with dark-fuscous, which forms an ill-defined basal patch, dentate 
postmedian line, and terminal line, cilia dark-fuscous, apices 
ochreous interrupted with fuscous. Hind wings with termen 
rounded; orange-ochreous with scanty dark-fuscous irroration 
towards termen, cilia concolorous. 
2. Head, thorax, palpi, antenne, legs, and abdominal tuft 
whitish; wings represented by narrow linear-lanceolate whitish

Sale. 
CIRPHIS DASYCNEMA, SP. NOV. 
CaguKYy pO, with hairy shins. 
$2, 36-40 mm. Head, thorax, and palpi grey-whitish, with

whitish, towards termen suffused with fuscous; cilia whitish, 
purplish-tinged except towards tornus, with a fuscous median line. 
Very similar to Cirphis ciliata, Wlk., from which it may be 
readily distinguished (1) by the ¢ fore legs, (2) by the postmedian 
line on fore wings being single, not double. 
Type in coll., Turner. 
Queensland: Brisbane, in February and May. Three specimens.

broadly separate from base and costa; an irregularly triangular 
spot on costa beyond middle; smaller spots with very irregular
