340 PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL MU8EUM. vol.51. 



Larva. — Brown, elliptical; length about one forty-fifth of an inch. 

 Margin distinctly crenulated, but bearing no fringe. Abdominal seg- 

 ments fairly distinct. Dorsum bearmg, within the margin, a row of 

 longish, strong spines, of which four, on the anterior region, extend 

 beyond the margin; also, on the anterior thoracic region, six other 

 spines in two rows ; the extremities of all these spines are dUated into 

 three minute spicules. Vasiform orifice with regularl}^ convex sides 

 and end, the anterior edge concave; operculum moderate, subcircular, 

 lingula obsolete. 



Pupa case. — Intense glossy black, flattish, elliptical; length about 

 one twenty-fifth of an inch. Abdominal segments moderately distinct. 

 Margin crenulated, but less conspicuously than in the larva; there is 

 sometimes a small fragmentary waxy fringe. Dorsum bearmg rows 

 of short fine hairs in place of the strong spines of the larva. 



Adult form unknown. 



Habitat in Austraha, on Banksia integrifolia and on CaUistemon 

 linearis. My specimens were sent from Melbourne by Mr. C. French. 



Larvai^g.5). — Size 0.64 by 0.432 mm.; shape eUiptical; color light 

 brown. The dorsum is armed with a number of spines which are 

 narrow and sHghtly swollen at the distal extremity. On the submar- 

 ginal area of the thorax there is an even row of 10 spines, five on 

 each side, and on the median ridge of the thorax there are two other 

 pairs. The abdomen has a row of six spines down each side of the 

 subdorsal area, the most caudal pair of which is situated close to 

 the vasiform orifice. There is also a pair of prominent spines on the 

 median ridge of the second abdominal segment. The vasiform orifice 

 is situated on a sHght tubercle-Hke projection. It is subcordate in 

 outline (fig. 3) and the operculum almost entirely fills the orifice, 

 obscuring the lingula. Just cephalad of the orifice there is a pair of 

 small setae, one on each side, and on the caudal margin of case there 

 is a pair of long hair-hke spmes. A similar but shorter pair is situ- 

 ated on the latero-caudal margin. The margin of the case is dentate, 

 the teeth being small and situated close together. (Fig. 2.) They 

 are rounded at their tips and irregular in size, some being large and 

 some small.
