201. Coptohasis ? cemealis. 



Botys cemealis, Walker, Cat., 18, p. 671. 



A female. I expect that the male will prove that this 

 species is a Coptohasis, and therefore mention it here. 

 The colour of the upper side agrees with that of the bulk 

 of the species of the genus, but the apex of fore wings is 

 rather obtuse, and they have, at the origin of the second 

 line, very near to the costa, a distinct yellowish white 

 reniform or bean-shaped mark ; the hind wings have a 

 whitish discal line, the central part of which is effaced. 

 First line and discal streak of fore wings dark.

202. Diplotyla exuvialis, nov. spec. 



A male of 25 mm. expanse. 



Shape of wings the same as in my ^diodes ? orientalis, Tyds. 

 V. Ent., 23, p. 233, and 27, pi. 4, f. 3, 3 a, 3&, which is much better 

 placed in Mr. Meyrick's new genus Diplotyla. The body, how- 

 ever, is more slender, the abdomen longer, and the antennae have 

 only one tooth-like projection at two-thirds. Antennae whitish, 

 distinctly ciliated. Palpi rather narrow, recurved, their terminal 

 joint distinct, truncated; they are bicolorous, whitish and fuscous, 

 as the front ; vertex obscure ochreous. Upper side of body and 

 wings dark fuscous ; the fore wings have at two-thirds towards the 

 costa an indistinct ochreous spot, but are otherwise unmarked, as 

 well as the hind wings. Fringes cinereous brown, whitish m cell 

 1 6 of fore wing and 1 d and 2 of hind wings. Abdomen twice as 

 long as the inner margin of hind wings. Under side paler, more 

 greyish, the body and legs whitish. Veins 8 — 10 of fore wings 

 are stalked, and the maxillary palpi present, though very short.
