Anarsia sthenarota n. sp. 



9 13 mm. Head and thorax grey suffusedly irrorated 

 white. Palpi white, second joint sprinkled gi'ey, basal 2/3 

 blackish, terminal joint with subbasal ring and nearly con- 

 fluent bands above and below middle blackish. Fore wings 

 elongate, costa slightly sinuate, apex obtuse, termen very 

 obliquely rounded; 7 and 8 out of 6; grey, suffusedly iiTorated 

 white and somewhat sprinkled dark fuscous ; two short black 

 marks along costa before and beyond 1/4, a semi-oval black spot 

 on middle of costa, and four small dark grey transverse marks 

 posteriorly ; a black dash in disc before middle, enclosed in a 

 spot of dark grey suffusion ; a round blackish dot enclosed in 

 a small spot of brown-grey suffusion towards dorsum at 1/4; 

 several cloudy blackish-grey dots along termen ; cilia grey, 

 speckled whitish. Hind wings pale grey, subhy aline, darker 

 posteriorly ; cilia whitish-grey. 



Mt. Murud, 6500 feet, one specimen. If a true Anarsia (in 

 absence of cf not absolutely certain, but probably coiTect), it is 

 the only species known to me with veins 7 and 8 of fore wings 

 out of 6 ; in Chelaria these two types of neuration (rarely 

 found together in the same genus) are equally common, but 

 never occur in the same species. 



Chelaeia agrio gramma n. sp. 



9 18 mm. Head and thorax whitish-ochreous slightly 

 sprinkled brownish, patagia mixed dark fuscous. Palpi 

 whitish, second joint on basal half banded with dark fuscous 

 irroration. with long rough projecting ochreous hairs sprinkled 

 dark fuscous from near base to near apex. Fore wings rather 

 narrow, apex obtuse-pointed, termen very obliquely rounded ; 

 6 separate, closely approximated ; whitish-ochreous, scattered 

 brownish scales; three irregular black lines suffused brown, 

 namely, one subcostal from base to near middle, one along 

 fold throughout and one from disc before 1/3 to just below apex, 

 with a branch along vein 9 ; a suffused dark fuscous streak along 

 costa from 1/4 to 3/5, cut by obhque whitish strigulae at 1/3 

 and beyond middle ; some irregular brownish suffusion towards 

 dorsum and termen; two oblique whitish strigulae from costa 

 posteriorly, edged brown and separated by a brown stria 

 running to apex with blackish dot towards apex and black 

 linear apical dot : cilia pale greyish -ochreous, on costa 

 brownish- whitish with a brown shade. Hind wings grey; cilia 

 grey-whitiah.
