Lepidoptera from Neiv Guinea. 481 



afterwards continued as broad cloudy longitiidinal streaks to hind 

 margin above middle and to anal angle respectively ; second line 

 fine, silvery-whitish, irregularly sinuate and curved, moderately 

 angulated in middle and at one-fourth from costa, margined on 

 both sides with dark fuscous, anteriorly forming a cloudy suffusion 

 tending to be produced in wedge-shaped streaks along veins ; a 

 slender regularly dentate silvery-whitish subterminal line, beyond 

 which hind margin is dark fuscous on upper half; cilia whitish- 

 ochreous, barred with dark fuscous. Hind wings with hind 

 margin rounded ; colour and markings as in fore wings, but lines 

 on basal area obsolete, median line straight. 



Port Moresby {Kowald) ; one specimen. 



Eemodes, Gn. 



78. Eemodes melanoceros, n. s. 

 $ , 30 mm. Head and thorax light dull green, with a white 

 spot behind eyes. Palpi 3, dull green, base white beneath. 

 Antenna blackish-grey, extreme base ochreous-whitish. Legs 

 pale greyish-ochreous (abdomen and posterior legs broken). Fore 

 wings with costa rather strongly arched, hind margin strongly 

 rounded, very oblique ; pale dull whitish-green, with about fourteen 

 subdentate more or less curved deeper green transverse Imes. 

 partially and irregularly marked with black ; a black discal dot 

 before middle ; a hind-marginal series of large black dots ; ciUa 

 ochreous-whitish. Hind wings small, narrow, hind margin 

 rounded; whitish- ochreous-grey. 



Port Moresby {Kowald) ; one specimen. I have it 

 also from Queensland. Closely allied to R. elaica, Meyr., 

 but readily separated by the wholly blackish antennae. 



MONOCTENIAD^. 



I propose to apply this name to the family formerly 

 termed (Enochromidas, as on recent revision of the 

 genera I find that the genus CEnochroma, Gn., is non- 

 existent, being only a synonym of Monoctenia. 



EuMELEA, Jard. 

 79. Eumelea fiorinata, Gn. 

 One specimen (Sayer).
