04. Chogada vittata sp. nov. 



Fore/riiif/s : white, sjjarsely dnsted with black scales : first Hue at one-fourth, 

 black and curved, preceded by two smoky shades, making the basal area as a whole 

 dark ; second line from costa at three-fourths to two-thirds of inner margin, 

 irregularly dentate Inunlate, bent outwards beyond cell, then incurved, followed by 

 a smoky dark shade; submarginal line uniformly Innulate, preceded and followed 

 by dark shades, the inner one blacker and regular, the outer interrupted below 

 middle ; fringe dark grey, with black marginal lunules at base ; cell-spot sometimes 

 wholly black, sometimes with a pale centre ; generally a faint thin median line 

 through it ; sometimes this line is thickened with a shade which fills up more or 

 less the whole of the central space ; in these specimens all the other shades are 

 thicker. 



Jliiuhciiif/s : like forewings, without first line, the base itself smoky. 



Underside smoky black, the discal spots large and velvety black, each preceded 

 and followed by a whitish space. A small white spot at apex and below middle of 

 hindmargin iu each wing. Head, thorax, and abdomen whitish, speckled with grey; 

 abdomen generally with black basal ring. 



Expanse of wings : 39 mm. 



Four ? ? from Kossel Island, Louisiade Archipelago, February — March 1898

95. Darisa (?) marmorata sp. nov. 



Forewiiiys : stone-grey, dusted slightly with black scales and mottled with 

 numerous transverse grey strigae ; the costa with black spots at the origin of lines ;

 above and below the median vein and marked with black dots on the veins, the 

 portion below submedian vein oblique outwards ; second line (median) from a large 

 black costal s]iot before middle to about middle of inner margin, interrupted, and 

 marked by ilark scales on the veins ; outer line from a similar costal blotch just 

 be3ond middle to two-thirds of inner margin, marked by blackish vein-spots, 

 slightly excurved from vein 6 to 2, the portions of this and the median line below 

 submedian vein obliciue inwards ; this line is followed by a broad rufous-grey shade 

 with denticulate edges on the veins, also starting from a dark costal sjwt ; sub-
