of the Australian Pyralidina. 295 



Phalangiodes ncptls, Cr. 

 Phalcsna neptis, Cr., 264, F. ; Phalangiodes neptisalis, 



Gn., 279. 

 Brisbane, Queensland ; one specimen received from 

 Mr. W. H. Miskin; the British Museum has also 

 Australian specimens. Occurs also in Ceylon, India, 

 and South America. 



Lepyrodes, Gn. 



Not having my specimens at hand I cannot give the 

 full characters at present. The antennae are as long as 

 the fore wings; the maxillary palpi are stated by 

 Guenee to be absent, but this is probably erroneous, as 

 in many other cases. 



Nearly allied to Phalangiodes, but without its abnormal 

 structures. 



Lepyrodes geometralis, Gn. 



Lepyrodes geometralis, Gn., 278, pi. viii., 6. 



Duaringa, Queensland ; received from Mr. G. Barnard. 

 Occurs also in Java, China, Ceylon, and Mauritius. 



EUCLASTA, Ld. 



I have not obtained the Australian species, and can 

 add nothing to the characters given by Lederer. _ The 

 antenna are here markedly longer than the fore wings. 



Euclasta maceratalis, Ld. 



Euclasta maceratalis, Ld., 481, pi. xv., 11. 



Eastern Australia. Besides Lederer's described types 

 there are specimens (unnamed) in the British Museum. 

 The species is certainly very close to E. splendidalis, 

 H.-S. 



Pachyarches, Ld. 



Forehead flat, oblique. Ocelli present. Tongue well developed. 

 Antenna more than three-fourths of fore wings, in male stout 

 towards base, filiform, evenly cihated H — i), sharply excavated 

 above basal joint, basal joint stout, with a strong erect projection 

 of scales in front of excavation. Labial palpi rather long, straight, 

 porrected, triangularly scaled, terminal joint lying in scales of 

 second. Maxillary palpi rather short, dilated with dense scales
