26 Mr. Edward Meyrick on a collection 
TINEID. 
28. Adela satrapodes, sp. n. 
9. 16mm. Head ferruginous, face indigo-blue. Palpi and 
antennx violet-black. Thorax metallic indigo-blue. Forewings 
moderate, posteriorly dilated, costa moderately arched, apex 
obtuse, hindmargin very obliquely rounded ; deep shining indigo- 
blue; a broad bright orange fascia before middle, finely black- 
margined ; some scattered black scales beyond this, tending to 
form a transverse parallel line : cilia indigo-blue, tips round apex 
violet. Hindwings deep purple ; cilia bronzy-fuscous, 
Hab. Fort Stedman; two specimens. 
29. Melasina invariella, Walk. (Torna). 
Hab. Koni. 
30. Melasina ochrocoma, sp. n. 
a2. 22—26 mm. Head pale yellow-ochreous, face fuscous. 
Palpi dark fuscous, apex whitish ochreous. Antenne fuscous, 
pectinations in ¢ 6, in @ 2. Thorax and abdomen fuscous. 
Forewings rather elongate, somewhat dilated posteriorly, apex 
obtuse, hindmargin rather oblique ; light fuscous, mixed with 
whitish-fuscous and darker fuscous, tending to form faint 
strigule ; a darker fuscous suffusion tending to form a_ basal 
patch, a transverse spot from inner margin beyond middle, and a 
fascia from costa beyond middle to anal angle, but all very faint 
and sometimes obsolete: cilia whitish-fuscous, with a cloudy 
fuscous line. Hindwings fuscous, in @ paler; cilia as in fore- 
wings. 
Hab. Joni, Mone; six specimens. 
Tt belongs to the group called Alavona by Walker, 
which I do not think sufficiently distinct to be separated 
from Melasina; from its nearest allies it is separated 
by the yellowish head. 
Tatsizima, Walk. 
Head rough-haired ; ocelli present ; tongue obsolete. Antennze 
over 1, broadly and flatly compressed, joints closely set, simple in 
both sexes, basal joint short, without pecten. Labial palpi rather 
long, curved, ascending, second joint with dense more or less 
roughly projecting scales or hairs beneath, with some long bristles 
near apex, terminal joint shorter than second, with appressed
