386 Mr. E. Meyrick ow New Lepidoptera 
XANTHORHOER, Hiib. 
X. lophogramia, sp. n. 
S 27mm. Head and thorax grey-whitish, irrorated with fus- 
cous and black. Antennal pectinations, a7, 08. Forewings with 
termen slightly waved, oblique ; fuscous-whitish, irrorated with 
fuscous ; a stria near base, and edge of basal patch dark fuscous, 
curved ; median band formed by two fasciz of three suffused dark 
fuscous strize each, outermost blackish, anterior edge curved, 
posterior edge with a rectangular projection at + from costa and a 
broader rounded prominence in middle, indentation between these 
rounded-angular, abrupt ; fifth fascia indicated by a fuscous costal 
suffusion ; sixth suffusedly fuscous, with a triangular blackish- 
fuscous spot below apex, edged above with a whitish-ochreous 
suffusion: cilia fuscous, terminal half obscurely spotted with 
whitish. Hindwings dull ochreous-yellowish. 
Castle Hiil; one specimen (G. V. Hudson). At first 
sight very similar to X. semifissata, but the peculiar form 
of the posterior edge of median band is distinctive; the 
pale strive beyond this band are much less defined. 
Nororeas, Meyr. 
N. isoleuca, sp. 0. 
2 20mm. Head and thorax ochreous-yellow, mixed with black. 
Forewings with termen bowed, rather oblique; dark fuscous, 
irregularly sprinkled with yellow ; a cloudy transverse streak of 
yellow irroration near base, and another of yellow and white 
scales near beyond it, bent near costa; a curved white streak 
at 4, suffused with yellow on costa and in middle; a rather 
irregular tolerably straight white streak in middle, suffused with 
yellow towards costa, middle, and dorsum; a white streak at 2, 
obtusely angulated in middle, yellow on costa ; subterminal line 
very fine, yellow, irregular, forming small spots on costa and in 
middle : cilia white, basal half fuscous. Hindwings as in fore- 
wings, but first three streaks obsolete, other two nearer base, post- 
median curved, hardly angulated. 
Wellington; one specimen (G. V. Hudson). Nearly 
allied to N. mechanitis, but differing especially in the 
single well-defined median streak, which in N. mecha- 
nitis 18 replaced by two cloudy streaks of yellowish 
suffusion.
