to costa before apex ; a dark fuscous-streak beneath cell almost 

 from base to middle ; a sharply defined dark fuscous streak from 

 middle of disc to hindmargin beneath apex ; a slender dark fuscous 

 streak along inner margin from near base to middle of hindmargin, 

 broader on anal angle and attenuated thence, sharply interrupted 

 by veins ; cilia fuscous, becoming white towards tips, suffused with 

 light rosy, especially above apex ; on undersurf ace rosy tinge much 

 stronger. Hindwings fuscous-grey, rather lighter towards base ; 

 cilia grey, towards apex with tips whitish and base pale rosy. 



This fine species is coloured in admirable imitation of the fibrous 

 bark of the Eucalyptus on which it lives. 



Larva 16-legged, very elongate, cylindrical, slightly tapering 

 towards both ends ; whitish-grey, segmental divisions ochreous- 

 tinged ; dorsal very slender, greyish-fuscous, anteriorly lighter and 

 more greenish ; subdorsal rather broad, rather dark greyish- 

 fuscous ; spiracular slender, irregular, greyish-fuscous ; spiracles 

 grey-whitish, enclosed in a fuscous ring ; spots minute, black ; 

 head very pale reddish-ochreous ; irregularly marked with dark 

 reddish-fuscous spots ; second segment whitish-grey, thinly speckled 

 with dark fuscous ; anal segment speckled with dark fuscous, with 

 subdorsal lines indicated. Feeds on Eucalyptus amygdalina 

 (MyrtaceceJ, concealing itself beneath loose bark, to which it 

 attaches with silk the leaves on which it is feeding. 



I found a single Jarva near Picton, New South Wales, at about 

 1000 feet, in September, and bred the imago in December.
