Polythlipta alhicaudalis, Snellen, Tyds., 23, p. 221; 

 id., 26, p. 137, pi. 8, f. 7, 7 a. 



This species is no Botys, but also not a true Poly- 

 thlipta, and the formation of a new genus for it would 

 be very suitable. I also note that the figure in the 

 * Tydschrift ' is insufficient, the colour being much too 

 reddish.

{;''• Thliptoceras calvatalis, Swin., Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond., 1890, 

 p. '2,75, is said to occur at Darjeeling, but an imperfect specimen 

 lent me by Col. Swinhoe cannot be distinguished from the above.
