third is much slenderer than the other two. The terminal joint 
of the two-jointed labial palps is slightly longer and slenderer 
than the basal. 
The anterior margin of the first tergite is convex, overlapping 
the back of the head. The posterior margins of all segments are 
straight, both above and below. All segments are distinctly 
broader than long. The two joints of the appendages of the 
eighth abdominal segment are distinct as in U. planatus, the basal 
joint being stout and the distal spiniform. The three joints of the 
appendages of the ninth abdominal segment are more or less com- 
pletely fused as in U. serricollis. 
U. serricollis is a Ceylonese species and its larva appears to 
resemble that of U. indica more closely than does any other larva 
yet described. 
The larvae at present referred to the genus Uletota may be 
distinguished from one another as follows :— 
Appendages of ninth abdominal seg- 
ment two-jointed, not spiniform; 
only one ocellus on each side ..Gernet’s undetermined larva. 
I. ( Appendages of ninth abdominal seg- 
ment spiniform, joints three in num- 
ber when not all fused together ; 
several ocelli on each side . 2, 
Apex of mandibles bidentate; all 
three joints of maxillary palps 
equally distinct B: 
Apex of mandibles tridentate: basal 
joint of maxillary palps very short 
and obscure (ocelli 3 4% 2 on each 
side) A . U. crenatus. 
Ocelli 4 + 2 on each sides gone: 
of ninth abdominal segment distinct- 
ly jointed .. . U. planatus. 
Ocelli 4 + I on each side; “appendages 
of ninth abdominal segment ne 
throughout 4. 
Appendages of eighth eodcmiel seg- 
ment two-jointed (z.e. the termina! 
spine articulated, not fused, to the 
basal part); seventh abdominal seg- 
ment wider than long .. .. U. indica. 
Appendages of eighth abdominal 
segment rigid; seventh abdominal 
segment longer than wide .. U. serricollis.

PUPA. 
The pupa is white in life, and is very like that of U. serricollis, 
The antennae are much shorter than in the pupa of U. serricollis
