Tasmania. I have seen but unfortunately neglected to describe 

 specimens of this species ; the above diagnosis is taken from 

 Guenee's description and figure, of which the former is very 

 incomplete and partially unintelligible ; I have endeavoured to 

 interpret it by the aid of the figure, which is pretty good. It is 

 an easily recognisable species.

Appendix. 



The following species, referred by Guenee and Walker to the 

 immediate neighbourhood of those included in this family are 

 either wrongly so referred, or unidentifiable. 



84. Panagra Jictiliaria, Gn. X. 129. A clay-yellow species, 

 described from ^ only ; I cannot identify it at all, but imagine it 

 is probably wrongly placed here.
