522 DESCRIPTIONS OF AUSTRALIAN MICRO-LFPIDOPTERA, 



ochreous, reddish-tinged towards apex, extremities whitish 

 towards anal angle. Hindwings whitish, apex faintly greyish ; 

 cilia whitish. 



A very distinct species, in form resembling T. aerodana; 

 characterised by its small size, and the uniform deep brownish- 

 ochreous or reddish-ochreous forewings ; the hindwings are 

 blackish in male, whitish in female. 



I found the male abundant (and took one female), in the hot 

 sunshine amongst long grass in a very restricted locality on the 

 skirts of virgin forest near Hamilton, New Zealand ; they 

 appeared to fly amongst the tops of the grass, but were difficult 

 to see.
