CIll'VOll. 



JJiii<liriii</s : kite-shaped, with a distinct tooth at veiu 4; sinuous above, straight 

 below. 



Palpi thick, porrect, the terminal joint- minute. Antennae of J witli short 

 stiflf branches, as in Hrmistohi '\^'arr. ; frenulum and tongue present ; legs short ; 

 hindtibiae thickened, with a groove and pencil of hairs, and four stout spurs. 



Keunition : forewings, cell not half the length of wing ; discocellular with 

 upper third vertical, then concave and oblique : first median at tliree-fifths, second 

 close before third ; lower radial from the bend of the discocellular ; u])per stalked 

 witli 7, 8, 9, 10 ; 11 free. Hindwings, with 3, 4, and 0, 7 stalked ; costal shortly 

 approximated to subcostal near base. 



Typo : Antharmostrs mcsoh'urii sj). nov. 



Wings without markings ; dark green. 



48. Antharmostes mesoleuca sp. nov. 



Foreioings : dark green ; costa pale with fuscous dots ; a faintly dark(>r cell- 

 spot ; marginal line red-brown, interrupted at the veins ; preceded between veins 3 

 and 4 by a white, red-edged lunule ; tliickened between 2 and 3, and preceded by a 

 shallow whitish lunule between 1 and '1 ; fringe rufous. 



llimhdnqs : similar ; the white lunnlc running into tlie tooth at middle : 

 some whitish scales at apex before marginal line. 



Underside glossy whitish green, with a very faint reddish tinge towards base 

 of forewings ; fringe rufous. Face and jialjii above black-brown, palpi beneath 

 ochreous ; vertex and thorax faded, apjiarently green ; abdomen ochreous, dusted

49. Chlorochroma (?) marginata sp. nov. 



Forewini/A : bright apple-green, without markings ; costa ochreous white ; 

 fi'ingo silvery white, preceded by a d(^ep brown-red uninterrupted marginal line, 

 which is edged inwardly with rufous between the veins, and is continued for a 

 short distance along the costa, strongly lustrous throughout.

Underside glossy whitish green ; costal edge of forewings ochreous. Face, 

 palpi, vertex, and antennae ochreous white ; thorax green ; abdomen ochreous.

One ? from Little Kei, June 1897 (H. Kiihn). 



The right position of this insect is doubtful ; the antennae are thickened 

 basewards and subserrate ; the palpi longer ami thinner than usual ; the hindtibia 

 (?) has a single long spur just above tlie terminal pair. In the forewings veins 

 3 and 4 are stalked, vein 2 rising shortly before end of cell ; 7,8,9, 10 stalked; 

 11 free. Perhaps related to leticoincrala Wlk.
