694 REVISION OF AUSTRALIAN LEPIDOPTERA, 



Newcastle, New South Wales ; two specimens (Australian 

 Museum). Probably also occurs as an exotic, but recorded 

 localities doubtful. Cramer's figure, if really this insect, is 

 atrocious ; however, Feisthamel's leaves no doubt. 



3. Calamidia, Butl. 



Tongue well developed. Antennae in <J filiform, moderately 

 ciliated, with scattered much longer cilia. Palpi moderate or very 

 long, ascending, with appressed scales, terminal joint rather short, 

 cylindrical, or very long, subclavate. Thorax somewhat hairy 

 beneath ; abdomen clothed with long hairs above. Forewings 

 with vein 2 from middle of cell, 5 absent, 6 from point with or 

 out of 9 near base, 7 and 8 out of 9, 10 connected with 9 by a bar. 

 Hindwings with veins 3 and 4 from a point, 5 absent, 6 and 7 

 approximated at base, 8 from before middle of cell. 



Jt is questionable whether the two following are not sexes of 

 the same species, but as T have seen very few specimens, I have 

 no authority for uniting them in face of the great difference in 

 palpi and colouring. 



5. Gal. salpinctis, n.sp. 



<£. 41 mm. Head, palpi, antennae, and thorax pale brownish- 

 ochreous ; palpi very long, slender, second joint long, terminal 

 joint rather longer than second, subclavate, bent forward. 

 Abdomen ochreous-yellow. Legs whitish-ochreous, anterior femora 

 dark fuscous above. Forewings elongate, narrow at base, 

 gradually dilated, costa strongly arched, apex obtuse, hindmargin 

 obliquely rounded ; whitish-ochreous, suffused with light fuscous 

 except on an elongate-oval patch extending above inner margin 

 from base to middle, beyond and beneath which the suffusion is 

 much darker fuscous : cilia whitish-ochreous, fuscous-tinged. 

 Hindwings and cilia ochreous-yellow. 



Victoria ; one specimen (Coll. Lucas). 



6. Cal. hirta, Walk. 



(Lithosia hi?°ta, Walk. Bomb. 510.) 

 <|>. 42-45 mm. Head, palpi, antennae, thorax, and legs whitish ; 

 palpi rather short, terminal joint short, somewhat pointed.
