156 AUSTRALIAN GELECHIANAE 
with a spot beneath it ; cilia pale-brown. Hindwings and 
cilia grey-whitish. 
Distinguished by the whitish hindwings and reddish- 
brown forewings with 7 to termen. 
Q., Mt. Tambourine, in September, October and 
November ; Coolangatta in August; twelve specimens. 
LECITHOCERA ALAMPES 7. Sp. 
dhapane, dark. 
3 2. 13-17 mm. Head purple-brown, sides of crown 
whitish-ochreous, Palpi fuscous-brown, inner surface more 
or less whitish. Antenne ochreous-whitish, sometimes with 
fuscous annulations. Thorax brown with purplish reflec- 
tions. Abdomen ochreous-fuscous or ochreous. Legs 
anterior pair fuscous ; middle pair whitish ; posterior pair 
whitish above, fuscous beneath. Forewings rather narrow, 
costa very slightly arched, apex round-pointed, termen 
slightly oblique ; 7 to apex, 9 separate ; brownish-fuscous 
or fuscous; stigmata very obscure, plical beneath first 
discal, second discal double; cilia brownish-fuscous or 
fuscous. Hindwings and cilia grey. 
Differs from L. cyamitis Meyr. in the darker forewings 
with obsolescent stigmata, plical being beneath first diseal, 
and the ochreous-tinged abdomen. 
N.Q., Cairns ; N.S.W., Sydney, in April ; five specimens. 
Gen. STYLOCEROS. 
Styloceros Meyr., P.L.S., N.S.W., 1904, p. 408. 
1 am of opinion that the missing vein in the hindwing 
is not 5 but 3 or 4, which are coincident, a development from 
Lecithocera in which 3 and 4 are stalked ; secondarily 5 may 
become stalked with 4. The same remark applies to 
Sarisophora. 1 would broaden the definition of Styloceros 
as follows,—Forewings 2 and 3 connate, stalked, or coin- 
cident, 7 and 8 stalked, 7 to apex or termen, 9 sometimes 
out of 7; hindwings 3 and 4 coincident, 5 approximated, 
vonnate, or stalked with 4. Ultimately Styloceros wiil, I 
think, be merged in Sarisophora ; the two differ only in the 
length of their antenne, and by little.
