Equatorial African Micro-lepidoptera. a7 
Hab. French Congo—Kangwé, Ogowé River (Rev. 
A. C. Good); two specimens. 
In comparing this species with the better-known 
Eccopsis wahlbergiana, Z., it may be distinguished by the 
somewhat longer palpi, by the stronger costal marks on 
the basal half of the forewings, by the less conspicuous 
dorsal shading and by the hindwings being of a much 
lighter and more cupreous colour, as well as by its some- 
what larger size. 
Ancytis, Hb. 
(= PHOXOPTERIS, T'r.) 
Ancylis argenticiliana, sp.n. (PI. IIT., fig. 22.) 
Antenne (¢) rather stout, simple; stone-grey. Palpi very 
closely appressed to the face, the short apical joint scarcely pro- 
jecting beyond it; stone-grey. Head stone-grey. Thorax pale 
olive-grey. Forewings, costa evenly arched, apical margin strongly 
indented on vein 6; pale olive-grey, with a few inconspicuous darker 
mottlings indicating a pale basal patch at one-third, its irregular 
outer edge slightly oblique, nearer to the base on the costa than on 
the dorsum; from the middle of the costa a slender umber-brown 
line (slightly convex outwardly below the middle of the wing) 
extends obliquely to the dorsum within the tornus ; this is followed 
by a paler space extending to the termen, showing a silvery sheen 
with a few slender lines of black scales following the nervules across 
it in the direction of the apex, this space is narrowed towards its 
costal extremity by an oblique brown line extending from the 
indentation on the termen inwards and upwards to the costa and 
along the base of the cilia both upwards and downwards ; above it 
the costa before the apex is chestnut-brown, with three or four 
slender oblique silvery-white streaks, a faint indication of smaller 
streaks can be traced along the whole of the outer two-thirds of the 
costa ; cilia pure silvery-white, tending to greyish about the tornus, 
and tipped along their upper half with chestnut-brown. Exp. al., 
17mm. Hindwings stone-greyish, with scarcely paler cilia, a very 
faint line along their base. Abdomen stone-greyish. Legs pale 
stone-grey, inclining to ochreous.
