Wings with surface closeh^ covered with dark brown hairs ; 

 the upper surface without any covering of scales except a very 

 few at the base and the small ones forming the white spots. 

 Under side of wing closely covered with dark brown imbricating 

 small scales, extending almost to the margin. Conspicuous though 

 small spots, composed of elongate snow-white scales, appear to be 

 placed normally at the tips of nearly all the veins, but in the 

 three examples present there is a little variability in their exact 

 position. In the type they occur as follows : at a little distance 

 before tip of ist longitudinal vein ; shortly before the ist ending 

 of the 2nd vein ; at tips of the other two endings ; at tips of 3rd 

 vein, both branches of 4th, the 5th and 7th. A single white hair 

 still remaining shows another spot to be present on the 7th vein 

 some little distance before its tip. Tip of 6th vein without a spot. 

 In one example there is a white spot behind the tip of the 6th 

 vein, in another specimen the spot is at the vein tip. Venation 

 Psychoda-Vike. 



Described from three specimens, females, from Peradeniya, 

 taken by Mr. E. E. Green, ix- and x-1910. 



Type in Indian Museum. 



N.B. — The white shoulder-spots immediately distinguish this 

 from all other species. 



Parabrunettia 9-notata, mihi, sp. nov. 



9 . Orissa Coast. Long. i| mm. 



Body covered with rich dark brown bristly hair on thorax, 

 blackish brown on abdomen, with a few white hairs at the abdo- 

 men tip. 



Antennal scape with dark elongate scales ; flagellum with 

 pear-shaped joints and brown verticillate hairs, which appear 

 greyish when viewed in certain directions. Distinct long, curved 

 chaetae present. 



Legs blackish ; femora with a considerable number of greyish, 

 elongate, depressed scales ; tibiae and metatarsi with whitish grey 

 scales at tips ; a few scales of a similar nature are also present at 

 the tips of the tarsi. 



Wings with the whole surface as well as the \'eins covered 

 with blackish hair, which is much thicker and denser on the 

 costa, where it is distinctly prominent and its colour distinctly 

 black. Around the remainder of the border of the wing it is dark 

 brown. A very conspicuous spot at the extreme edge of the wing- 

 border, at the tips of every vein, composed of small white scale- 

 like hairs. A number of white erect hairs on most of the veins in 

 the basal half of the wing Anterior branch of 2nd longitudinal 

 vein forks opposite the fork of the 4th vein. The pubescence pre- 

 vents a clear view of the base of the wings, but apparently the 

 2nd longitudinal vein forks distad of the base of the 3rd vein.
