210 Mr. E. Meyrick's descriptions of 



median shade ; second line at three-fourths, slender, indistinct, 

 irregular, sharply dentate, fuscous, marked with black dots on 

 veins ; a hind-marginal row of black dots ; cilia whitish ochreous. 

 Hind wings moderate, hind margin rounded, crenate, tooth on 

 vein 5 much smaller than rest ; colour and markings as in fore 

 wings, except discal spot, which is rather small, suboval, black, 

 with a white centre. 



Fiji (Lucas) ; one specimen. 



BOARMIAD^. 



Fore wings : 7 rising out of 9, Hind wings : 5 absent, 8 usually 

 free.

Face smooth. Palpi moderate, slender, smooth, ascending, 

 terminal joint very short, porrected. Antennae two-thirds of fore 

 wings, in male (?). Thorax somewhat hairy beneath. Posterior 

 tibiiT3 (in female) with median spurs at three-lifths, short, terminal 

 spurs wholly absent ; posterior tarsi with four pairs of fine spines 

 on basal joint (at base, one-fifth, three-fifths, and apex). Fore 

 wings with vein 6 almost from a point with 9, 10 absent, 11 free. 

 Hind wings with veins 3 and 4 short-stalked, 6 and 7 from near 

 together, 8 with a strong basal fork, and connected with 7 near 

 base above this by a short bar. 



The structure of vein 8 of the hind wings is exceed- 

 ingly curious, and the origin of its basal furcation 

 remains to be explained.

 throe dark brown obscure lines, nearly pai'allel to hind margin, 

 first before one-fourth, second before middle, third beyond middle ;
