 a small blackish-fuscous spot at base of costa ; two straight 

 moderately broad blackish-fuscous transverse fasciae, • rather 

 irregularly edged ; first from i of costa to f of inner margin, 

 somewhat dilated on inner margin so that anterior edge appears 

 concave ; second from f of costa to anal angle, slightly narrower

 marginal line : cilia blackish- grey, becoming lighter grey towards 

 anal angle, darkest at apex, costal cilia ochreous-yellow. Hind-

A handsome species, differing from Z. clerota by the thorax

 third, and the grey cilia of the anal angle. 



Two fine specimens at rest on Eucalyptus trunks near Sydney, 

 January and February ; I have seen several others.
