transverse markings distinguishable ; it may be the female 

 of this species. 



EUPROCTIS DRUCEI, nom. nov. 

 Euprodis titania, Druce, Ann. Mag. X. H, (7), iii, p. 460 

 (1899), (preocc). 



2 ^, Fergusson Island. 



Titania is pre-occupied in the genus by Butler for a 

 Madagascar Euprodis. 



EUPROCTIS DANA, nov. 



$ . Palpi, antennfe, head, body above and below, and legs brown- 

 ish ochreous, paler and brighter below than above ; fore-wings much 

 the same colour but inwardly suffused with brown, with two in- 

 distinct transverse pale lines beyond the middle rather close together, 

 forming a band which in some examples is darker than the rest of the 

 wing, as in E. cervina., Moore, from Ceylon : hind-wings blackish- 

 brown ; cilia of both wings rather long and bright ochreous. 



Expanse of wings ^ inch. 



6 ^ , Dana, Kashmir, June 1888 {McArthvr). 



Two of the examples have the fore-wings almost clear 

 of the brownish suffusion and the transverse pale lines 

 nearly obsolete, the insect thus looking very like E. 

 chrysopTiseay Walker, from Abyssinia. 



EUPROCTIS LUCIFUGA. 

 Artaxa lucifuga, Lucas, Proc. Linn. Soc, X. S. W.. 1892, p.

Euprodis clirysophxa. Turner (nee Walker), Trans. Rov.

This is not the same as Walker's Abyssinian species, the 

 type of which is now before me, and it is hardly to be 

 expected that it would be ; the fore-wings of clirysoplixoj 

 are perfectly smooth dull orange colour, and the under-side 

 of both wings pale bright orange without any suffusions, 

 Avhereas lucvfuga has the fore-wings more or less covered 

 with brown irrorations, which give the wings a fuscous 

 orange appearance, and on the under-side both Avings are 

 dark brown with orange borders. 



EuPROCTIS FULVISTRIATA, nov. 



$ $ . Bright orange ochreous, with darker orange streaks in the 

 interspaces, leaving the veins pale yellow ; two indistinct pale yellow
