Vl\ 



line runs from the costa a little before the 

 apex to the outer angle. The (-econdaries 

 are dark brown with the costa and the outer 

 margin lioarv gray. They are traversed b_v 

 a dark median and a curved and zigzag fine 

 liuibal line, which is defined outwardly by 

 a fine paler line. There are some obscure 

 submarginal brown markings. On the 

 under side, the wings are pale gray witli 

 the outer mo.rgins clouded with fuscous. 

 The spots and markings of the upper side 

 reappear upon the lower side indistinctly. 

 $ . The female is very like the male, and 

 has the costa of the primaries distinctly 

 marked with a number of whitish spots, of 

 which the one nearest the apex is the most 

 distinct. Expanse, J and ?, 42 mm. 



103. E. complex, sp. nov. $. Closely 

 allied to the foregoing species, but having 

 the transverse lines differently arranged. 

 The under side of the body and the legs are 

 paler than in the preceding species, inclin- 

 ing to whitish. The upper side of the 

 primaries and secondaries are lilacine-brown. 

 The primaries have a very fine curved and 

 crenulate sub-basal line succeeded beyond 

 the cell by a broad dift'use brown line, which 

 is retracted on the costa. This is followed by 

 a very fine and distinct crenulate limbal line. 

 Both the median and limbal lines of the 

 primaries are continued across the secon- 

 daries. From a point a little before the 

 apex in the primaries, a broad and obscurely 

 defined reddish-brown band runs to the 

 outer angle. Beyond this, just below the 

 apex is a fine curved line running from the 

 apex to the termination of vein four. The 

 outer margin of the secondaries is clouded 

 with dark brown. On the under side, the 

 wings are paler than on the upper side, with 

 the inner margins pale cinereous, and the 

 outer margin of the primaries clouded with 

 dark brown. The median and limbal lines 

 of the upper side reappear, but are very fine 

 and sharply defined. At the end of the cell 

 in the primaries is a very minute black dot 

 and at the end of the cell of the secondaries 

 two similar dots. 



? . The female closely resembles the 

 male. Expanse, g and $.38-40 mm. 



104. E. simplex, sp. nov. J. Head, 

 collar, and thorax obscure chestnnt-l)ri>wn. 

 Upper side of abdomen jialer fuscous. 

 Lower side of abdomen pale fuscous-brown ; 

 legs darker brown ; tarsi while, ringed with 

 brown. On the upper side the primaries 

 and secondaries are obscure chestnut-brown 

 laved with pale cinereous on the outer mar- 

 gin of the primaries and on the base of the 

 .secondaries. There ai-e two small white 

 spots at the end of the cell in the primaries. 

 In some specimens these are obsolete. The 

 primaries and the secondaries are crossed 

 .1 little beyond the middle by a dark limbal 

 line, retracted at the costa of the primaries 

 and defined outwardly by a paler cinereous 

 line. In addition, the primaries are trav- 

 ersed by a fine zigzag sub-basal line and 

 by a similarly fine median line, which is 

 very abruptly retracted before the costa. 

 There are in addition some obscure mar- 

 ginal lines and markings. The fringes are 

 darker than the adjacent portions of the 

 wing in the primaries. On the under side, 

 the wings are dark fuscous with the costa 

 of the primaries tinged with luteous and 

 the inner margin of the primaries and the 

 secondaries pale gray. The primaries are 

 marked before the apex by some blackish 

 cloudings. The transverse lines of the 

 primaries and the secondaries reappear 

 obscurely upon the lower side. 



$. The female does not materially differ 

 from the male, save that most specimens 

 are lighter in color, inclining to ochra- 

 ceous on the upper side, and having the 

 lower side of the wings somewhat profusely 

 irrorated with dark scales. Expanse, $ and 

 $ , 3S mm.

105. G. a/>tcala,sp. nov. J. The head, 



collar, thorax, and upper side of abdomen 



are dark chestnut-brown. The lower side 



of the thorax and abdomen are a trifle paler,
