ilitulwings : worn ; apparently with postmedian and submargiual lines. 

 Underside simUar, with the markings obscure. Head, thorax, and abdomen 

 ochreons ; face and palpi dark brown. 

 Expanse of wings : 26 mm. 

 One cJ from Penang, March 1898 (Curtis). 

 Quite the smallest species of the genus. 



102. Sysstema farinosa sp. uov. 



Forewings : whitish, powdered with grey ; the lines olive-fuscous, rather 

 indistinct, darker on the costa ; first near base ; second median, ontcurved round 

 the large dark cell-spot ; postmedian slightly angled on veins 6 and 4, submarginal 

 formed of brownish lunules ; an interrupted dark marginal line ; fringe concolorons. 



Hindtcings : with sinuous antemediau, postmedian and incomplete submargiual 

 lines. 



Underside dull grey. Head, thorax, and abdomen whitish, like wings. 



Expanse of wings : 24 mm. 



One S, one ?, from Eon Island, July L'^OT (Doherty). 



Forewings without fovea ; veins T, 8, 9, stalked ; 10 and 11 coincident. 



Subfamily SELIDOSEMINAE. 



103. Casbia anomalata sp. nov. 



? . Forewings : reddish fuscous, speckled with darker ; the lines blackish 

 fuscous, indistinct towards costa ; first from one-hftli of costa to one-fourth of 

 inner margin, curved, preceded on inner margin by an orange-red blotch ; second 

 (median) from middle of inner margin, parallel to first as far as median vein, then 

 curved outwards towards middle of costa ; third from three-fourths of inner margin, 

 sinuous, approaching second at costa ; fourth (submarginal) lilack and wiived, 

 preceded by orange-red patches almost touching third line : a row of black marginal 

 spots ; fringe concolorons ; cell-spot ocelloid, dark with pale centre. 



Hindwings : like forewings, but with a single dark antemediau line, and the 

 other markings more indistinct. 



Underside rufous-ochreuus with a broad blackish marginal fascia. Head, 

 thorax, and abdomen concolorons ; palpi dark fuscous. 



Expanse of wings : 24 mm. 



One ? from Woodlark Island, April IS'JT (Bleek). 



Along with this ¥ is a J captured at the same time and place, bat not in such 

 good condition, which probably belongs to the same species ; inasmuch, however, 

 as it differs structurally from the ? , I describe it separately. The forewings are 

 longer and narrower ; the cell is ij^uite half the length of the wing, whereas in 

 the ? it is scarcely half as long ; in the 6 therefore the ocelloid cell-spot is near 

 to the third line, while in the ? it is just beyond the second ; vein 2 rises at 

 one-third from the base, instead of as in the ¥ at one-half, and there is no fovea. 

 The markings, as far as they can be made out, are similar to those of the ? . The 

 hind-tiliiae are not thickened, and have two pairs of slender spurs, much farther 

 apart from each other than in the ? ; in both the palpi are porrect and longer than 

 usual in the genns ; but while in the ? they are dark fuscous and closely scaled, 

 in the S they are pale reddish ochreous, and much longer, the second joint being
