Newratimi: cell rather longer than half the wings. I'orewings, first median at 

 four-fifths, second close before end of cell, third from the end; radials as usual, both 

 curved downwards towards the hindmargin ; first and second subcostals on long 

 common stem rising about half-way ; third, fourth, and fifth on a stem rising shortly 

 before upper end of cell, the second united by a bar with the stem of the third and 

 fourth. Hindwings, costal shortly approximated to subcostal close to base ; two 

 subcostals close together from end of cell ; no radial ; medians as in forewings. 



Type : Trichostichiu bijinita Wlk. (Sijrtodes ?).

 Calletaera gen. nov. 



Fweioings : elongate triangular ; costa straight or slightly indented ; apex 

 prominent, but blunt : hindmargin obliquely curved. 



Hindtvlngs : with hindmargin crenulate, and a slight tootli in the middle. 



Palpi short, pon-ect ; antennae in cJ shortly but distinctly pectinated ; forewings

Calletaera grisea s]). nov. 



Foreitrings : dull stone-colour, dusted with black atoms, and more or less 

 suffused with olive-grey; this suffusion is deepest in the basal region, along the 

 costa, and towards the anal angle ; lines very indistinct, starting from small dark 

 costal spots ; the first dull olive, curved outwardly ; the exterior forming an angle 

 below the subcostal, then running obliquely basewards, denoted only by blackish dots 

 on the veins ; submarginal line jmle, irregularly dentate, rather near the hindmargin ; 

 fiiuge concolorous, dotted with black towards the apex, and with a fine black basal 

 line, which swells out into sjx)ts between the veins. 



Hindwings : the same, but less suffused, so that the markings are clearer ; the 

 exterior line more distinctly formed of dark teeth ; this is followed, and the sub- 

 terminal line distinctly preceded, by a dull olive-grey shade, the two shades forming 

 together a kind of dark broad fascia.
