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



14, Bulal'is triocellata, n. sp. 



Alisanticis purpureo-griseis, dilute oclireo-punctatis, striatisque, 

 vitta (loisali fusca, maculis tribus disci brunneis, ochreo- 

 cinctis. 



Exp. al. 7—8 lin. 



Not closely allied to any known species, and perhaps, con- 

 sidering the form of the abdomen, hardly a true Butalis, but the 

 ovate form of the posterior wings prevents its being associated 

 with Gclechia. It varies a little in size, but not otherwise. 



Head and face greyish-ochreous. Palpi slender, recurved, not 

 long. Antennse brownish. 



Anterior wings purplish-grey, spotted and streaked with yellovv- 

 ish-ochreous, with the inner margin brownish, and with three oval 

 brown spots edged with pale ochreous, in the middle of the wing, 

 the first and third on the disc, the second on the fold ; a dark 

 brown line runs round the apex of the wing ; cilia pale ochreous. 

 Posterior wings brownish-grey, with paler cilia. 



Abdomen greyish-ochreous. 



Taken by Mr. Atkinson, near Calcutta, on the trunk o£ Nauclea 

 Orient alls. 



15. Gracilarial auricilla, n. sp. 



Alis anticis brunneis, dilute ochraceo-marmoratis, maculis dua- 

 bus costae pone medium nigris, apice aureo, dorso squamis 

 brunneis tridentato. 



Exp. al. S^ lin. 



A singular insect, combining the characters of Gracilaria and 

 Chauliodus. By the form of the wings and antennse it would cer- 

 tainly be a Gracilaria; the maxillary palpi are slightly developed, 

 but the labial palpi seem scarcely pointed enough for Gracilaria ; 

 the three distinct tufts of scales projecting from the inner margin 

 of the anterior wings remind one excessively of Chauliodus ; the 

 markings of the anterior wings are peculiar, and the tawny golden 

 apex is nearly the colour of that in Lithocolletis Messaniella. 



Head dark grey-brown, face more ochreous. Maxillary palpi 

 pale ochreous; labial palpi dark brown, a pale spot at the base 

 and tip of the terminal joint. Antennae much longer than the 

 anterior wings, brown, with pale annulations, the apical third 

 paler. 



Anterior wings brown, marbled with pale ochreous, and with 

 three or four semi-distinct pale ochreous transverse lines ; the
