spot on shoulder. Abdomen pale greyish-oclireous, with a row 

 of oblique linear dark fuscous spots on sides. Legs slender, dark 

 fuscous, all tarsi with whitish rings at apex of joints, posterior 

 tibiae stiff -haired. Fore- wings blackish with a few ochreous scales, 

 with inner-margin rather broadly whitish-ochreous from base 

 almost to apex, dilating and becoming deeper ochreous above 

 anal angle ; three small white costal spots ; first beyond middle, 

 very small ; second and third near together before apex, slender, 

 oblique, meeting the dorsal streak ; extreme apex jet black ; cilia 

 whitish round apex, with two black lines, thence dark fuscous- 

 grey. Hind- wings and cilia dark fuscous-grey. 



Easily known by the broadly ochreous inner-margin. This 

 species walks with the forepart raised and the legs moderately 

 displayed, as usual in the genus ; but in repose on tree-trunks, 

 as it is generally found, the body is closely appressed to the bark, 

 and the anterior and middle pairs of legs stretched out laterally 

 and also closely appressed to the surface, a modification adopted 

 for the sake of concealment. The imago is common on the trunk 

 of its food-plant in gardens in Sydney, from November to 

 February. 



Larva attenuated posteriorly, deep green ; head extremely 

 small, black ; it mines an irregular flat, rather small blotch, on 

 upper side of leaves of Phjllanthus Ferdinandi, fEuphorhiaceceJ, 

 in January and February. Pupa inside the mine, in a slight 

 cocoon ; this is certainly the normal habit.
