114 Mr. H. T. Stainton's Descriptions of 



terminal joint i-ecurved, slender, brown at the base, the tip grey- 

 ish-ochreous. 



Anterior wings brownish, marbled with darker, and with an ill- 

 defined dark cloud along the inner margin ; scattered all over the 

 surface of the wing are numerous erect scales, one tuft near the 

 base being especially conspicuous ; cilia brownish. Posterior 

 wings greyish-brown, with paler cilia. 



A single specimen is before me, taken near Calcutta by Mr. 

 Atkinson. It is not in first-rate condition, but it has such a 

 striking appearance, that I thought it better to describe it. 



3. Cerostoma albofasciella, n. sp. 



Alis anticis brunneis, fascia lata media dorsum versus repan- 

 data alba, macula costse subapicalis, alteraque marginis 

 postici albis. 



Exp. al. 5 lin. 



A strikingly distinct species, different from anything else we 

 know. 



Head and face whitish-brown ; palpi rather whiter, the tuft of 

 the second joint thick but not long, tinged with brownish exter- 

 nally, terminal joint white. Antennae thick, pale brownish. 



Anterior wings brown, marbled with darker, with a conspicuous 

 broad white fascia in the middle, broadest on the inner margin, 

 its inner edge being rather angulated, and its outer edge oblique ; 

 on the costa towards the apex is a small white spot, and a more 

 elongate one lies on the hind margin : in one specimen I have be- 

 fore me these white markings are slightly suffused with very pale 

 fuscous, and a small brownish spot lies on the inner margin to- 

 wards the outer edge of the fascia ; cilia pale brown, intersected 

 by two whitish dashes below the apex. Posterior wings pale 

 grey, with paler cilia. 



I have before me two specimens, collected by Mr. Atkinson 

 near Calcutta. 



4. Anarsia Candida, n. sp. 



Alis anticis niveis, nebulis brunnescentibus, maculis duabus disci 

 plumbeis, una ante, altera pone medium. 



Exp. al. 6 lin. 



A most lovely insect, totally unlike any known Anarsia or Ge- 

 lechia, but has some slight resemblance to some Tortrices of the 

 genus Eupcecilia. 



Head and face snowy white. Palpi white ; terminal joint black
