lUiidwimj : with base monse-colonr, edged by a straight dark shade, which is 

 followed by a paler one; a curved metallic silvery submargiual line, the up])er part 

 of which from costa to vein is continuous, represented by a rounded spot beyond

Subfamily BRACCINAE. 



Devarodes gen. nov. 



Foreioing : with costa curved ; apex blunt; hindmargin obliipiely curved. 



Hindioing : rounded. 



Antennae of S bipectiuated ; paljii short, porrect, pointed; tongue and 

 frenulum present : a foveal bar visible in forewing. 



Neuration : forewing, cell quite half as long as wing; discocellular concave; 

 first median nervule at two-thirds, second shortly before third ; radials normal ; 

 7, 8, 9 stalked from upper angle of cell, 10 and 11 free; 11 anastomosing with 

 12 and lo with 11 and again with 8, 9: hindwing, costal closely approimated to 

 subcostal near base; the two subcostals from end of cell or stalked. 



Type : I), bubona Druce (Devara). 



Dcvara Wlk., Cat. vii. p. 1660 (1856), was formed for his own previously 

 deseribed s])ecies Clirysauge eri/cinoides, identical with Em.jiIoci<i bifoiicstrata 

 11. S. (185;")) the type of Emplocia, and therefore falls. 



204. Devarodes albibasis spec. nov. 



Closely allied to D. bupaloides Wlk., differing from that species in having the 

 basal areas of both wings white, whereas bupaloidi'K has the inner margin of both 

 wings and costal margin of hindwing black. In the forewing the submedian vein 

 is black across the white area. 



Exjianse of wings : 35 mm.
