AXIORATA LEUCOZONA, 11. Sp. 



f^^. 15-17 mm. Head brovvnish-ochreous, mixed with whitish.

 middle pairs mixed with fuscous. Fore wings elongate, posteriorly 

 dilated, costa gently arched, apex rounded, termen scarcely 

 rounded, slightly oblique; white, faintly ochreous-tinged, markings 

 dark fuscous; a triangular spot at base of costa; a broad central 

 transverse fascia, anterior edge nearly straight or slightly concave, 

 posterior edge straight, wavy; a broad terminal fascia, broadest

H I M E R 1 s, n.g. 



Face flat. Palpi moderate, recurved, not reaching vertex, with 

 appressed scales ; terminal joint well developed, stout, obtuse. 

 Antenna? in male simple, minutely ciliated (j). Thorax and 

 abdomen not crested. Posterior tibiae with two pairs of spurs. 

 Forewings with 7, 8, 9, 10 stalked, no areole. Hindwings with 

 3, 4 connate, 5 from middle of discocellulars not curved towards 

 4 at base, 6, 7 connate, 8 connected with cell near base. 



In structure this approaches Pachylepis, Feld., as described in 

 Hamson's ' Moths of India,' to which the type does not appear 

 related. Probably the structure of vein 5 of hindwing will prove 

 a sufficient distinction.
