NOVITATES ZOOLOOICAE XXVI. 1919. 121 



between 4 and 6, but approaching 4 on the margin ; 11 connecting radius to 12. 

 Abdomen robust, anal tufts strongly developed and spreading laterally in both 

 <J and ?. Legs : hind tibiae smooth, with expan.sible hair-scales at origin of 

 spurs ; hind tarsi with short spines at apex of joints. 



Allied to Pseudaegeria Wlsm., but differing in the structure of the antennae, 

 in FW. 7 running to costa, and in H\V. 3-4 being connate. In general 

 appearance Dolophrosyne balteata most strongly resembles the genus Paran- 

 threne Hb. ( = Sciapteron Stgr.) — Aegeriadae. 



Dolophrosyne balteata, sp. n. 



Antennae blackish. Palpi dark fuscous. Head and Thorax dark purplish 

 fuscous ; face shining. Forewings dark purpUsh fuscous, with some scattered 

 whitish-opalLne scales which occur in most profusion above the tornus ; underside 

 blackish fuscous. Exp. al. 3 17 mm. — $ 22 mm. Hindwings hyaline, with 

 ochreous scales along the veins and toward the costa ; the scaling on the veins 

 becomes blackish toward the margins, which with the cilia are also blackish fuscous; 

 underside as above, but with a strong blackish subcostal line. Abdomen blackish 

 fuscous, the second and fifth segments strongly banded posteriorly with ochreous 

 scales, and with lateral patches of the same colour on the third and fourth seg- 

 ments, sometimes continued narrowly along the posterior edge of the fourth 

 above ; anal tuft ochreous, outwardly blackish fuscous. Legs : anterior and 

 median pairs blackish fuscous, front tarsi ochreous beneath ; posterior pair 

 blackish fuscous, mixed with ochreous in the tufting at the spurs, femora ochreous 

 tarsi banded with whitish ochreous. 



Type : S (350,090) ; ? (350,091). BM. [PT. (7,566, Drnt. Det. 1919), Mus. 

 Rothsch.] 



Hab. Queensland : near Duaringa. Seven specimens from Dr. Lucas, 

 and one in Lord Rothschild's Museum from the Barnard Collection. 



HEMEROPHILIDAE (= GLYPHIPTERYGIDAE). 

 CIBDELOSES, gn. n. 



(<i^S'?Xo? = deceitful ; (Tj)f, 6 — moth). 



Type : Cibdeloses dolopis Drnt. 



Antennae (?) two-thirds, somewhat thickened above by appressed scales 

 (from about one-fourth to three-fourths). Labial Palpi moderate, ascending ; 

 median joint clothed with appressed scales ; terminal joint less than half second, 

 pointed. Maxillary Palpi obsolete. Ocelli (not visible). Head with appressed 

 scales. Thorax smooth. Forewings elongate, narrow at base, costa nearly 

 straight to two-thirds, thence slightly arched, apex sUghtly depressed, obtuse, 

 termen obliquely rounded : neuration 12 veins ; 7-8 stalked, 8 to termen, 9 to 

 apex ; 2 from near end of cell, closely approximate to 3 at base ; 4-5 slightly 

 approximate toward base ; 5-6 parallel ; 1 weak. Hindwings broader than 

 forewings, costa nearly straight, apex slightly depressed, obtuse, termen and 

 dorsum evenly rounded : newation 8 veins ; 2-4 separate, remote ; 6-7 stalked, 

 5 out of their stalk ; media in hne with 4. Abdomen (?) moderate, anal tuft 

 weU-developed. Legs : hind tibiae smooth-scaled. 



A transparent form, aUied to Burlacena Wkr., but much more Aegeria-Uke 

 than that genus.
