fore wing less distinct, except round the cell, where it is 

 broadened and nearly confluent with a broad, cinnamon 

 discal lunule. Hind wing and underside slightly darker than 

 in the cT, the latter \\ithout the pale spot on costa of 

 fore wing. 



Mt. Murud, 6000-6500 feet, October— 1 cf. 6 9 ; 6500 feet, 

 November — 1 9 ; November — 1 9 . without data (or illegi- 

 ble)— 3 9. 



Differs in neuration both from albihasalis and temperata 

 in the long stalking of R". R'^ of fore wing, which in the cf 

 is nearly as in a typical HydriUodes and is quite strong in 

 the 9 ; in both sexes SC^ is given off somewhat earlier ; 

 R' normal. On account of the palpus and the long stalking 

 of R^. R^ this and another (undescribed) species should be 

 regarded as belonging to a distinct section or subgenus of 

 Echanella, but for the present, at least, they may well ]>e 

 regarded as congeneric, the two groups having much in 

 common.

Domolocha Jicrfja Swinh., A.M.X.H. (7) viii, p. 20, 1901, Andaman.'^. 



Mt. Murud. 6000--6500 feet. November— 1 cT ; Novem- 

 ber— 1 9 . 



In "Moths of India," vol. iii, and in Coll. Brit. Mus.. 

 this species is sunk to icouicalis Wlkr. (Ceylon). As the genus 

 Hypena is at present unworked in the Joicey collection 1 

 cannot offer any definite opinion as to whether this sinking 

 is correct ; nor is it at all certain whether Sarawak specimens 

 agree perfectly with specimens from Andamans ; but as the 

 Mt. Murud specimens seem nearer to herpa than to either 

 of the other types placed by Hampson under iconicalis it has 

 seemed best to employ that name. Hampson gives India, 

 Ceylon, Burma. Java. Rula and Mysol as localities for 

 iconicalis.

This species does not seem to have been recorded from any 

 other locality than Sarawak. Quite interesting.
