edged internally witli ]iale green ; the marginal area liovmid it from a]iex to incision 

 slightly pnrplish-tiuged ; five large triangular black marginal siiots at ends of 

 veins 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ; fringe at base dark grey, paler externally; the darker basal half 

 with white spots beyond each of the five black marginal spots. 



Hindwings : pale ochreons, dnsted with grey scales ; the tip of the middle lobe 

 darker grey; the basal lobe very small. 



Underside of forewings greenish grey, becoming fnscous towards hindmargin ; 

 fringe fnscons, with the five white dots well marked ; hindwings as above. Palpi 

 and antennae black, the tips of both pale ; head and thorax green ; abdomen 

 ochreons. 



Expanse of wings : 32 mm. 



One i from Monnt Ged(?, West Java, 4000 feet, 180fi (Fruhstorfer). 



Allied to R. abortimta Gnen. ; distingnished at once by the pale patch at 

 anal angle.

The examination of a ? of this rare species, from Dar-es-Salaam, East Africa, 

 affords me the opportunity of making some slight corrections in Gnenee's descriptions 

 of the genns and species, and referring it, according to the neuration, to its proper 

 snbfamily. 



The specimen before me, which is in very fair condition, does not show any 

 white veins ; perhaps Gnenee's examples were worn or rnbbed. The tongne is 

 Ijresent, bnt very slightly developed. The antennae of this ? are strongly pecti- 

 nated, and I am inclined to believe that this pectination misled Guende into 

 describing his type as a J. It will bo noticed that in his description he refers only 

 to the i ; bnt he afterwards records from Abyssinia a male and ?k female, querying 

 this latter, jiossibly as not having any antennae left, for in his remarks on the genns 

 he says, " The abdomen of the cJ is so thick that, were it not for the presence of 

 antennae, it might lead to a mistake." 



The nenration is almost identical with that of Pseudenchlora Hmpsn. : the dis- 

 cocellular in forewings oblique ; in hindwings twice bent, inwards at the npper, 

 outwards at the lower third, from which latter the radial arises. The genns must 

 therefore be referred to the Trichopten/ginae, next to Leptostegna Chr. and 

 Pseudeuchlova Hmpsn., from both of which it differs in the pectinated antennae. 

 The frennlnm (in the ? ) is represented by a few hairs only. 



Subfamily HYDRIOMENINAE. 

 100. Cainptogramma constellata sp. nov. 



Forewings : black-brown, very much like stellata Gnen. from America and 

 the West Indies ; the margins of the central fascia darker, and marked by pale dots 

 on the veins ; snlimarginal line irregularly dentate, pale ochreons, with a small bnt 

 distinct pale sjxjt beyond it between veins 3 and 4 ; marginal line black, with faint 

 pale dots before it ; fringe dark, with pale apices. 



Hindwings : similar. 



Underside cinereons ; the lines and cell-spots dark brown. Head, (horax, and 

 abdomen concolorous with wings. 



Expanse of wings : 34 mm. 



One ? from Manritins.
