294 ON QUEENSLAND AND OTHER AUSTRALIAN LEPIDOPTERA, 



this at J from costa a minute brown discal spot: a second milky 

 line from | costa to j inner margin : a dentate hindmarginal line 

 deep purple-red : cilia grey, base purple-red. Hindwings as fore- 

 wings, with first line wanting, discal spot very minute, second 

 line J costa to § inner margin j hindmarginal line a series of 

 purple-red spots ; cilia as forewings. 



I took a specimen at Duaringa station, beaten out of a wattle 

 bush in May. I found Mr. Barnard had a pair in his collection 

 unnamed. I am pleased to dedicate the species to Mrs. Barnard, 

 who is so greatly aiding entomological science by her illustrations 

 of life-history, larvae, imago and food plant. I have this season 

 obtained one specimen at Brisbane.

 white, posteriorly reddish-tinged. Palpi red, terminal joint

 ochreous-green lines and parallel with hindmargin are arranged in 

 two groups ; the first line is from i costa to -I inner margin, the 

 second line is immediately beyond, just beyond which again and 

 almost touching at J from costa is an indistinct smoke-colour 

 discal spot ; the second group begins with the 3rd line, which runs 

 from § costa to § inner margin, immediately beyond which is the 

 4th line, and again the 5th line, contiguous but not touching : 

 cilia ochreous tinged with red. Hindwings with colour, the two 

 groups of lines and cilia as in forewings.
