Subfamily STERRHINAE. 



6. Craspedia impunctulata sp. nov. 



Forewings : white, with a few black speckles; the Hues uchreons ; first, 

 iadistinct, at oue-third, curved ontwards towards the cell-spot ; outer line at three- 

 fourths, bluntly dentate ; median halfway between the two, curved parallel to first 

 line-; subterminal and submarginal very indistinct except towards inner margin ; 

 cell-spot small, but distinct, black ; uo trace of marginal dots or line ; fringe 

 ochreous. 



Hindwings : without first line. 



Underside wholly white, without markings ; costa of forewings narrowly 

 ochreous. Face, vertex, and palpi dark brown ; thorax and abdomen white. 



Expanse of wings : 35 mm. 



1 (J from Sierra Leone, 1898 (Capt. Stevens). 



Nearest to C. stibperlaria Warr., but larger ; characterised by the entire 

 absence of marginal markings. 



7. Craspedia ocellicincta sp. nov. 



Forewings: chalk-white, slightly black-speckled, tinged in parts with olive 

 ochreous ; lines dark grey ; first ill-defined, curved from one-third of costa to one- 

 fourth of inner margin ; median from two-thirds of costa to middle of inner margin, 

 fine, lunulate-dentate, outcurved above ; outer line at four-fifths, dentate-lunulate, 

 insinuate beyond cell and on submedian fold ; submarginal line waved, indistinct, 

 between two darker shades, the inner of which forms dark greenish fuscous blotches 

 beyond the sinuses of the outer line ; the median line is followed by a greenish 

 shade ; cell-spot black, placed in an olive ochreous or olive brownish ring. 



Hindwings : similar, without first line ; the median line forming a deep sinus 

 inside the black triangular cell-spot. 



Underside ochreous-white, speckled in the forewings with green towards base ; 

 the cell-spots and outer line expressed. Face and palpi black-brown ; vertex, 

 thorax, and abdomen white. 



Expanse of wings : 26 mm. 



1 (? from Athi-ya-Mawe, British East Africa, April 1899 (Legros). 



Allied to what I believe to be nemorivagata Wlngrn, and possibly the other 

 sex of that species. 



The single example is too much worn for the margins and fringes to be made 

 out ; it is almost certain that in fresh specimens the green and ochreous tints are 

 more developed. 



8. Craspedia umbratilinea sp. nov. 



Forewings : dull rufous grey, with darker dusting ; the lines obscure, olive- 

 rufous, all more or less geminate, or followed by deeper shading ; first very indistinct 

 at one-fourth ; median from two-thirds of costa, oblique and slightly undulating, to 

 middle of inner margin ; outer line at five-sixths, obscurely luuulate-dentate, sinuate 

 inwards beyond cell and on submedian fold, closely followed by a thickened olive 

 shade ; submarginal line hardly expressed ; cell-spot and marginal spots small, 

 blackish ; fringe concolorous.
