snbmarginal line visOile only beyond t-ell, where it is iireceJed by two blackish 

 luntiles aud followed by blackish scales. 



Ilindwim/a : similar, but the dense dusting coutineil to a diffuse central fascia; 

 fringe of both wings pale ochreons. 



Underside rather paler, less densely dusted. Palpi blackish; face yellow, or 

 dark fuscous with lower third yellow; vertex ami shdulders yellow; thorax and 

 abdomen ochreous, with darker scales ; legs dark grey. 



Expanse of wings : &) — 68 mm. 



Two S (? from Tawaya, north of Palos Bay, Celebes, August and Sejitember 1890 

 (W. Doherty). 



These may be the cJ c? of Buzura jmra Warr. from S. Celebes, of which only

Forewinys : dull whitish, overlaid with jjale olive-grey and sparse black scales; 

 the lines black ; first from costa at one-sixth, running out along subcostal vein to 

 beyond middle of cell, there strongly angled, and oblique and wavy to inner margin 

 at one-sixth; second from costa before middle, rnnning oblirj^uely outwards to beyond 

 cell-spot, there bluntly angled, obliipie inwards to origin of first median nervule, 

 acutely angled basewards, curved outward and oblique to inner margin before middle; 

 outer line at two-thirds, at first shortly incurved, then running outwards, but less 

 obliquely, bluntly angled on vein 5, and oblique to inner margin in middle, just 

 beyond median line, bluntly angled outwards above the submedian vein ; snbmarginal 

 line strongly zigzag, somewhat interrupted; an olive-grey marginal fascia ; traversed 

 between the veins by horizontal black streaks, each running to the apex of a black 

 marginal lunule ; fringe whitish, chequered with dark at the ends of the veins ; 

 cell-spot small, black. 



Ilindwings : with a central biarcuate line from inner margin to cell ; a curved 

 postmedian line ; cell-spot large, black ; hiudmargin as in forewiugs, but the 

 subraarginal line still more indistinct ; the marginal line strongly crennlate, the 

 horizontal black streaks obscure. 



Underside dingy grey ; both cell-spots largo and black ; black spots on costa at 

 origin of lines in both wings ; the outer line marked across the wing. Face and 

 palpi white below, black above; vertex white ; collar black ; basal third of antennae 

 white, the rest black. Thorax white, the tips of the shoulders black ; abdomen 

 whitish, tinged with grey, each segment behind with a black white-edged ring, the 

 black developed into a double row of small spots along the dorsal area. 



Expanse of wings : 35 mm. 



One ? from S. Africa. 



The margin of hindwings is strongly indented beyond the submedian fold, so 

 that the anal angle ai>pears lobed. In the forewiugs veins l<i and 11 are coincident; 

 in the hindwings the costal is ajiproximated to the subcostal for fully three-fourths 

 of cell.
