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

 38 mm. 



Trachea leucopicta, sp. n. Plate II. 



This species falls anionji; 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-wing black, 

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

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

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

 margin; the orbicular and rcniform 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-iving greenish with purple blotches; ante- 

 median and postmedian lines pale with darker margins; rcniform 

 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 

 base; a faintly darker lunule and on the underside a dark stria. 

 Exp. 32 mm. 



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 cojipcry 

 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 rcniform 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.
