streak, and posteriorly with subapical dark patch ; two small sometimes 

 confluent bluish-silvery spots on lower part of termen, partially edged 

 with black ; a silvery dot on termen beneath apex : cilia whitish bronzy, 

 with a blackish median line indented with white beneath apex, outer 

 half more whitish, with traces of a blackish apical hook. Hindwing 

 dark fuscous ; cilia whitish-fuscous, with a suiiused fuscous subbasal 

 shade. 



Diyatalawa and Puttalam, Ceylon, in July, August, and November (Fetcher, 

 Pole) ; three specimens. 



Glypliipteryx rhodanis, n. sp. 



9. 14-16 mm. Head, antennae, and thorax bronzy-fuscous. Palpi dark 

 fuscous, with base, three rings, and sides of apex white. Abdomen dark 

 fuscous. Forewings elongate, narrow at base, posteriorly dilated, costa slightly 

 arched, apex obtuse, termen sinuate, rather strongly oblique ; 7 and 8 separate ; 

 bronzy-fuscous, posterior half ochreous-bronze ; markings prismatic golden- 

 metallic, becoming white on costa, finely edged with blackish ; six short 

 oblique streaks from costa, first in middle, second longest, reaching half 

 across wing ; an upward-oblique streak from fold beneath apex of first 

 costal ; erect streaks from before and beyond tornus, not reaching half 

 across wing ; in a line between first of these and fourth costal are two small 

 spots in disc, followed by a small spot of blackish suffusion ; a small spot 

 on subapical sinuation ; a suffused blackish apical spot : cilia bronzy-whitish 

 with a blackish median line indented on subapical sinuation, and with a 

 blackish apical hook. Hindwings dark fuscous ; cilia light ochreous, suffused 

 with fuscous towards base. 



Khasis, in May ; two specimens. 



Gly phipteryx canachoden, n. sp. 



^. 14 mm. Head blackish-bronze. Palpi white, with four rings and anter- 

 ior edge towards apex black. Antennae whitish ringed with blackish. Thorax 

 shining bronze. Abdomen grey, anal tuft grey-whitish. Forewings elongate, 

 rather narrow at base, posteriorly dilated, costa slightly arched, apex obtuse, 

 termen slightly rounded, oblique ; 7 and 8 separate ; golden-bronze ; markings 

 prismatic golden-metallic, on costa whitish ; a streak on fold from near base to |; 

 six streaks from costa, first at 5, running to dorsum beyond middle, second and 

 third not reaching middle of wing, fourth slightly curved, running to dorsum 

 before tornus, fifth reaching half across wing, sixth running almost along termen 

 to tornus ; a black mark running from middle of disc obliquely downwards to 

 beyond fourth streak, by which it is interrupted, bearing a small round golden- 

 metallic spot near its anterior extremity : cilia whitish-grey, basal thii-d golden- 

 bronze, with a dark fuscous apical hook. Hindwings grey, lighter towards base; ii 

 cilia pale greyish-ochreous. 



< Nilgiris, 3,500 feet, in May (Andrewes) ; one specimen. This belongs to the 

 group in which there is no subapical indentation in the median line of cilia, and 

 is nearly related to several Australian species.
