produced inwards, of which the upper is the larger. The base of the

This species, easily distinguished by its pale color and twin white 

 spots, has broader wings than the other species of the genus. 



Cyrtosia albipunctata n. sp. 



Sable brown, with two white spots near the internal angle. 

 % . Light sable brown. On the middle of the fore wings is a trian- 

 gular chocolate brown space which divides upon the internal angle, 

 while the outer narrower and shorter branch terminates just above the 

 internal angle as in the preceding species, and includes two round un- 

 equal conspicuous spots. The secondaries are nearly coucolorous, but a 

 little lighter than the V-shaped place. Beneath paler brown, the bor- 

 der of the wings paler still, while the fringe is coucolorous with the 

 interior of the wing. 



9 . Considerably larger; the female diiFers in the ground color being 

 darker sable throughout than the % . The V-shaped area is chocolate 

 brown, coucolorous with the secondaries, and the twin spots are nearer 

 alike in size. Beneath of the same color as the upper side of the se- 

 condaries, without the pale margin of the male. Li both sexes the 

 head and body beneath and legs are pale ochreous brown. The fringe 

 is lio-hter than the wino-s, and interlined with sable brown.

CYCLOPTERYX nov. gen. 



The head is very large, with large eyes. Front narrow, nearly square. 

 Antennae thick, with short thick pectinations on the basal half of their 

 length. Palpi ascending, just passing beyond the front. Primaries 

 subtalcate, very broad, being nearly two-thirds as broad as long; very 

 convex towards the rounded apex. Outer margin continuously rounded 

 with the internal edge, being more orbicular than usual. Outer edge 

 convex below the apex. 



Subcostal nervure is remote from the costa. The subcostal and me- 

 dian nervules and their interspaces are shorter than usual.
