•284 BI5VISI0N OF AUSTRALIAN TORTRICINA, 



with a few dark fuscous strigulse; an irregular streak of whitish 

 irroration with some dark fuscous scales along dorsum from near 

 base to tornus, upper edge with an oblique acute projection 

 beyond middle, this streak margined above with red or dark 

 brown suffusion : cilia whitisli-yellowish, basal third deep red or 

 red-brown, with blackish spots above apex and beneath tornus. 

 Hindwings dark fuscous, thinly scaled anteriorly, more blackish 

 posteriorly; an orange median band, not reaching margins, inter- 

 rupted in middle, lower half with blackish veins; in ^ with dorsal 

 f(jld clothed with long expansible wliitish hairs; cilia orange, 

 round apex blackish. 



Moluccas: Halmahera (Doherty) -New Guinea: Sariba I., 

 Woodlark I. (Meek) Q.: Cairns (Dodd); in April; five specimens. 

 Occurs also in India and Ceylon. The form described above 

 differs from the Indian form in the well-developed orange band 

 and orange cilia of hindwings, but after close comparison I am 

 compelled to regard it as only a geographical form of the same 

 species; I think, however, it is sufficiently distinct to require a 

 name, and therefore name it var. miltoxantha.
