slightly concave, radial from the middle ; the middle median near end of cell, lower 

 at nearly half : hindwing broad, exterior margin very convex ; cell about half the 

 length ; first subcostal and middle median both near end of cell, lower median about 

 half. Body moderately stout ; palpi obliquely ascending, reaching to near level 

 of eyes, compactly clothed, third joint minute ; antennge bi'oadlj'' bipectinated to 

 one-third the tip, the branches ciliated ; legs smoothly scaled, spurs short.

Testaceous. Wings with numerous short dusky-brown transverse strigse, 

 which are confluent and thickly disposed obliquely across the lower half of forewing 

 and across the subbasal area of the hindwing, and also across the submargin of the 

 latter wing, thus forming a broad oblique fascia across both wings, and a submarginal 

 fascia on the hindwing. Both wings also with a slender blackish transverse discal 

 sinuous line, and a dusky brown cell lunule with pale centre. Tip of palpi, abdomen, 

 and bands on fore and middle legs dusky brown. 



Expanse lA inch. 



Genus CATORIA. 



Male. Forewing comparatively shorter and broader than in C3anatophora, 

 Boarmia and Alcis ; the apex less produced and somewhat rounded ; cell shorter ; 

 costal vein bifid near its end ; first subcostal about one-tenth, joined to middle of the 

 costal branch, second close to end of cell, trifid, fifth from the end of cell ; disco- 

 cellular concave, radial from the middle ; the middle median near end of cell, lower at 

 one-half : hindwing short ; exterior margin almost even, convex ; cell nearly half 

 the length ; first subcostal close to end ; discocellular outwardly-concave ; middle 

 median at one-fifth, lower nearly half. Body short, rather stout ; palpi obliquely 

 projected in front, la.xly clothed beneath, apex conical ; antennae broadly bipectinated 

 to one-third the tip, the branches very long and finely ciliated ; legs long, more 

 slendfr than in above genera, spurs long, slender.

Wliite, numerously flecked with olivesccat-grey scales ; crossed by an ante- 

 medial, medial, postmedial and a submarginal recurved row of blackish points, 

 which are more or less distinct, each row being indistinctly bordered by a contiguous
