Probithia gen. uov. 



This genus differs IVoin Ltudaria Wlk., both in outline of wings and in 

 ueuration. In Probithia the hindwings are decidedly angulated, the hindniargin 

 on either side of the angulation being fairly straight ; the neuration in the ^ is 

 (juite normal, the nerves all running straight. In Liuciaria, on the other hand, the 

 hindwings have the hindmargin more or less strongly crenulated, never angulated ; 

 the neuiation of the hindwings in the (?(J is distorted ; the cell is short and broad ; 

 the costal and subcostal are ujicurved near base, and bent downwards beyond the 

 cell ; further, the c? antennae are simjile, while in Probithia they are long and 

 strongly serrated. 



Type : Probithia exdiisa Wlk. (Bithia). 



Walker's name Bithia (xxxv., \>. lo99) is preoccupied; of. Moore, GeyL, iii., 

 1 1. 457. 



Luxiaria fiilvifascia sp. nov. 



Forewings ochreous, suffused, and dusted with dull ful\ous, without anv grey or 

 cinereous admixture, as in fasciosa Moore. The forewings narrower, with blunter 

 apex, and less incurved hindmargin ; traces of a fulvous oblique basal and central 

 line; the whole basal area and co.'ital region is much dusted with fulvous; exterior 

 line more distinct, starting from a triangular costal fulvous spot ; marginal space, 

 except at apex, fulvous, the apex and central fascia remaining paler. liindwincs 

 with an indistinct central, and three distinct submarginal and marginal fulvous 

 bands. Face, antennae, and thorax fulvous. Underside yellowish fuhous, with the 

 basal and marginal areas dark fulvous ; the lines and fasciae dark fulvous and more 

 distinct. Forewings with a clear median line and discal spot. 



Expanse of wings : 36 mm. 



One t? from Sumatra, from the T'elder collection. 



Distinguished from fasciosa Moore by the narrower wings, aliscaice of grey 

 coloration, and rounded hindmargin of hindwing, which .shows no trace of a tooth in 

 the middle. 



8UMI-AMILY ENNOMINAE. 

 Krananda diversa sji. nov. 



Smaller than K. semihyalina Moore, with less irregular hindmargin s, the sulv 

 apical })rojection of the hindwings being, in particular, greatlv reduced. Forewings 

 with the basal area filled u]) with brown, like the marginal; costal half of the inner 

 edge of the marginal border much more oblique, nearly parallel to the direction of 

 the hindmargin. Hindwings with a broad irregularly outlined central band fuscous; 

 marginal border with a large projection in the middle running out into the 

 hvaline .space, whereas in semihyalina it is the hyaline space which there protrudes 

 into the dark border. The line of white submarginal spots is much less distinct in 

 both wings. 



Expanse of wings : ,50 mm. 



One c? from the Felder collection, unnamed, from Sikkim.
