288 Mr. Warren on the Pyralidina collected 



tinge towards the hind margin ; the costa, especially along the 

 centre of the wing, broadly ochreous-yellow ; a black transverse 

 line close to the base ; a second nearly straight before the middle, 

 starting from a black spot on the costa, which interrupts the pale 

 costal streak ; the exterior line also starting from a black costal 

 spot, curving outwards for one-third, then forming three teeth, 

 running in basewards along the first median branch, and then 

 reaching the inner margin as a broader curve; orbicular stigma 

 brown edged with darker, quadrangular in shape, with a minute 

 whitish spot between it and the second line; under it another 

 roundish brown spot, also preceded by a paler one ; reniform 

 stigma kidney-shaped, with dark margin and ochreous centre, 

 followed by two whitish patches ; between the two stigmata, and 

 also broadly below them, the wing is pale ochreous-white, semi- 

 hyaline ; the exterior line is followed by two subcostal oval patches 

 of the same colour, one beneath the other, and is edged with paler 

 throughout its course between each vein. Fringe glossy grey, 

 chequered with darker, with a paler basal line, which is itself pre- 

 ceded by a row of nearly contiguous dark dashes. Hind wing 

 rather sparsely scaled, fuscous, with the costa pale ; a central dark 

 dash and an indistinct denticulate submarginal Une ; fringes as in 

 fore wing. Under side glossy, pale straw-colour, with all the 

 markings neatly and darkly conspicuous. Palpi oclireous with the 

 tips of all three joints dark brown. Thorax, patagia, and abdomen 

 greyish oclireous ; abdominal segments whitish ; the penultimate 

 and ante-penultimate segments with a streak of black. Legs 

 ochreous ; the fore legs with dark brown spots at the joints of the 

 tibiae and tarsi. Antennae finely pubescent. 



Two males. E. Madeira, May 16th, 1874. 



Lederer's description is from a ? , habitat unknown. 

 As the sexes appear to differ sHghtly, and a few points 

 are not noticed by Lederer, I have given a full descrip- 

 tion of the $ . Felder's figure of B. opalisans, from 

 St. Domingo, may possibly also be intended to represent 

 the present species.
