542 DESCRIPTIONS OF AUSTEALIAK MICEO-LEPIDOPTERl, 



obliquely before it on fold, and a third in disc beyond middle ; a 

 short inwardly oblique cloudy dark fuscous-grey streak from costa 

 at I, emitting an irregular outwards-curved line to inner margin 

 before anal angle ; apex dark fuscous-grey ; cilia whitish, at 

 and above apex suffused with grey, on basal half irregularly 

 mixed with dark fuscous-grey. Hindwings grey ; cilia white, 

 with a dark-grey line near base. 



Eeadily known by the cloudy costal and dorsal spots, and the 

 discal dots being reduced to three. It is questionable whether 

 this species is not more directly allied to E. variegata, but it is 

 apparently a generalised type with diverse affinity. 



One specimen taken at AVellington, New Zealand, January.
