compressed beneath 12, tlins forming a secondary cell nearly three times as large 

 as the abortively small proper cell, so as to almost form the costa itself. Secondary, 

 vein 5 from the upper angle of the cell, and 7 stalked, 8 free from base, no bar 

 between it and T. Cell extremely short and small. Frenulum present. 

 Type : N. unistrigata spec. nov. 



52. Nervicompressa unistrigata spec. nov. (PI. IV. f. 5). 



<?. Head and thorax darkish brown, palpi blackish deflexed. 



Primary ochre-brown, with a broad dark grey-brown nearly straight strife, 

 across the wing, beyond the centre, from costa to inner margin. Secondary ochre- 

 yellow with an oblique dark stripe right across the wing rather in front of the 

 centre. 



Underside : in the secondary the stripe is more marked than above, and be)-ond 

 it is a waved slightly reddish indistinct stripe, beyond which the colour is paler. 



? . Similar to the male, but paler in all respects. 



Expanse : cJ 43, ? 39 mm.

53. Nervicompressa lunulata spec. nov. (PI. IV. f. 4). 



cJ. Head and thorax dark (somewhat reddish) brown, abdomen bright orange- 

 brown. 



Primary dark (somewhat reddish) brown for the basal two-thirds, with a 

 curved luuulated margin, beyond which the colour is ochreous, a transverse dark 

 band near the centre of the wing ; in the posterior ochreous area is a pale lunulated 

 broad greyish transverse stripe with a dark dot on the veins at each lunnle, a 

 dark red-brown patch just below the apex on the posterior margin, fringes dark at 

 apex, paler near the anal angle. Secondary slightly reddish browu for the basal 

 two-thirds, beyond which the colour is ochreous. A dark brown transverse stripe 

 in the middle of the brown area; this area with a dark lunulated margin, next 

 which is a luuulated band of pale ochreous, darkly dotted at each lunule, paler 

 than the outer margin ; fringes reddish browu. 



Underside: Primary reddish ochreous, a dark dot at the end of the cell, 

 with all the pattern showing more or less strongly through. Secondary orange- 

 coloured, the dark curved stripe much more distinct and diifused as to its outer 

 margin ; three dark reddish brown strongly lunulated transverse stripes, beyond 

 which the ground colour is irrorated with dark scales. 



?. Primary pale brownish grey, with two obscure darker transverse bands, 

 beyond which is a row of dark dots, with a darker subapical area. Secondary 

 ochreous with two waved darker transverse stripes, between which is a short row 

 of dark spotted shading ; the ochreous area terminates in a dark lunular edging, 

 beyond which the posterior margin is pale purplish brown. 



Underside : primary as the ?>iale ; secondary with the median area very broadly 

 puriilish, with yelluwish centre, beyond which is a luuular purple stripe, edged 

 broadly with orange, posterior area pale puriilish brown — the underside of the 

 abdomen is tinged with crimson. 



Expanse : (J 45, ? 42 mm.
