Hind-wing ochreous, darker round the margins, fringes pale. Exp. 

 38 mm. 



Trachea leucopicta, sp. n. Plate II. 



This species falls among the section in which the males 

 have lateral tufts of hair on the abdomen. 



Head, palpi, and legs black, with white spots, antennae chest- 

 nut; thorax black with a dorsal white streak, and white on the 

 patagia and back of collar; abdomen ochreous, inclined to fuscous 

 above, the crests darker, tipped with white. Fore-iving black, 

 with white markings, the median area partly suffused with lilac, 

 an irregular three-lobed white blotch at base ; the antemedian line 

 white, angulated, and running into a square white spot on inner 

 margin; the orbicular and reniform stigmata black with white 

 margins. A large white blotch fills the remainder of the wing 

 beyond the postmedian line, but it is interrupted by a square patch 

 of black at the apex, with two white spots in it, and by an irregular 

 black patch at anal angle which is connected to the central area. 

 Hind-wing fuscous, but whitish at anal angle. Exp. 40 mm. 



Elaeodes proteoides, sp. n. Plate I. 



Head, palpi, antennae, and collar, pale pinkish ochreous; legs 

 the same colour, with tarsi ringed with darker, the long hairs on 

 tibiae paler. Fore-wing greenish with purple blotches ; ante- 

 median and postmedian lines pale with darker margins; reniform 

 and orbicular stigmata with some pink and darker markings, out- 

 lined by a pale line ; a row of subterminal black dashes, fringes 

 spotted. Hind-wing brownish with pale fringe, and paler at the

Hypocalymnia gloriosa, sp. n. Plate IV. 



The venation of the hind-wing does not agree with Hampson's 

 figure, p. 186, in this insect there is a distinct vein 5 from just 

 above the lower angle of cell. Head and thorax greyish ochre- 

 ous, legs, antennae, and palpi reddish ochreous. Fore-wing coppery 

 shot with purple; an angulated pale stripe starting from thorax 

 below costa reaches to inner margin, and turns at the hind margin, 

 gradually becoming narrower; it is bordered on the outside by a 

 chestnut semicircular line; the orbicular and reniform stigmata 

 are of the same colour, and towards the hind margin on the disc 

 are two small dark dashes. Hind-wing and fringes pale ochreous, 

 Exp. 40 mm.
