Camptogeamma, Stephens. 



The antennae of this genus are simple in both sexes ; 

 the palpi, as in Coremia, form a short beak in front of 

 the head.

"February, March and April."— T. E. 



This species is nearly allied to C.fluviata of Europe, 

 but differs in the strongly-defined band across the pri- 

 maries ; it varies from laky ferruginous to testaceous in 

 the ground colour of these wings. 



111. Camptogramma ? cluhia, n. s. 



Aspect of Coremia, but with simple antennae in both 

 sexes ; dark greyish brown ; primaries not unlike Coremia 

 ferrugata in pattern, but much broader, and with the 

 central belt extending, at its inferior extremity, almost 

 to the external angle ; this belt is of a dull clay-colour, 

 traversed by black lines with a pale buff costal patch and 

 a white spot at the end of the cell ; it is bounded exter- 

 nally by a white stripe, traversed by a grey line, which 

 is again followed by an interrupted dark grey band with 

 imperfect white external edge ; external border greyish, 

 with an elliptical black subapical spot ; a marginal series 

 of small black spots in pairs ; fringe of all the wings 

 whitish, traversed by a dark brown stripe ; under surface 

 shining dark grey ; an externally whitish-edged dusky 

 band just beyond the middle in all the wings ; a sub- 

 marginal series of white dots ; a marginal black line 

 interrupted at the extremities of the nervures, and a 

 white line at the base of the fringe. Expanse of wings, 

 21 mm. 



"Valparaiso, in February." — T. E. 



A pale variety occurs in which the dark grey post- 

 median band is very distinctly spotted with black along 

 its outer border. 



The front wings of this species are rather broad for 

 Camptogramma, and the pattern is that of Coremia.
