Tfi>!. Polyptychus erlangeri spec. nov. 



$ ? . Palpus of $ rather ])romiuont, obtuse, second segment elliptic in side- 

 view. Antenna stout and long in c?, reaching beyond end of cell of forewing, 

 very strongly compressed and laterally impressed, not pectinate, in ? simple, 

 slightly triangular in transsection. Spurs short, not spiuose. Abdomen spinulose 

 all over the tergites. No organ of friction. Head and thorax above grey,

Wings, upperside, like thorax. Forewing: a minute subbasal blackish 



brown dot behind cell ; two antemedian lines, suddenly curved costad before M, 

 the first just outside base of M^, the second barely traceable, near base of M', 

 space between them posteriorly filled in with brown (bistre), this colour extending 

 distad to discal lines and gradually fading away towards M and M' ; a very 

 small brown ring as stigma; a double discal line situated nearly as m fulgiiratis 

 (PI. II. f. 14), followed halfway to outer margin by another line, parallel to 

 the first, except behind, where it does not follow the slight curve of the former, 

 but remains nearly straight ; this outer line with pale distal border, beyond 

 which there is posteriorly a faint brown double spot ; distal margin even, convex
