Lepidoptera from Neiv Guinea. 503 



rather dark fuscous, irregularly irrorated with ochreous-grey- 

 whitish ; markings darker fuscous, slightly ochreous-tinged, ill- 

 defined; a cloudy line from one-third of costa to two-fifths of 

 inner margin, obtusely angulated near costa ; a broader cloudy 

 median shade from middle of costa to three-fifths of inner margin, 

 nearly straight, slightly sinuate inwards on lower half; an in- 

 distinct subcrescentic dark fuscous discal mark close beyond this ; 

 a cloudy line from two-thirds of costa to three-fourths of inner 

 margin, rather irregular, cixrved outwards, sinuate inwards on 

 lower third ; a cloudy subterminal shade, parallel to hind margin 

 on lower three-fourths, but obsolete towards costa and widely 

 interrupted below middle ; cilia fuscous. Hind wings with hind 

 margin obtusely angulated in middle, where it forms a short 

 triangular projection; colour and cilia as in fore wings ; a cloudy 

 darker ochreous-fuscous angulated line at one-third ; faint indi- 

 cations of two darker posterior lines, but hardly traceable. 



One specimen {Sayer). Hyposidm vamjjyraria, Snell., 

 which 1 have not seen, is obviously nearly allied to this, 

 and presumably referable to the same genus.

Bursada placens, Pag., Jahrb. Nass. Ver., 1886, 60. 



Port Moresby {Kowald, Sayer) ; two specimens. It 

 approaches B. hasistriga, Walk., from Mysol, but is quite 

 distinct. 



Plutodes, Gn.

Plutodes discigera, Butl., Ann. Mag., 1880, 223 ; 111. 

 Het., Yi.l 80, pi. cxix., 2; P.flavescens, ibid., 3. 



Port Moresby (Kowald) ; one specimen. It is very 

 probable that this is only a form of P. cyclaria, Gn. 



SICULODID^. 

 Striglina, Gn. 



124. Striglina myrtcm, Drury. 

 One specimen {Sayer).
