570 APPENDIX. 



suffusion wliicli extends rather indistinctly and (apparently) irre- 

 gularly along the " central cross-veins " to the hind border of the 

 wing, by way of the posterior cross-vein and tlie apical section of 

 tbe 5tb longitudinal vein. Anterior cross-vein a little before the 

 middle of the discal cell, the posterior cross-vein exactly at the 

 middle ; the 3rd longitudinal vein begins a short distance before 

 the fork of the 2ud, its basal section being in a line with the 

 anterior cross-A^ein ; the petiole of the 2nd posterior cell distinctly 

 shorter than the cell ; the 3rd and 4th posterior cells nearly twice 

 as lojig as the discal cell : all the veins on distal part of wing 

 approximately parallel and eqiiidistant. ITalteres brown. 



Lenr/th 6 milliin. 



Described from a single specimen from the Nilgiri Hills, 

 6000 ft., V. 1911 (//. L. Audrewes). 



Type in the Indian Museum. 



The sex is uncertain, owing to the tip of the abdomen being 

 broken off. This species is easily known from the other two by 

 the conspicuously marked wings. 



Limnophila honesta, sp. nov. 



2 . Head wholly moderately dark grey, with some black hairs 

 above; antennae and palpi brownish yellow. The head is rather 

 elongate behind, and placed on a distinct neck. Thorax mode- 

 rately dark grey, with three rather indistinct brownish stripes, 

 the median one attaining the anterior margin ; a black spot placed 

 in a small pit-like depression behind the shoulders; sides of thorax 

 lighter yellowish. Scutelhini concolorons with dorsum of thorax; 

 mesonotum darker. Abdomen moderately dark bro\\n, with very 

 sparsely scattered shoi"t pale hairs. Belly yellowish ; ovipositor 

 brownish yellow. Legs brownish yellow ; coxte and femora 

 towards base lighter, tarsi darker. Wiiu/s pale grey. Anterior 

 branch of 4th longitudinal vein simple, so that, thei'e are only four 

 posterior cells ; marginal cross-vein a little before the fork of the 

 2nd longitudinal vein ; posterior cross-vein a little beyond base of 

 discal cell, nearly opposite the anterior cross-voin ; 2nd and 3rd' 

 posterior cells subequal, about one and a half times as long as the 

 oblong discal cell. 



Lenr/th millim. 



Described from one female from Almora, 5500 ft., Kumaon, 

 5, vii. 11 (^Paiva), 



Type in the Indian Museum. 



This species is easily recognised from all other Indian ones by 

 possessing only four instead of five posterior cells. 



Eriocera cingulata, sp. nov, 



(S . Head blackish grey, the subconical protuberance on the 

 frons apparently bisected in front, and with a little grey sheen 

 below. The 1st scapal joint of the antennae long, black, the 2nd
