834 REVISION OF AUSTRALIAN LEPIDOPTERA, II., 



obliquely rounded; pale brownish mixed with whitish; markings 

 blackish; a fine outwardly-curved transverse line near base, 

 followed by a dark suffusion containing two or three similar 

 lines more or less developed; two fine parallel outwardly-curved 

 lines from J costa to f dorsum; these are followed by a vague 

 pale suffusion; a discal dot at end of cell; two very tine parallel 

 wavy lines from J costa to before tornus, aVjove mid-disc the 

 anterior of these lines is thickened to form a second discal dot; 

 a small blackish suffusion at tornus surmounted by some dark 

 brown scales; a series of black pale-edged dots forming a sub- 

 terminal line; a series of very indistinct terminal dots; cilia pale 

 brown. Hindwings with termen rounded; pale brownish-fuscous; 

 cilia concolorous. 



Type in Coll. Turner. 



N.Q. : Mulgrave River near Cairns; one specimen. 



OSICA GLAUCA. 



Osica turneri, Bak., (Nov. Zool. 1904, p. 374, pl.vi. f.31) exactly 

 corresponds to some Australian examples of this rather variable 

 species, and Osica funerea, Bak., {op. cit. p. 374) is doubtless 

 another synonym. This species, therefore, ranges as far as New 

 Guinea. 



Cascera muscosa. 



N.Q. : Kuranda, in March (Dodd). One $ with antennal 

 pectinations 2|, apical 4 simple. This example corresponds 

 exactly with Cascera hella, Bak.. {op. cit. p. 3 7 4) from New 

 Guinea. 



Unrecognised species. 



Stauropis (?) eiiryscia, Low., Trans. Roy. Soc. S. Austr. 1903, 

 p. 28. N.S.W. : Broken Hill. 



Fam. SYNTOMID^. 



Tongue usually well-developed. Tibi^ with the spurs short. 

 Forewings with P absent, 5 approximated to 4 at origin, 7, 8, 9 

 stalked. Hindwings small; l'"* often absent, P absent, 8 absent
