a 
266 Lord Walsingham on the Tortricide, 
their outer sides with brownish fuscous. Fore wings 
narrow, elongate (with the apical margin oblique, the 
extreme apex rounded), brownish fuscous, with a very 
faint plum-coloured gloss; speckled about the base of 
the fold and costal margin with whitish grey scales, as 
also about the costal margin on the apical fourth of the 
wing. Cilia dark brownish fuscous, slightly speckled 
with greyish, and with a narrow pale ochreous line 
along their base, continued around the anal angle. 
Hind wings and cilia shining pale grey, with a very 
faint purplish tinge; a narrow faint ochreous line 
running along the base of the cilia. Expanse, 14 mm. 
One specimen in Mr. Gooch’s collection. 
Ypsolophus straminis, n.s. (Pl. XIL., fig. 36). 
Capite et thorace dilute stramineis. Antennis supra 
dilute punctatis. Palpis dilute stramineis externe pur- 
purascentibus ; articulo secundo incrassato plene vestito, 
apicali oblique projecto nec erecto, tenui. Alis anticis 
dilute stramineis ; macula discali in medio et striga paulo 
ante marginem apicalem ferrugineis, squamis metallicis 
cyaneo-purpureis adspersis. Posticis dilute subcinereo-

Head and thorax pale straw-colour. Antenne pale 
straw-colour, faintly dotted above with fuscous. Palpi

densely clothed, laterally compressed; the apical joint 
projecting rather obliquely, not erect, slender. Fore 
wings pale straw-colour, having a pale ferruginous shade 
lying obliquely parallel to and near the apical margin, 
extending to the apex, but not quite to the anal angle, 
containing throughout its length bright bluish purple 
metallic scales ; ; a ferruginous elongate discal spot about 
the middle of the wing, also containing some bright 
bluish purple metallic scales; between this discal spot 
and the anal angle is a faint streak of ferruginous-brown 
scales, another slight streak of the same colour beyond 
the middle of the cell, reaching to the dark marginal 
shade. Hind wings pale rather cinereous straw-colour.
