wings, and by their peculiar facies, which comes closest to that 

 of G. anmdicornls Esb.-Pet. The sexual dimorphism, which is 

 more or less noticeable in all species of this genus, is, in G. 

 aurora (and probably also in G. roseipennis) extremely marked. 



9. Glenoleon roseipennis, n.sp. 



5. Unique. Closely allied to the preceding, but differing from 

 it by its much greater size, duller colouration, very large head, 

 and roseate pterostigma. 



Total length 19, abdomen 10, forewing 33, hindwing 30 mm. 



Head very large, 3-6 mm. wide, dull greyish-brown 



Thorax greyish, touched with brown on sides and on notum. 



Abdomen with alternating, fairly regular bands of orange- 

 brown and blackish, [much faded]. 



Wings much as in G. aurora, more rounded at tips, costa 

 brownish. Sc, Pt, and Rs very little speckled with black; the 

 wing-membrane lightly washed with rose-pink in places. Ptero- 

 stiyma of forewing 1-8 mm., rich orange-pink, surrounded by 

 rose-pink, which extends to tip of wing; of hindwing, 1-3 mm., 

 orange-pink, with less rose-pink beneath it, and very little 

 towards wing-tip. No brown blotch on hindwing. 



Hab. — Winton, Q. A unique $, taken by Mr. R. L. Higgins, 

 in 1912. 



Type in Coll. Tillyard. 



Tribe Distoleontlni. 

 In forewing, Cu, bends sharply away from Cuj -f M., Rs arises 

 at a level distal from that of the cubital fork (in Gymnocnemia, 

 exactly above it). 



Genus Gymnocnemia Schneider. 

 10. Gymnocnemia maculata, n.sp. (PI. iv., fig. 11). 

 Total length 16-5, abdomen 10, forewing 23, hindwing 195 mm. 

 Head: eyes olive-grey; epicranium dull yellowish-brown, 

 with a fine iZ-'mark in black on the occiput; two, black, trans- 

 verse lines run, one on either side of the top of this mark in 

 front; a black, shiny patch between bases of antennae, which are 

 5 mm. long, dark brown, with blackish tips; face yellowish-brown, 

 shiny; mandibles and maxillary palps blackish.
