410 Mr. Butler's descriptions of Lepidoptera- 



branches forlving from anterior angle of the cell, a slender vein- 

 like longitudinal fold passing through the cell to outer margin; 

 disco-cellulars transverse, nearly straight ; radial and second and 

 third median branches emitted close together at the posterior angle 

 of the cell ; body very robust ; palpi long, slender, curving upwards 

 to above the level of the head ; posterior femora flattened and 

 longitudinally grooved; tibiae broad, flattened, thickly scaled, 

 bearing two pairs of unequal divergent spm's. 



48. Eurijthmus hryopldloides, n. s. 

 Primaries above pale sandy brownish, irrorated with fuliginous- 

 brown, and with longitudinal pale sienna streaks along the veins ; 

 markings not unlike those on the primaries of Diatenes gerula, 

 dark brown and black ; a dentate-sinuate blackish submarginal 

 Une ; fruige greyish, with a series of blackish spots opposite to the 

 siuuations of the submarginal line ; secondaries cream-coloured, 

 becoming pearl-white at costa ; external border pale bronze-brown, 

 diffused, a paler marginal dash near anal angle ; a marginal sub- 

 confluent series of dusky lunules ; fringe creamy white ; body above 

 whitish, front of thorax and collar irrorated with dark brown 

 scales ; under surface pearl-white ; wings sericeous greyish towards 

 external borders ; a marginal series of grey-edged white triangular 

 spots; primaries with the costal margin black-spotted towards 

 apex. Expanse of wings, 28 mm. 



Peak Downs. 



GiRPA, Walker. 



Nearly allied to PoUjdesma, and therefore incorrectly 

 referred to the Eefnigiidce. 



49. Girpa maxima, n. s. 



Testaceous ; wings somewhat sericeous ; two brown dots, one 

 above the other near the base, a third within the cell beyond these, 

 a series across the basal fourth, the lowest of them blackish ; 

 reniform spot indicated by pale reddish-brown dots ; an ill-defined 

 greyish stripe across the middle, followed by an ill-defined zigzag 

 denlated line ; a discal trisinuated subconfliient series of more or 

 less triangular pale-centrod ferruginous spots, towards apex passing 

 into a cuneiform apical red-brown patch, crossed by a series of 

 whitish scales ; external margin and fringe suffused with red- 

 brown ; a marginal series of blackish dots ; secondaries similar in 

 pattern to the primaries ; head and collar tmted with reddish 

 brown ; primaries below greyish, excepting towards outer margin,
