EURHIPIDAE. 

 Targallodes, gen. nov. 



Allied to the genus Tvirgalla, Walk., and 

 intermediate between it and Marasmalus, 

 Grote. Antennae simple Palpi com- 

 pressed, erect, the third joint slender, naked, 

 or very slightly clothed with scales; as long 

 as the" second joint; first and second joints 

 heavily clothed with scales. The primaries 

 are relatively narrow, subtriangnlar, the costa 

 nearly straight, the outer margin slightly 

 rounded, the innerniargin curved at the base, 

 straight for one-third of its length from the 

 base°to the outer angle. The outer margin 

 is somewhat deeply excavated at the outer 

 angle. The secondaries are subovate. The 

 neuration is given in the accompanying cut. 

 The legs are relatively short and armed on 

 the tibiae with well developed terminal spurs. 

 The abdomen is robust. Type Targallodes 

 iiifnla, Holland. 



"Neuration of Targallodes rufula, Hell. 5, i"- 



iS. T. rnfula, sp. nov. ?. Palpi pale 

 brown; front whitish; upper side of head 

 pale gray ; upper side of thorax and abdomen 

 pale rufous; under side of thorax and abdo- 

 men together with the legs whitish. The 

 tarsi are ringed with pale rufous. The prim- 

 aries on the upper side are pale ferruginous 



with a lilacine lustre in certain lights. They 

 are traversed bv very obscure darker sub- 

 basal, median, and limbal lines. Before the 

 apex extending from the costa to the end of 

 the second median nervuie there is a cmved 

 brownish line margined externally by bright 

 ferruginous. There is a very obscure reni- 

 form spot at the end of the cell. The second- 

 aries are whitish with the costa stramineous, 

 shining, and the outer margins marketl with 

 obscure rusty spots. In certain lights the 

 wings reflect an iridescent lustre. On the 

 under side the primaries are rufous with the 

 costa and the inner margin paler, traversed 

 before the apex by geminate incomplete lim- 

 bal and submarginal lines. The secondaries 

 on the under side are uniformly whitish witli 

 the costa slightly tinged with ochraceous. 

 BTipanse, 33 mm. 



There is an unnamed specimen of this in- 

 sect in the British Museum. 



EuTELiA, Hiibn. 



19. B. (.^) strigulit. sp. nov. J. The 

 bodv is cinereous. The primaries are gray, 

 shaded about the middle with pale olive-green 

 and traversed by a number of darker lines of 

 dark olive-brown as follows : a transverse 

 basal line, an irregularly angulated and gem- 

 inate sub-basal line, an exceedingly irregular 

 transverse median line, which makes two 

 loops at the end of the cell, in the innermost 

 of which loops is a gray reniform spot pupiled 

 with a black point. Beyond this line is an 

 irregularlv curved and geminate transverse 

 limbal line, which is succeeded near the apex 

 bva zigzag and irregularly curved submar- 

 g,ln;il line. There is a very faint dark mar- 

 ginal line. The fringes are concolorous, 

 obscurely checkered with darker brown. 

 The secondaries on the upper side are fuscous 

 with some obscure dark lines at the anal 

 angle, between which there are paler lines. 

 On the under side the primaries are fuscous 

 with the costa margined with rufous at the 

 base. There is a pale discal spot at the end
