208 STUDIES IN AUSTRALIAN MICROLEPIDOPTERA, 



In specimens from Port Darwin and Cape York, the fasciae are 

 broader, and the antennae ochreous. In those from Cairns, the 

 fasciae are narrower and deeper orange, and diminish towards 

 tornus. It is a large and conspicuous insect, very different from 

 its Australian congeners. 



N.A. : Port Darwin, in November and March. — N.Q. : Cape 

 York; Kuranda, near Cairns, in February and May. 



Gen. Callizyga. 



Callizyga Turn., Trans. Roy. Soc. S. Aust., 1894, p. 132. 



Head with closely appressed hair-scales, forming a strong 

 anterior projection between antennae. Palpi rather stout, smooth, 

 erect; second joint reaching to base of antennae; terminal joint f 

 of second, nearly as stout, apex obtusely rounded. Antennae in $ 

 with long ciliations. Posterior tibiae rough-haired above. Fore- 

 wings with 7 and 8 stalked, 8 to termen. Hindwings with cilia 

 very short ; 3 and 4 approximated at origin, 5, 6, and 7 parallel. 



Though not closely related to any genus known to me, I think 

 Callizyga must be placed in this group. The palpi and neuration 

 of forewings are those of Imma. The neuration of the hindwings 

 suggests a closer relationship with the Lactura-grou\). 



Callizyga dispar. 

 Callizyga dispar Turn., Trans. Roy. Soc. S. Aust., 1894, p. 132.

Subfam. Glyphipteryginj;. 

 Epicrcesa thiasarcha. 

 N.Q. : Kuranda, near Cairns, from June to November. 



Epicrcesa ambrosia. 

 N.Q. : Kuranda, near Cairns, from September to November; 

 Townsville. — Q : Burpengary, near Brisbane, in December. 



TORTYRA LIBANOTA
