attended to. Compare on the other hand the genera of Pyralididce, 

 (Endutricha, for example,) where the basal fork tends to disappear 

 not by the obsolescence of one branch, but by the shortening of 

 the furcation. 



17. Sic. hydreutis, n. sp. 



£. 29 mm. Head, palpi, and antennae deep ochreous ; palpi 

 moderate, ascending, terminal joint moderately long. Thorax 

 ochreous mixed with reddish-brown. Abdomen and legs pale 

 ochreous, anterior legs darker above. Forewings rather elongate- 

 triangular, costa almost straight, apex rounded-rectangular, hind- 

 margin rather obliquely rounded ; veins 8 and 9 separate ; deep 

 yellow-ochreous, irregularly reticulated with ferruginous-brown ; 

 an irregular ferruginous-brown streak along costa from base almost 

 to apex ; the reticulations coalesce to form a straight transverse 

 line at g, dilated considerably towards costa, an irregular streak from 

 beyond middle of costa, where it forms a triangular spot, towards 

 anal angle, where it is shortly furcate, and an irregular streak 

 from I ofjCOsta to middle of hindmargin : cilia ochreous, basal half 

 tinged with ferruginous-brown. Hindwings moderate, hindmargin 

 rounded ; colour, strigulation, and cilia as in forewings ; the 

 strigulre coalesce to form several tolerably distinct irregular lines ; 

 a straight one near base ; two from costa before middle, suffused 

 together towards costa, first running to § of inner margin, second 

 to below middle of hindmargin ; a straight irregular streak from 

 costa before apex to hindmargin before middle.
