triangular, costa sinuate, posteriorly moderately arched, apex 

 rounded, hindmargin obliquely rounded continuously with inner 

 margin; fuscous, darker towards base of costa; two cloudy 

 whitish spots obliquely placed in disc at J, and an irregular short 

 longitudinal whitish mark in middle of disc ; two nearly straight 

 transverse series of subtriangular subconfluent whitish spots, 

 not reaching either margin, first at |, second at g : cilia rather 

 dark fuscous. Hindwings pale ochreous-fuscous, becoming more 

 yellowish-ochreous towards base ; cilia rather dark fuscous. 



Mount Lofty, South Australia ; one specimen received from 

 Mr. E. Guest.

(J. 41-55mm. Head and thorax dark ochreous-fuscous. Antennal 

 pectinations 1. Fore wings ochreous-fuscous ; two or three small 

 scattered fuscous sometimes pale-centred spots in disc, and two 

 posterior series of similar spots ; a hindmarginal series of small 

 fuscous spots : cilia ochreous or fuscous. Hindwings light ochre- 

 ous-fuscous, sometimes with two posterior series of small fuscous 

 spots. 



Tasmania ; three specimens (Brit. Mus. Coll.). The species 

 has shorter antennal pectinations than in any other Australian 

 form, excepting the following. There can be no doubt that 

 Walker's two descriptions quoted above are actually drawn from 

 the same specimens, though he appears in his catalogue to place 

 them as a distinct species.

(J. 56 mm. Head and thorax ochreous-brown. Antennae light 

 ferruginous, shortly dentate. Abdomen fuscous, apex deep ochreous. 

 Forewings elongate-oblong, posteriorly hardly dilated, costa gently 

 arched, apex obtuse, hindmargin obliquely rounded continuously 

 with inner margin ; deep yellow-ochreous, irregularly irrorated 

 with ochreous-brown and dark fuscous ; the absence of irroration
