LitHocouuetis, Zeller. 
Tithocolletis zulella, n.s. (Pl. XIIL., fig. 44). 
Capite palpis et antennis albis. Alis anticis cervinis 
puncto apicali nigro. Strigis dorsalibus duabus albis 
prima a basi secunda a medio, strigulis costalibus 
brevioribus albis ultra medium concurrentibus. Posticis 
cinereis. 
Head, antenne, and palpi white; thorax white, with 
a fawn-brown streak down the middle. Fore wings 
fawn-brown, with two dorsal and two smaller costal 
streaks ; the first dorsal streak, starting from the base, 
joins the first costal streak, starting beyond the middle, 
at an acute angle on the costal half of the wing; the 
second dorsal streak, starting from the middle of the 
dorsal margin, joins the second costal streak, starting on 
the apical fourth of the wing (also at an acute angle) 
immediately before the apex, on which is a black spot ; 
a few blackish scales are to be found between the costal 
streaks, also on the outer edge of the first and inner edge 
of the second dorsal streaks. Hind wings and cilia 
cinereous. Hixpanse, 11 mm. 
One in Mr. Gooch’s collection. 
PTEROPHORIDA. 
AapistEs, Hiibner. 
Agdistes pustulalis, Walk., Cat. Lep. Het., B. M., xxx., 
pp. 927, 928. 
This species is represented in the Gooch collection by 
a single specimen. 
It is probably very nearly allied to Agdistes heydenit, 
Zeller, having an indication of the fuscous dots and 
cuneiform shade which distinguish that species. I 
have seen no specimens in a condition which would 
warrant a re-description.

Amblyptilus cosmodactylus, Hiib., Wocke Cat., No. 8181.

Svensk. Vetens. Akad., 1852, p. 117. 
Oxyptilus direptalis, Walk., Cat. Lep. Het., B. M., xxx.,

This is most probably the species recorded by Professor 
Zeller from South Africa as Amblyptilus acanthodactylus.
