236 Mr. E. Meyrick'y descriptions of 



fore wings ; veins 3, 4, 5 approximated at base, 7 out of 6 near

Separated from Dolichosticha by vein 10 of fore wings 

 rising out of 9. 



78. Epimima stereogona, n. s. 

 (J, $ , 15 — 16 mm. Head, antennae, thorax, abdomen, and legs

 curved ; second from a small spot on costa at two-thirds, almost 

 acutely angulated at two-thirds to beneath middle of disc, thence 

 again rectangularly bent to inner margin beyond middle ; a trans- 

 verse-linear dark fuscous-grey discal spot in middle ; a moderately 

 broad fuscous-grey hind-marginal band, somewhat excavated 

 irregularly from one-fourth to three-fourths, where it touches angle 

 of second line ; cilia whitish, with a strong dark fuscous line near 

 base, and indistinct grey posterior line. Hind wings ochreous- 

 whitish ; a nearly straight slender dark fuscous-grey hne from 

 beneath costa at one-third to anal angle ; a similar line from

 middle ; a moderately broad fuscous-grey hind-marginal band, 

 shortly attenuated to a point at anal angle ; cilia whitish, with a 

 dark fuscous line near base. 



Fiji (Lucas) ; two specimens.

 Palpi fuscous, beueatla white at base. Fore wings rather elongate-
