedian and postmedian Ijrowii line, with a distinct brown cell-spot : tlie 

 postmedian nearer the hindmargin than usnal. 



Hindivings : the same, with a brown snbmarginal sliade. 



Underside the same. Thorax and abdomen coucolorons : head damaged. 



Expanse of wings : 16 mm. 



One S from Petropolis. 



The only example is much wasted, Imt the peculiar sliapo of the wings will 

 distinguish it. The hindmargin of forewings is very oblique and runs into the inner 

 margiil without any anal angle, the inner margin itself being mucli bulged out in 

 its outer half. The liindwings are broad, well rounded, anil the inner margin 

 greatly developed, being folded or thickened ; the cell of the hindwings is very 

 broad ; veins C and 7 on a long stalk ; vein 3 before lower angle of cell. 



01. Ptychopoda (?) jamaicensis sp. nov. 



Forewings : whitish grey, dusted with dark grey: a blackish spot at base : the 

 lines blackish, waved, starting from dark costal spots at one-fourth, one-half, and 

 three-fourths respectively, the median line on costa being somewhat beyond the 

 middle ; submarginal shade formed of dark grey blotches, interrnpteil opposite cell 

 and on submedian fold : cell-spot small, black : a row of black marginal spots 

 between veins ; fringe pale, with a minute dark dot at base lieyond each vein. 



Hi/K/iri//(/» : similar. 



Underside dingy grey, the fringes paler. Pace and palpi lilackisli ; vortex, 

 thorax, and abdomen pale grey. 



Expanse of wings : 20 — 28 mm. 



Common from Jamaica. 



Some specimens are much darker grey, with the lines strongly expressed. In 

 the forewings vein 10 anastomoses with 11, and again with 7, 8, 9, forming a double 

 areole ; veins 0, 7, of hindwings are stalked. The antennae of S densely ciliated. 

 The species snjjerficially much resembles Craspedid jUiulata (inen. from Intlia. 



92. Ptychopoda limitata sp. nov. 



Foreirhigs : yellow, dusted with ferruginous scali-s : the lines jinrjilisli ; first at 

 one-third, hue, obtusely bent on the median vein : basal area sutl'used with purplish 

 grey scales ; outer line at three-fourths, minutely waved, curved towarils margin 

 from costa to submedian fold, then vertical : marginal area beyond it filled, like the 

 basal, with purjjlish grey, except the apical fourtli, where the scales are ferrnginons: 

 in the pale central field a faint ferruginous sinuous lino is visible towards the outer 

 line and beyond the minute dark cell-spot ; marginal lino dark {>nr]ilisli, tlie fringe 

 paler. 



llinilwinqs : yellow, with ferruginous lines and scales.
