334 DESCRIPTIONS OF AUSTRALIAN MICRO-LEPIDOPTERA, 



$ 14 mm., $ 19 mm. Head orange-ochreous, face paler. Palpi 

 whitish-orange, basal half of second joint externally and extreme 

 apex of terminal joint dark fuscous. Antennae dark fuscous. 

 Thorax ochreous-orange, anterior margin very narrowly, a small 

 lateral spot, and larger posterior spot dark fuscous. Abdomen 

 whitish-ochreous, anal tuft orange-ochreous. Anterior and middle 

 legs dark fuscous, apex of joints ochreous ; posterior legs whitish- 

 orange-ochreous, tarsal joints greyish towards base. Forewings 

 moderate, costa moderately arched, apex round-pointed, hind- 

 margin oblique, hardly rounded ; dark fuscous, with a slight 

 ochreous tinge in disc posteriorly ; a broad straight white or 

 ochreous-white transverse fascia from \ of costa to \ of inner 

 margin, somewhat contracted on costa ; a white semi-oval spot on 

 costa slightly beyond middle, on costal edge whitish-ochreous, 

 reaching half across wing, a white triangular spot on inner margin 

 before anal angle reaching half across wing, its apex a little 

 beyond that of costal spot ; a larger irregularly quadrilateral white 

 apical spot, on costal edge whitish-ochreous, leaving a slender dark 

 fuscous streak along hindmarginal edge, its anterior and lower 

 edges parallel to posterior edges of costal and dorsal spots re- 

 spectively, its lower posterior angle produced into a short tooth ; 

 cilia dark fuscous, beneath anal angle and on costa above apical 

 spot whitish-ochreous. Hindwings fuscous-grey ; cilia fuscous-grey,

Sydney, in November and December ; two specimens amongst 



^ * 22. Allodoxa, Meyr. 



I am now of opinion that this genus ought to be referred to the 

 GlypliipteryyidcB ; I do not possess a male of either of the two 

 species belonging to it, and I anticipate that the antenna? will be 

 found not to be ciliated. The genus nearly approaches Uupselia, 

 and is discordant in this family from the 11-veined forewings. 

 The removal will make Atelosticha the only 11-veined genus of the 

 family, to which it is nevertheless without doubt truly referable. 

 I do not propose therefore to describe the species of Allodoxa here, 

 and it may be struck out.
