 speckling ; marginal area distinctly of a darker shade than the rest of the wing ; 

 the submargiual line indicated by blackish hinulate spots edged with pale 

 scales, these scales forming two more decided pale sjiots below veins 2 and 4 ;

 Head and thorax pale greenish ochreons ; abdomen wanting. 



Expanse of wings : 17 mm. 



One ? from 8ao Paulo (type), another from Santos, and a third without e.xact 

 locality. 



Palpi large, rostriform, roughly haired. A very distinct insect. 



94. Tephroclystia perciliata sp. nov. 



Forewings : narrow and elongate, glossy, brownish fuscous ; the markings very 

 obscure ; a narrow curved band, edged with blackish, at one-third, a second

 before each of the bands and also beyond the last band ; marginal area darker, with 

 the waved submarginal line obscure ; fringe brown-grey. 



Ilimhviiigs: with the hiudmargin dark fuscous, the costal area jialer, the 

 markings very distinct on inner margin only. 



Underside glossy cinereous ; cell-spots blackish ; the pale bands of forewings 

 distinct only at costa. Head, thorax, and abdomen cinereous ; abdomen much 

 darkened above with blackish ; face dark brown.

 95. Nelo divisa ab. radiata nov. 



A single cJ differs from the type form of K. divisa Warr. in having a reddish 

 streak along the centre of hindwing, half of it lying within the cell, the other half 

 beyond between vein 4 and the fold ; a smaller, less distinct red spot above the 

 fold beyond the cell, and some red scales before apex above vein 7. The red blotch 

 and spot of forewings are both more extensive than in the type. 



On the underside of hindwings there is a pale whitish, subapical spot beneath 

 the red scales of npperside, and the other red marks are less defined. 



The example was taken between Celica and Sagratillo, Ecuador, in July 1899, 

 at an elevation of 1800 to 800 ft. (Simons).
