clearer colouring, and the rather larger size. In form of mark- 

 ings it recalls Phox. (?) obtusana, Hw. 



Larva light green (undescribed) ; feeds in spun-up shoots of 

 Correct speciosa (Rutacece) in September ; the imago emerged in 

 October. 



One specimen bred as above from a larva found near Parra- 

 matta, New South Wales ; a second taken near the same place 

 in August. 



2. Pal. infectana, n. sp. 



$ . 4^-"-4f ". Head and thorax brownish-ochreous. ( Palpi 

 ochreous- white, second joint with a dark fuscous spot, tuft dark 

 fuscous towards extremity. Antennae dark fuscous. Abdomen 

 dark grey, extremity whitish. Legs whitish, anterior and 

 middle tibiae and all tarsi banded with dark fuscous. Forewings 

 narrow, costa moderately arched, apex strongly produced, hind 

 margin rounded beneath; dull dark ferruginous, becoming 

 greyer towards inner margin, and mixed with dark fuscous ; 

 costa obliquely strigulated throughout with ashy- whitish ; an- 

 ill-defined whitish longitudinal streak starting from base beneath 

 costa, bent downwards at one-third and ending in an oval silvery- 

 whitish patch on anal angle ; between this streak and inner 

 margin the basal third is suffused with dark fuscous-grey ; cilia 

 grey. Hindwings light fuscous grey ; cilia grey with a pale 

 line at base. 



Distinguished by the whitish colour being confined to a sinuate 

 longitudinal streak from base to anal angle, so that the whole 

 costa is dark ferruginous ; and also by the dull rather confused 

 colouring, and small size. 



Two specimens taken in low scrub near Sydney in August and 

 April, and two others at Mittagong (2000 feet) in March.
